Arent the Falklands largely populated b people of British descent? Also I just skimmed the wiki article and while Argentina did attempt to settle the islands in the early 1800s, that was over 200 years ago and the island has been held decently well by the British since.

Plus I doubt the Falklanders want to be part of the shitshow that is Argentina, the UK may be a mess but they usually let their random islands do their own thing.
