Left - and Mauritians - acknowledge that the military base is still there so this is mostly a formality and that Keith is a willing Imperialist stooge

Right thinks the government are Maoist Third Worldists who sold out the 'Empire'

Everyone is unsatisfied

Yep, another Starmer classic!

The military base stays, so the people can’t return. It’s basically just a formal name change.

Looks like the commies of Mauritius finally published a statement about this situation

https://www.lalitmauritius.org/en/newsarticle/3472/fatal-flaws-in-uk-mauritius-joint-statement-on-planned-treaty-on-chagos/

"[...] [T]he Treaty must be opposed. LALIT now puts the following issue on the agenda for the general elections: Full sovereignty to be exercised democratically over Chagos, and a date for base closure and clean-up! No to militarism! No to prolonged occupation or colonization! [...]"

Yeah it’s practically useless what happened, since the status quo isn’t going to change. Chagossians wont be returned to their home and the Imperialist still have a military base to disrupt and destroy global trade routes against china.

This was the most that was possible when using liberal global systems. Because the americans would never let it happen.

Fuck the UK 🤮 hope it doesn't last for 99 years or even a fraction of that...

Had felt some slight happiness for the Chagossians, entering the thread until I saw the details... fucking Brits

The genocidal maniacs are finally leaving the Chagos islands, allowing the people to return and some kind of healing to begin?

It’ll only be for 6 months however (starting March 21, 2025) and is only due to the Antarctic polar night. Still very cool though, the old world is dying
