Keir Starmer is so weak that he is handing over £35 billion of taxpayers’ cash and a British Overseas Territory, the Chagos Islands, to the government of Mauritius. This is disgraceful. Labour’s Chagos surrender deal will leave Britain weaker, compromise our national security, and hand over British sovereign territory and our money to an ally of China. This must be scrapped. The Conservative Party has fought against this Bill, and we will campaign to kill the Bill.

Today in the Assembly, I spoke on the disgraceful treatment of the Chagos Islands & Chagossian people. In summary-a sell off to Mauritius. I also paid tribute to the heroic efforts of Friends of the British Overseas Territories to raise the profile of the issue in the UK. Scrap the deal. Arlene Foster DBE PC #ProudofNI.

The Conservatives have exposed the true cost of Keir Starmer’s reckless Chagos Surrender, a staggering £35 billion. Conservatives have fought for the rights of the Chagossian people and for Britain’s sovereignty. Labour wants to hand over British territory to an ally of China, putting our security at risk, and force hardworking British taxpayers to foot the bill. Keir Starmer’s Labour Party is making Britain poorer, weaker, and more divided. The Conservatives want to kill this shameful Chagos Surrender Bill.

The surrender of the Chagos Islands is an act of national self harm. That money should be spent strengthening the UK Armed Forces to protect the United Kingdom against hostile threats, not paying to give away sovereign territory.

The British decision to transfer sovereignty of the strategic Chagos islands is a giveaway to Beijing. This is strategic folly on an epic scale.

Today was supposed to be the Chagos Surrender Bill going through the House of Lords. Instead, Labour suffered a humiliating defeat, by the Conservatives in the Lords and forced to withdraw their bill. The Labour Party have rushed this Chagos surrender bill to appease their left wing lawyers, whilst overlooking the US-UK 1966 treaty, stating the British Indian Ocean Territory shall remain under the United Kingdom sovereignty. The Conservatives will continue to fight to completely kill this shameful bill.
