British Caribbean

That is the name of Lord Ashcroft's bank on the Turks and Caicos Islands.

In return for the stamping out of all provision for the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories to function as tax havens, students from those Dependencies and Territories should be recognised as home students.

There is also the wider need for a political force which demands advocates on behalf of the people of those Dependencies and Territories, especially in demanding the building of the airport on Saint Helena, justice for Ascension Island and for the Chagos Islands, and no compromise whatever, whether on the sovereignty of Gibraltar, or on either the sovereignty or the oil revenue of the Falkland Islands.

Oh, and the return of the scandalously discontinued BBC English for the Caribbean Service.
