Keir caught in 'weak negotiating position' over Chagos Islands deal

SIR Keir Starmer and David Lammy have put themselves in a "very weak" negotiating position over their controversial Chagos Islands deal, a senior Tory has warned.

James Cleverly said he would never accept the agreement when he was Foreign Secretary because it has crossed a "red line".

The UK plans to cede sovereignty of the British Indian Ocean Territory to Mauritius under Sir Keir's surrender. It also entails leasing back the strategically important Diego Garcia base used by the US for 99 years at a reported annual cost of around £90million.
