Damn looked into it, and in 2010 they were secretly planning on turning the entire area into a marine reserve to ensure the exiled people’s could never go back.
Yep, the strict marine reserve. But it doesn’t stop the military base from pumping sewage into it, and it doesn’t stop rich people with yachts from going there. Just normal people and Chagos islanders aren’t allowed. Also a difficult thing to note is that this was during a Labour government (which many liberal-minded British people consider a lesser of two evils). The only major politician who intended to do right there was Jeremy Corbyn, but he was slaughtered by the media for being not evil enough.
