Hilarious confected outrage from these PA protesters that they might be made to cough up for the damage they caused. I hope more companies will do the same.

If this is true then it’s fatal for Starmer’s treaty. It contains a crazy clause saying that Mauritius must be informed ‘expeditiously’ if base is used for an attack.

Donald Trump is refusing to back Sir Keir Starmer’s Chagos deal again unless the Prime Minister allows the US to use the islands to strike Iran.
The US president is understood to have asked to use Diego Garcia as part of contingency planning for potential bombing raids.
However, Downing Street is concerned that supporting any such strikes by Mr Trumpwould breach international law.
US officials have also demanded confirmation in writing that America will not be required to tell Mauritius about attacks launched from the base after the sovereignty of the islands is transferred.
Ministers are now concerned that it will not be possible to resolve the situation before the end of a 10-week deadline to return the Chagos bill – legislation that underpins the deal – to Parliament for the approval of MPs.
