Former Nato Commander blasts ‘ludicrous’ move by Labour over Chagos deal

A former Nato Commander has branded Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s proposed Chagos Islands deal with Mauritius a “ludicrous surrender” amid growing controversy over reports the agreement could cost British taxpayers £18billion.

Rear Admiral Chris Parry told GB News the plan represents a “betrayal of our interests” in the strategically vital Indian Ocean territory.
