Chagos Islands

[Doctor Gollum]

I think you're right Donny's going to stamp his foot soon👍

Is that before or after he's bought and repaired Gaza?

Well, if he buys it as derelict land at a fair price, even Bob the Builder would be able to turn a profit on that project.

Advanced case of 'man boobs'?

They're a bit like the rest of my body, muscular and strong. Unfortunately you can't see that because the covering is a little bit loose.

Yes I know what you mean  like having a massive pair of overalls on.

The handover of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius slowly grinds on, although there was a small victory in the House of Lords yesterday when it looked like a Conservative amendment to the bill requiring the government to consult the Chagossians looked likely to pass, so Labour withdrew the bill before the vote. 

Meanwhile Mauritius has been busy doing deals with it's friends China and India, and it looks like India will lease one of the islands for a radar station and China wants to lease another. You can see what China has done to little specks of rock in the South China Sea, and believe that they will quickly build a military base there.   

Excellent speech yesterday in the Lords by Lord Daniel Hannan.

I watched this.

The Chagos surrender was nothing more than an expensive exercise in national self harm. We didn't need to go this route but so many of the 'powers that be' can't stop clutching their pearls in a guilty manner every time a piece of land is linked to the days of empire.

Hats off to the Chinese. They don't actually need to ever fight a war to achieve world domination.

Hats off to the Chinese. They don't actually need to ever fight a war to achieve world domination.

And we've bankrolled all of it with all the cheap shite we keep buying 

[Varche]

Very true. They are playing a very long game.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

As a boy any old bit of tat would have 'made in Hong Kong' stamped on it.

Today, any old tat has 'made in China' stamped on it.

The same but different, sort of.

[Sir Tigger KC]

Very true. They are playing a very long game.

My knowledge of the scriptures is pretty sketchy, but I think I'm right that there's something in the Bible about the 'yellow race' ruling the world?        

[Sir Tigger KC]

Apparently Trumpy is exploring the idea of purchasing the Chagos Islands from Mauritius, after Starmer and Lammy meekly surrender them and the Union Flag is pulled down. 

What a humiliation that would be!     Although I suppose it would save the reported £9 billion of taxpayers cash that those idiots have agreed to pay to rent the base. On the other hand Trump will surely charge us, if we want to keep a military presence there? 

Farcical! 

Well, well well.

We are sleepwalking into disaster.
