CHAGOS SURRENDER UPDATE The House of Lords has condemned the Treaty in the strongest possible language. The government can still push ahead, but it has been asked to think again. There will now be ping-pong over the amendments that Starmer regards as incompatible with what he has signed. Once again, the lack of enthusiasm from the Labour benches is striking. One distinguished Labour peer, with a background in defence, defied his whip to vote with us. Keir Starmer, Richard Hermer and the Doughty Street/Matrix Chambers clique can still push ahead, but it is clear that they have no support and no arguments. Now is a good moment to lobby your MP in advance of the ping-pong.

Few outside Pakistan are aware of the atrocities being committed there. Soldiers are firing live rounds at peaceful protesters. Dozens, maybe hundreds, have been killed. Friends of Pakistan, and friends of democracy, cannot let this go on. #FreeImranKhan #IslamabadMassacre 🇬🇧🇵🇰

To grasp the utter poverty of Labour’s position on Chagos, listen to Yvette Cooper here. She can’t defend the surrender. She doesn’t even try. Instead, she falls back on childish insults, ludicrously suggesting that Andrew Rosindell MP 🇬🇧🏴, of all people, is somehow unpatriotic.

A lot of what Adam Smith wrote is counterintuitive. It is utterly convincing when you think about it. But few of us bother to think about it. We prefer to reason backwards from our gut instincts. Hence we keep making the same mistakes. Full speech here.
