Chagos Islanders leave London's Houses of Parliament on October 22, 2008. The British government on Wednesday won its appeal to Britain's highest court over previous rulings that allowed displaced Indian Ocean islanders to return home. The three-to-two majority decision by the House of Lords overturns rulings that said the use of the royal prerogative -- the legislative method used to block the return of the Chagos islanders -- was unlawful. It means that a bar on the islanders returning home has been upheld. AFP PHOTO/Shaun Curry (Photo by SHAUN CURRY / AFP)
