Except in this case there was nobody living on the island, so the “natives” are all of European descent and overwhelmingly (like 90+%) want to stay part of the UK.
1,513 voted yes to stay part of the UK overseas territories. 3 people voted no.
Even those no voters were not saying yes to Argentinian rule.

The islands were totally abandoned and relinquished when the British arrived.
The settlers complained of the conditions they were living in and asserted that Vernet had misled them. Duncan offered passage to the mainland and most settlers chose to leave
