Looks like there has been some sabre rattling from Argentina's President as she tries to use the 30th anniversary of the Falklands/Malvinas (depending which side of the fence you are) to score domestic political points.

"The prime minister told Ms Fernandez de Kirchner she should "respect the views" of islanders who are taking part in a referendum on the issue of control... "I am not proposing a full discussion now on the Falklands but I hope you have noted that they are holding a referendum and you should respect their views."..."

Mr Cameron is going up in my expectations

I love the comment from Nick Robinson:

"This was what Churchill called jaw jaw not war war but it was diplomatic posturing designed for domestic consumption
