Keir Starmer's government agreed in principle to a 700-page Gibraltar pact last year to ease post-Brexit borders, but opponents like Priti Patel call it a cover-up lacking firm sovereignty guarantees and allowing Spanish checks at key sites. They compare it to the 2025 Chagos deal, where sovereignty transferred to Mauritius while leasing back the US-UK Diego Garcia base for 99 years—now criticized by President Trump as a mistake vital for potential Iran strikes. The Foreign Office promises parliamentary scrutiny, while Gibraltar's Chief Minister supports it for economic benefits, highlighting tensions between decolonization and strategic security.
