Yet again, coercion, force and violence have settled the matter once and for all. We won the war in '82 to determine who should own the islands. The islanders had no say in the matter but were certainly over joyed that our side was victorious, if never in football.
If we had lost, presumably we would have relocated the islanders to the UK. No problem. So why did nearly one thousand people have to die to underscore the principle that you don't ever takeover/attack another country - like Chagos Islands, S Africa or Palestine/Israel or Afghanistan or Iraq or Venezuela or Iran?
Anyway, all that matters is that what we want goes in this world. We want, we have. Everything, but its not greed, mind you. Now, multiple rail modes are called, officially by the DfT - Mixed Use Railways.
