Politics latest: Former PM changes mind over assisted dying - as ex-MI6 boss warns against Chagos Islands deal

//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. -mi6-boss-warns-against-chagos-islands-deal.html

Published in Politics and Government on Wednesday, November 27th 2024 at 16:40 GMT by Brian Stokes
^{🞛 This publication is a summary or evaluation of another publication 🞛 This publication contains editorial commentary or bias from the source}

David Cameron comes out in favour of the assisted dying bill. Meanwhile, the government's deal to hand over the Chagos Islands to Mauritius has come under fire from a former chief of MI6, who tells Sky News it's a "bad agreement".

The article from Sky News discusses several key political developments in the UK. Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown has shifted his stance on assisted dying, now supporting a change in the law to allow terminally ill patients to end their lives with medical assistance, influenced by personal experiences and public opinion. Meanwhile, Sir Richard Dearlove, a former head of MI6, has cautioned against a potential deal with Mauritius over the Chagos Islands, warning that it could lead to a Chinese military presence in the Indian Ocean, which would be detrimental to UK and US strategic interests. Additionally, the article touches on the ongoing debate over the UK's relationship with the European Court of Human Rights, with some Conservative MPs pushing for the UK to potentially leave the court to facilitate the Rwanda deportation plan. Lastly, there are mentions of internal Conservative Party dynamics, including discussions on leadership and policy direction, reflecting the broader political landscape in the UK.
