    Chagos Islanders Vow to Fight UK Government Deal After Court Ruling

    Chagos Islands: Campaigners Vow to Fight On After Court Ruling A protest took place outside the High Court in London on May 22nd, 2025, following a ruling that allows the British government to proceed with a deal to transfer the Chagos Islands to Mauritius. The demonstration saw Chagossian campaigners expressing their deep disappointment and unwavering commitment to continue their fight for their rights. "This is a very sad day," stated Bertice Pomp, a Chagossian campaigner. "But we take courage from the people who support us. We will not give up our rights to Mauritius; we are British citizens, and our rights must be respected." Misley Mandarin, another campaigner, echoed Pomp's sentiments, stating, "No retreat, no surrender. We've been fighting for more than 50 years, and we are ready to fight until the end." The campaigners' determination highlights the ongoing struggle for self-determination and recognition of their rights. The protest underscores the complex political issues surrounding the Chagos Islands and the determination of the Chagossian people to secure their future. Their continued fight serves as a powerful symbol of resilience and their commitment to justice.
