International UK Government to open talks with Caribbean officials demanding $4.8 trillion in 'slavery reparations'

[Croo67]

The UK Government is to begin talks with Caribbean officials in April on demands to pay £3.9 trillion ($4.8 trillion) in slavery reparations.

David Lammy, Britain's Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, will lead a team of UK officials meeting with members of Reparations Commission of the Caribbean Community (Caricom), a political grouping of 15 states.

Lammy has been a long-time campaigner for Britain reparations - previously stating there needs to be a 'reckoning' with Britain's colonial past.

The meeting is a first of its kind, with previous leaders of the UK Government rebuffing 'successive attempts' by the group for dialogue on reparations.

No. Talk to the Moors

 

[Kassitus]

Britain should demand reparations from them for all the resources they invested in ending a pan-human practice that had existed since the stone age lol

 

[Possum Jenkins]

Lol @ paying more than your annual GDP.

Definitely a good attention grabber, though.

 

[Luthien]

Hey! Thanks for ending cannibalism!
You are very welcome

I'm starting to suspect that they are mad about having their cannibal ways taken from them.

Classic virtue signaling approach by the white left...set up a task force, agree to talks, table a discussion session...but there's zero chance they are actually pay it out.

It's times like this I wish I worked in a government role that could emphatically say no and laugh at anyone who brought it up

The talks are not being led by a white man and he has repeatedly stated in the past that he believes Britain should pay it.

I agree with your stance, though.

I think the UK should be awarded 4.8 trillion dollars for bringing them modern civilization.

They don't usually appoint a white to lead the talks; they give that role to some kind of minority.

Trump buys UK?

 

[Flower2dPeople]

If they received their 4.8 trillion, will they...

 

[jimjamjammer]

The UK is hell bent on destroying themselves.

 

[squeezewax]

Maybe countries such as Britain, The Netherlands, Iceland, should demand slavery reparations from countries such as Morocco, for all the people they abducted and enslaved?

 

[White Whale]

It seems like the Caribbean an officials see how pathetic Britain politicians and using them to make huge profits.

 

[humperdoo]

Will India also demand for this reparation because they too are among of those they colonized or its just US demanding UK government to do all these payments to be given to Carribean?

Looks like they really are trying to get the attention of the people away from China while people from Caribbean are already liking Chinese.

 

[Croo67]

Here’s the UK’s Secretary for Foreign Affairs - who is leading the talks on behalf of Britain - demanding reparations.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

If we pay out money to everyone we've subjugated over the years we'll be paying out quite a lot.

Maybe we can claim it back from the Italians though.

 

[BigDeadFreak]

Simple, we give you reparations and you give us back computers, telephones, steam engines, factories, a functioning sewage system, antibiotics, antiseptic surgery and all the other modern wonders that we invented and let you use for free.

 

[A Very Serious Cat]

Do they get any thanks for the fighting they did to end slavery? Of course not

 

[pugilistico]

I think Italy should pay reparations to the rest of Europe for enslaving the Gauls. Mongolia should pay reparations for what Genghis Kahn did. Egypt should pay reparations to Israel since Jews built the pyramids lol.
