Have you heard of the Chagossians?

[Jebus]

This late 20th century atrocity by the U.S. and Britain is a big deal where I live. I highly recommend this 56 minute documentary for those of you who are unfamiliar with the issue.

EquALLity, this is also relevant to the other thread's discussion:

At 42 minutes:

Order in council [...]
It's a royal decree using archiac powers which are known to most of us as still invested in the queen
[...]
The queen rubber stamps what in many cases politicians know they can't get away with democratically

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_in_Council

The powers are rarely used, but the royalty along with the last remnants of its medieval power is still a monstrosity.

Ah yes, I see.

That's a very interesting film. Thanks for sharing Jebus! Glad I know.
