Wait a minute this doesn't make sense.

It seems we are going to have celebrations for the 25th anniversary of the Falkland War. Read more here.

Now if I remember correctly didn't we take away the us and them philosophy when we did the old red and blue thing a few months ago. It was not the French against the English but now it's OK for British against Argentinean over a conflict that many people must still feel very strongly about due to the fact their relatives died then while they are still alive and remembering.

To be honest I have no difficulty with the remembrance of the Falklands but don't understand why we couldn't celebrate the other the same way. Especially as it is likely to cause less offence.

Or maybe we want to wind up Argentina.
