Falkland Islanders on referendum

The people of the Falkland Islands are preparing to vote in a referendum on whether they want the islands in the south Atlantic to remain a British overseas territory.

Some 1,672 people will be able to vote on Sunday and Monday, with the results expected on Monday night.

The idea behind the referendum is to send a clear message to Argentina and the rest of the world about the wishes of the islanders, and their wish for self-determination.

Argentina invaded the Falklands some 30 years ago, and was defeated by a British task force, but has continually brought up its claim to the islands in recent years.
