As a gesture of peace should we give up The Faulkland Islands?

@FreddieUK Can we afford to defend it?
Our priority must surely be against Putin.

Also it has connotations with Andrew, formally known as Prince.

The UK had a referendum to leave the EU. See what damage that did.

@peterlee All good points. I think the problem we are lumbered with from our colonial past is that we told the Falkland islanders that they would be British until they decided they wanted something else. It does give us a presence down there and perhaps as importantly, deprives others.

@FreddieUK True. China will continually show an increasing influence in South America.now that Brazil is a BRICS Nation. But as we know China works slowly, like an increasing juggernaut.

Nor, must we forget the British Troops, who fought bravely, and some bare the scars today.

The Islanders of course, could be repatriated , probably in Scotland. Their ancestry is there.
