It seems that Britain is to give up territory in Mauritius. The Chagos Islands will soon no longer be British - but then again, I’d never heard of them. Who cares?
Exactly why does the UK waste billions a year on all its overseas territories? And why, for so many other territories, does it allow criminal money laundering and tax evasion?

I must admit I have never understood why Britain clings to such places either. I wonder how much the Falklands or Tristan da Cunha (remember them?) costs for example?

Ive not heard of them either - but as to who cares - probably the people who live there.
If they want to be independent or part of Mauritus then so it should be.
