Falkland oil find

[Bassman62]

Let's hope we don't have to go to war with the argies again or we're going to struggle to be effective with no carrier to give us air cover.

Don't think that the argies would stomach another ass kicking.

Let's hope the islanders benefit from these finds.

Another reason to thank Maggie. The oil revenue will help get the UK out of the mess Blair's illegal war got you guys in.

Don't be worried about the defence of the islands, our hunter killer subs are more then likely circling the place like a school of hungry sharks.

I did wonder why the Argies woudl bother trying to capture the most pointless place on earth, now we know.

A friend in the industry has told me the new find's potential is significantly bigger than the North Sea field.

 

The South Americans haven't stopped playing games since 1982 - it might be interesting to see if they take advantage of our lack of carriers over the next few years.

Maybe they will have a world cup there..

its only a matter of time before the U.S. claim the falklands are a hot bed of terrorism and invade.

So what happened to my share of the North Sea Gas & Oil proceeds?

Because at the time it was in full flow the country was in a right financial state.

So where did all the money go and where will all the Falklands oil revenue go?

All the North Sea Oil revenue went on financing the unelployment and benefits payments to 'Maggies millions' as they shut down the country's industries.
