Telegraph this evening saying that Burnham will push ahead with the Chagos deal.i know (or read in a newspaper that Jonathan Powell has said he must). Why is this government determined to give away huge amounts of money to get rid of Chagos. To me, one of the main beneficiaries will be China. I muse whilst trying to get to sleep at night how cheaply a politician could be bought. I am not suggesting this has happened (care hs to be taken with the thought police), but I assume Starmer could have been bought for circa £5 million and Burnham less (pure musing not fact). It’s a bit like that Dale Vince. He gave several million to the Labour Party and received contracts worth over £100,000.
