  1. President Trump has approved a multibillion-pound deal for Britain to transfer sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius.

    No 10 confirmed on Tuesday that there had been no objections from the US and the deal would be agreed shortly.

    “We are now working with the Mauritian government to finalise the deal and sign the treaty,” a No 10 spokesman said. “It’s now between us and the Mauritian government to finalise the deal following the discussions with the US.”

    Trump strongly hinted that he would support Sir Keir Starmer’s agreement to relinquish the strategic archipelago in the Indian Ocean when the prime minister visited the White House in February

  2. Can someone smarter than me tell me if this is good or bad
