Simon RickettsBought #TheLastColony by #PhilippeSands this lunchtime, couldn’t stop reading it & book now completed. Appalling and flagrant breaches of #InternationalLaw, ongoing, by successive UK Governments in displacing the previous residents of the #Chagos Islands and refusing to accept the International Court of Justice’s advisory opinion & #UN General Assembly resolutions. #books
Gemma Abbott#TheLastColony by #PhilippeSands is extraordinary. And I find myself wondering (once a legal campaigner, always a legal campaigner) what the plan is to force the next Govt to stop ignoring the rights of the Changossians - it will surely be much harder for Starmer et al to continue to ignore UN rulings to return #TheChagosIslands as May & her successors have done?
