The Chagos Archipelago…….

[bolo 2]

………should be given back to it’s people now!!
From wiki:
The Chagos was home to the Chagossians, a Bourbonnais Creole-speaking people, until the United Kingdom evicted them between 1967 and 1973 to allow the United States to build a military base on Diego Garcia. Since 1971, only the atoll of Diego Garcia is inhabited, and only by military and civilian contracted personnel. Since being expelled, Chagossians, like all others not permitted by the UK or US governments, have been prevented from entering the islands.

Isn't there the small matter of the purchase fee? In 1965, Britain bought the Chagos islands for £3m. I make that around £1/2Bn in todays money.

Chagos belongs to Mauritius according to the UN.
The UK has lost every argument and hasn't a leg to stand on.

Something went wrong!

Do you know much about Neanderthals?

Probably not as much as you know about Homo Erectus.

Give England back to the Celts,

I believe the majority of the population of England and the rest of the British Isles are pre Celtic.
