Vigilate?

No, you cannot imagine Gibraltar or the Falkland Islands being treated so badly if they suffered a natural disaster such as has afflicted, and is afflicting, the British Overseas Territories in the Caribbean.

And no, you cannot imagine Gibraltar or the Falkland Islands being subjected to the level of British Government incompetence that has now led to an existential crisis on St Helena, which has a larger population that the Falklands, and which is far nearer to the United Kingdom.

But then, you cannot imagine that the Gibraltarians or the Falkland Islanders could ever be treated in the manner of the Chagossians, whose case and cause are routinely screamed down by those who are noisiest in support of Gibraltar and the Falkland Islands.

So, what is it that the Gibraltarians and the Falkland Islanders have in common, but which the people of the Caribbean, St Helena and the Chagos Islands do not share?
