Falklands Referendum

Not much doubt which way the vote will go

Quote:

The Falkland Islands are to hold a referendum on their "political status" in a bid to end the continuing dispute with Argentina over their sovereignty.

The vote will be held in the first half of 2013, the Falklands government said

No doubt whatsoever - but if the argentinian president needs any consoling after the results, she can come to my house. I'll uhm.... cheer her up!

So when do the people in Hong Kong get to vote on their future?

Herr-Berbunch · 06-13-12, 09:34 AM

Hong Kong long gone. Gibraltar next, but we'll wait until the Spanish economy is in a worse state.

Or St. Helena. Diego Garcia. A handful-or-so others.

Or, and here is the important bit, British Antarctic Territory - give the penguins the vote. But not 'our' Penguin.
