Chagos Deal Row: Starmer vs Trump, Akua's Alarm
Akua calls the Chagos deal stupid and predicts Starmer's MPs might ditch him amid a Trump‑row.
On 24 Jan 2026 GB News published an opinion piece by presenter Nana Akua attacking the Chagos deal. Akua says the agreement is “so stupid” and predicts that Sir Keir Starmer’s MPs are lining up to ditch him amid a clash with former U.S. President Donald Trump over the treaty. The article frames the row as a potential political upheaval for the Labour Party, noting that Starmer’s stance on the Chagos islands—a U.S.-administered overseas territory in the Indian Ocean—has drawn intense scrutiny. Akua calls the deal a blunder, warning that Labour’s leadership could erode if MPs follow Starmer’s example. The piece highlights the interplay between UK foreign policy, political loyalty, and media commentary.
