The UK have claimed a vast track of the south Atlantic seabed rich in oil and minerals in defiance of Argentinian opposition. The claim comes after the Argentinian government have been trying to extend their control of the seabed around the Falkland Islands. Could this dredge up some not so old issues.-

From the map there still seems to be a bit left to grab, so perhaps Scotland could get a claim in?
All ridiculous really. Time we started looking at the World as a world resource rather than having these conflicts over exploitation. Time we all realised "there is no Planet B!"
