The sovereignty of the Falkland Islands’ could also be put at risk if Britain votes to leave the EU, William Hague has warned.

Lord Hague, the Former foreign secretary, also warned that Gibraltar would be left in a very difficult position and that Britain's overseas territories were united in fearing “seriously adverse consequences” of a Brexit.

Members of the Falklands’ administration have already predicted “catastrophic consequences” if Britain leaves the EU, because the great majority of Falkland exports go to the European single market.

1. Guess that was one more

expert to be ignored. WTF were the numpties who voted "leave" thinking?

3. They may have been thinking of other closer realities. Falklands as part of the Eurozone

isn't blatantly obvious as the islands and it's population of ~3000 are situated far south in the southern hemisphere.

2. Yup.

This hasn't gained any traction amid all the noise in the aftermath of the vote yet, but it's another unintended consequence.
