What a day! The Sea Harrier and Lynx intended for display at the #LookoutGalleryAndExhibitionHall have arrived in the Islands… just in time for Liberation Day tomorrow, 14th June.
As always, we are thinking of our veterans, their families, and those who never returned home.
10 January is a very special day in #Falklands where we celebrate Margaret Thatcher Day. On this day in 1983 Thatcher received the honorary freedom of the #Falklands
The Falkland Islands are British. That is non-negotiable and undeniable 🇬🇧🇫🇰
99.8% of islanders voted to remain British and we will always defend their right to self-determination and the UK’s sovereignty with @HMS_Forth now back to protect the islands.

A remarkable contribution from the people of the Falklands to #BattleofBritain 808 Spitfires served at various points during the battle. 326 were lost, 76 ‘struck off charge’ (missing, taken out of service too damaged or for spares/scrap) and 589 were damaged but repairable.
Happy #Falklands Day! In 1592 Captain John Davis made the first recorded sighting of #Falklands on his ship the Desire. We are a growing, diverse and resilient community that has prospered over time thanks to the generations of people who have made these islands their home.
Wishing all a very Happy #FalklandsDay as we celebrate the first recorded sighting of our islands back in 1592! 🇫🇰
Below @FalklandsRepUK and @figodeprep talk about the history of the Day, its ongoing importance and what it means for the modern Falkland Islands. 👇
