The next round has commenced. Barely a week after more oil was confirmed off the Falklands than Mercosur agree to close it's ports to ships flying the Falkland's flag (a small fishing fleet), confirming Uruguay's decision to do so last week..."...the Malvinas constitute the only remaining European colonial enclave in Latin America". They 'Desire the Right' to own them (geddit?). A Foreign Office message read "Nor we or the Falklands will yield to those pretending to intimidate or blackmail the Islands". Well, after the Euro veto, 'Britain is a Christian country' speeches etc it now seems there's a new opportunity for Cameron to be a real Conservative. (I'm joking!...a bit)

Yes, it's all a bit deja vu isn't it.
