Will be interesting to see how many Chagos Islanders return to their homeland and how they will manage without fresh water. Not sure many will leave the Seychelles or Surrey to return.

My bet is fewer than 50 and they won’t stay more than a year and then blame Britain and request compensation.

This agreement of 99 years its a blackmail.. under a force position of the uk..“take it or we dont leave” (evil)

pop..you get it, we have given the problem to Mauritius, the Chagos islanders never wanted to return and Mauritius only wanted revenue from the US for the base. Britain never had a use for the islands as there was no population.

Maybe now it will get into your thick skull.

Britain gave up its Empire voluntarily 60-70 years ago, if we wanted land we had more than any country ever, we did not and do not.

We wanted Diego Garcia to protect the base, and we look after the Falklands to protect the people from idiotic Peronists like you.

Argentina is the colonialist, genocidal massacre through Patagonia and still wants more land .

At least your current President isnt as stupid or ridiculous as the last few.
