Defence MPs to visit Falklands
In a move that could anger Buenos Aires further, members of the Defence Select Committee said they would be visiting the islands next month.
They want to inspect Britain’s military force there, which has recently been joined by the Duke of Cambridge on a six-week tour as a search and rescue pilot. The visit comes before the 30th anniversary of the conflict over the Falklands.
