Terrritorial Markings

In some environmentalist cause or other, a total ban on fishing around the Chagos Islands is now on the brink of being imposed, effectively preventing for ever the return of those Islands' exiled and dispossessed British people to that occupied British territory, since they would then have no way of making a living there.

    David - you are right that a no-take fishing ban in Chagos would be disastrous for the Chagossians and their campaign to have their right to return restored.

    Have you responded to the FCO's consultation on this issue? If not, I strongly urge you to do so - either by visiting the FCO website or by finding the details on the UK Chagos Support Association blog.
