Why is he being prosecuted when terrorists guilty of mass murder are walking the streets. Appeasing the republicans who are guilty of 1000s of deaths is so so wrong.

If you support this in ANY way then please feel free to unfollow me IMMEDIATELY. This is NOT what Great Britain is about. You are embarrassing our country and those of us who ACTUALLY served. We know what a real fight is and know true honour and courage. This is nothing but pure and utter ignorance and the lowest standard of respect. And the worst bit? Ur using OUR name in vain to try and excuse it all! U have let this country down, even more than any government or Anti War March today.

In light of recent events, Falkland Islanders remind the world that self-determination is a right enshrined in article one, paragraph two of the Charter of the United Nations. #BritishByChoice #SelfDetermination #Falklands @FalklandsGov | @GHFalklands youtube.com/watch?v=u3I7A1dr…

After 40 years I am going to speak to the Argentine commando that captured me. He is on the extreme left and I am on the extreme right. Amazing. @40Falklands #falklandswar

Could this be my medal that was looted by Argentine Forces in the Falklands after I was captured 40 years ago. 3 medals have turned up in an Argentine museum. Awaiting news.

Time has passed since I posted this tweet. After 40 years it wasn't going to be quick. However I am soon going to have a video call with one of the Argentines who took me captive. Wait out @40Falklands #falklandswar
