David Cameron called on Argentina to respect the wishes of Falkland islanders to remain British. The Prime Minister said the 99.8% vote in favour of remaining a British Overseas Territory in a referendum held on the islands over the past two days was the "clearest possible result there could be". He said Britain would always be there to defend the islands. Speaking at 10 Downing Street just hours after the result of the referendum was announced, Mr Cameron said it sent a clear message to Argentina. A total of 1,517 valid votes were cast in the south Atlantic archipelago, a turnout of 92% of the islanders eligible to vote.
