Falklands - Is this a story?

The Latin American trading nations, that form part of Mercosur have backed a ban, proposed by Argentina.  This refuses entry to Mercosur ports for ships carrying the Falkland Islands flag.

Big story?

How many merchant ships do you think actually carry this flag?  Answers on a (small) postage stamp to:
Mercosur HQ
Attn. Someone who gives a damn
Anywhere Street,
Buenos Aires
Argentina


Should the UK retaliate?  Will they be joined by their 'partners' in the EU?  Is Uruguay's inclusion a reaction to the suspension of Liverpool's Suarez?

Watch this space.

Or don't.
