IIRC the catch is that Rockall has in law a territorial sea of its own
but it is too isolated from the next bit of sovereign territory to act

Yes. If the UK were to declare itself an archipelagic state, it could draw
its baseline round the outside of all its various islands, including
islands such as Rockall - it doesn't matter that it's uninhabited
(Jamaica's done this).


Jamaica's claiming Rockall?? :-)




Roll on the Rockall Reggae festival. ;-)
