Save the Chagos Islanders from a second exile
Enforce Crawley MP Henry Smith's bill to allow anyone of Chagossian descent to acquire British overseas territories citizenship.
Why is this important?
These people have been taken away from their home by the British government, home that has been handed to the U.S. military.
As well as a forced exile they now have to pay for their right to remain in the country and pay high immigration fees and/or pay for a visa for their relatives to come over, we want to hold the British Government accountable to its past actions, make these people you forced out of their home British citizens for free, as a compensation for the pain and suffering you caused them.
