Argentina's economy boosted

Argentina's president Kristina Kirchner today proudly announced a new banknote featuring the Falkland Islands as a main image. Apart from the obvious typo on the name, the unfortunate serial number (140682), Argentina's financial outlook has been raised from hopeless to basket case. 

The new fifty pesos note is currently valued at £3.70  £3.15  £2.68   £2.20

In other news, sales of wheelbarrows in Argentina have tripled in as many weeks.
