Rishi Sunak rejects call for Britain to apologise for slavery and pay reparations by LeahMahon_
PRIME MINISTER Rishi Sunak has rejected a call for the government to formally apologise for Britain’s role in slavery.
The MP for Streatham was reflecting on the life of former Tottenham MP Bernie Grant – who was also the founder of the Africa Reparations Movement – when she put the questions to the PM. Ms Ribeiro-Addy said: “Since then, Prime Ministers and Heads of State have only ever expressed sorrow and deep regret.“So I want to ask the Prime Minister today, if he will do what Bernie Grant asked for all those years ago, what I have asked, what countless others have asked since, and offer a full and meaningful apology for our country’s role in slavery and colonialism and commit to reparatory justice.
