Daniel Hannan(@DanielJHannan):This is the most significant test for our new PM, his Falklands moment. Mauritius has made a hostile claim on our territory. Does he resettle the Chagos Islands with their original inhabitants and hold what we have? Or does he carry on with the disastrous Starmer approach?
