Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, is dining with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago to discuss the Chagos Islands deal, which Trump opposes because the UK will not permit its airbases to be used for a pre-emptive U.S. strike on Iran. Trump has criticized Prime Minister Keir Starmer's agreement to hand sovereignty of the islands to Mauritius while retaining British and American use of the Diego Garcia airbase.
