Closed Justice For The Chagossians Now

Closed on

We the undersigned call upon the British Government to work with the US Government to allow the banished Chagossian people to return home immediately. Several articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights are violated every day. The indigenous Chagossian people have suffered for over 45 years. They must be allowed to return to their homeland, the Chagos Islands, without further delay.
