"Thinks" seems to be a rather generous term. If they were that worried about the costs, one would think that they'd have looked at the projections a little more closely.

MM Seafort and Kennedy(s), does you country intend to invade Argentinia?

I'm just spitballing here, but my guess is that if the UK was planning to invade anyone, they'd use the Regular Army, Royal Navy, RAF, and possibly RM Commandos rather than a handful of civilians plucked from an internet Star Trek forum. Like I said, though, that's just a guess.

Well if they do, they haven't let me in on it so far. And since they're usually pretty good about keeping me in the loop on these things, I suspect not...

Don't you usually have the final say-so on such things?
