Cool, I like how everyone in that sub is OK with it except the China hawks who didn’t know the Chagos Islands existed before it came in the news.

I live near Crawley where most of the islanders live.
I do not care who owns the island as long as they have some form of right of return or compensated properly for their loss. The way they have been treated is an absolute stain and absolute shame.

My brother in Christ
The International Court of Justice is literally next door to you in The Hague
If you wanted to resolve the issue peacefully and according to the rule of law you’d have brought the issue before the Court six decades ago

The UK is giving up sovereignty of the islands in response to Mauritius’ extremely questionable territorial claim, and paying them for the privilege of doing so. My brother in Christ what more do you want.

This deal was so stupid.
