WATCH: Starmer Misleads House by Claiming China Is Against Chagos Surrender

Starmer was repeatedly needled by a punchy Badenoch at PMQs over the Chagos Surrender and its £30.3 billion price tag. He repeated the line that the base on Diego Garcia was “at risk” due to court cases that do not exist and said an untruth about the deal’s supporters:

“We have secured the long term basis for the base, that has been welcomed by the US, NATO, Australia, New Zealand, India – they are our allies.
