Even citizenship and migration to Britain left most Chagossians impoverished

Evidence

Numbering more than five thousand today, most Chagossians remain impoverished. They are still struggling to win proper compensation and the right of return. In 2002 they secured the right to full UK citizenship, and since that time well over one thousand Chagossians have moved to Britain in search of better lives. Even the ones who have found housing and employment there, though, are often stuck working long hours in low-wage service sector jobs. — David Vine, Base Nation_ How U.S. Military Bases…, 220
