THE diplomatic stand-off ahead of the 30th anniversary of the Falklands War intensified yesterday when David Cameron accused Argentina of "colonialism" over the islands.
The Prime Minister made his comments to MPs just 24 hours after the first ever National Security Council (NSC) on the Falklands, held to review the UK Government's defence strategy.
A No 10 spokeswoman said the NSC, which is chaired by Mr Cameron and attended by military chiefs, agreed Britain had the "right strategy in place to respond quickly and flexibly to any developments during the year".
