Jeremy Corbyn backs talks on Falklands Islands future

British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn supports dialogue “without pre-conditions” with Argentina over the future of the Falkland Islands, a senior party source has said.

Corbyn sparked controversy in a weekend TV interview by saying he wanted discussions on “some reasonable accommodation” with Argentina.

While saying the islanders should have an “enormous say” in any discussions on their future, he stopped short of saying that they should have a veto over any new arrangements.
