We must be clear. This survey is insecure, unverifiable, exclusionary, misleading, incomplete, hurried and now reportedly subject to foreign interference. It cannot be taken as a legitimate or accurate reflection of Chagossian opinion. It cannot guide policy, it cannot guide legislation, and it certainly cannot be used to claim that the Chagossian people support a treaty that many do not. If Britain truly wishes to honour its responsibilities, it must create a new process that is codesigned with the Chagossians, secure, linguistically accessible, transparent, verifiable and grounded in the dignity of the people whose lives it affects.
