I wonder: Do the inhabitants of Falkland really want to be under british rule, or did they simply consider this the lesser of the two evils they were offered to choose between in some poll?

I mean, that the vast majority would choose british over argentinian rule seems obvious to me - the devil you know is better than the devil you don't. But if they had the choice, wouldn't they rather be independant?
