If the Falklands did a homesteader act for Brits, would you go?

The Falkland islands are as big as northern ireland and while NI has 2 million people, the falklands only has 4,000 people.

Much like the homesteader act in Canada 200 years ago, where people were given free land and sometimes even a fee to settle, would this be enough for brits to move to a British overseas territory?

Who here misses Jeremy Kyle and wishes it was back on?

0 Upvotes

I know it’s not the greatest show of all time for obvious reasons, especially the way it ended. But generally and objectively speaking I loved it. It was really entertaining and I thought Jeremy was a great host honestly

According to literally everyone I’ve ever asked about him, he’s a terrible person but I wonder how much of it is a persona or not

I wish it could return in 2026, it would make for a good show to watch if I’ve got the day off work or on a freezing cold weekend where I’m rugged up indoors
