Conservative — Isle of Wight East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 1 April 2025

Debate

UK-Mauritius Treaty: Chagos Islands

Contribution

Oh dear, Madam Deputy Speaker, that is not the answer to the question that I asked. Perhaps the Minister has brought the wrong file with him. My question was very simple and it is one to which the British people deserve an answer. The Government are planning to give away sovereign British territory along with billions of pounds to Mauritius. The money was not referred to in the spring statement or in the Budget. Where is it coming from?
