To who, the French?! They’re the only ones who settled there before the British (beating them by a whopping 1 year), and they left again two years after they showed up. (And I say “settled there,” by the way, because if we went by who discovered it then the only people the British could return it to would be themselves.)
I mean the UK won’t return Gilbraltar to Spain who were in the EU with them they won’t obviously return the falklands.
“Return the Falklands”
… do you know the history of the Falklands? At all?
I’d like to see the UK also defending the “vote of the people” if Ireland voted to leave the UK
Ireland literally did, almost a hundred years ago. North Ireland voted to stay. There was a legally binding Scottish referendum on independence a few years back that the UK pledged to abide by. Are you shitting me?

They claim ownership via Spain’s ownership, when Argentina won their independence from Spain.

You talk like it’s a done deal and recent talks about a referendum to revisit never existed.
I… what?
No, I talk about it like it was literally a “vote of the people” which the UK pledged to abide by, which is what is being discussed.
He literally did not do that
Scotland had a vote, a legitimate one. Ireland, as in the Republic, isn’t part of the UK.
How can the Falklands be returned? Stop talking about this as if you know anything.
They literally did. Ireland became its own country 100 years ago. NI wanted to stay with the UK
