The Sun has a very politically loaded take as it claims Labour has weakened the UK (despite the first steps being taken by the former Conservative government) by giving away the islands:

WHAT a day of ignominy for the new ­Government — not just giving away strategically vital British territory but handing taxpayers an endless bill for the privilege.

Labour has taken mere weeks to capitulate entirely, despite Mauritius’s historic claim having no validity — it never owned the islands — nor being legally binding.

The Chagos debacle weakens us militarily while, incredibly, forcing us to pay unknown sums to Mauritius every year.
