Description

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Robert Midgley, journalist and spokesperson for the Friends of British Overseas Territories, to expose what could be Keir Starmer’s greatest political scandal yet — the quiet handover of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius.


We unpack how this shocking deal — costing British taxpayers up to £47 billion — effectively gives away sovereign UK territory in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Robert reveals how the Labour government, under pressure from international legal activists like Philippe Sands, has undermined British sovereignty and endangered one of America’s most strategic military bases, Diego Garcia.


From allegations of corruption and hacked negotiations in Mauritius to the Chinese Communist Party’s interest in the region, we examine how Britain’s political and legal elite have allowed foreign powers to dictate national policy under the banner of “decolonisation.”

We also explore the untold story of the Chagossian people — forcibly removed by the British government in the 1960s, yet still overwhelmingly pro-British today, despite decades of betrayal.


All this — the Chagos scandal, the billions in taxpayer money, China’s growing influence, and how Starmer’s Labour is sleepwalking Britain into surrendering its sovereignty.
