Yeah, I don't really know the cultural tenor there, so that's why this is interesting. But I want to push you a little further on these sentiments because I'm interested to know who specifically holds them.
Again, regarding the Falklands Islands, what segment of British society feels a strong attachment to them? Guam is an American imperial territory with Americans living on it, but you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in the states who has much of an opinion on it, assuming most even know it's part of the US. The Falklands are a bit different because you all fought a war over it, but that was awhile ago. So I guess what I'm mostly wondering is whether it's mostly just geezers who care about things like that. Do people under 40 have much attachment? If not, it seems likely that area of the empire will likely be divested in a generation.
Regarding the IRA, how do British politicians deal with condemnation of the IRA and the compromises made in Northern Ireland? It seems uncontroversial to condemn their terrorist past, but you do have people sitting in parliament who likely provided material and other support to them because they were mainstreamed into the political process, much as the Taliban is being mainstreamed in Afghanistan or as many terrorist white segregationists were not only mainstreamed but came to dominate politics in the South after the fall of Reconstruction around the turn of the 20th century. Here in the US, they tiptoed around the segregationists, much as in Afghanistan they're tiptoeing around the Taliban. Is the position toward the IRA still one of universal condemnation or is that mostly a tory position?
Regarding Corbyn's criticism of the EU, I don't know much about it. Was it mostly on sovereign nationalist grounds? Was it about financial policies? Was it regulations?
Any other Brits also feel free to chime in on these questions.
