The Chagos Islands

 My lack of knowledge in Geography

There is no point in NATO
I must admit, with all the fuss over the Chagos Islands, I had no idea where they were, until a few minutes ago; I suspect I am the same as the majority of the people in the UK.
They are a small collection of islands in the Indian Ocean, on the way between East Africa, and Australia. I don't support many Labour Party policies, in this case I am with them.
The British Empire had the rule of the islands for decades, I am sure the islanders would be happier being run by Mozambique, than a government thousands of miles away, that forgot them. Like NATO, the base has little value to the UK.
