The United States has threatened to oppose Britain’s sovereignty over the Falkland Islands if Andy Burnham does not increase defence spending, The Telegraph can reveal.
The proposal is among measures being drawn up by senior defence officials at the Pentagon as an incentive to hit Nato’s 5 per cent spending pledge.
A senior US official told The Telegraph that Britain was likely to receive “special attention” in Washington’s review of its allies’ commitment to Nato, which will examine whether member nations have credible paths toward the target.

So it reflects America pretty well then
With what? Buzz the islands with some over-tired and exausted soldiers without any weapons because your dumb pedo ass wasted them trying to impress the Iranians?
If they bring that Aircraft Carrier from the Middle East over to the Falklands I’m pretty sure all the sailors will jump overboard and swim to the islands to claim asylum.
The Falkland Islands, population about 3000 or so, would suddenly find itself one of the few territories in the world capable of deploying an aircraft carrier.

For fuck’s sake! The previous 2% was already FAR too much to waste on enriching the world military industrial complex and now they want to increase it by 150%?! 🤦🏻
Don’s buddies want payback for the money they invested in him.
What a loser
I guarantee that’s a Playskool phone in the thumbnail, just painted black to trick Trump into thinking he’s a big boy
"The cow called me last night. Big cow, strong cow, beautiful cow. It was crying on the phone, begging, pleading with me. ‘Mr President,’ it said, because it respects me just like everyone else, except for the phony dumocrats and the Spanish. ‘Please Mr President, the cow goes moo!’
"I said, ‘I don’t understand what you mean, Mr Cow.’ The cow goes moo? Why is he talking in third person? That’s my thing, you know? What’s he talking about?
"And you know what it said back to me? It said ‘the cow goes moo for you, Mr President, because you’re so strong and handsome and successful. And you have such big manly hooves and such a smooth neck that doesn’t look like a vagayna at all!’
“I said ‘thank you Mr Cow. When my beautiful bunker ballroom opens up you should come over and chew on some cud.’ But then I had to hang up because Natalie came in with my Baby Mum-Mum biscuits and my sippy cup of warm milk.”
Way too coherent
I can’t understand how people can listen to him going on about how there’s a B in dumb and take him seriously at all.
A new Falklands conflict was not something I was expecting in 2026.
It would be over before it began. Falklands are more heavily defended now and Argentina still has the same “capability” as it did the first time round.
GO GET NORIEGA WHILE YOU’RE AT IT.
