Foreign Office ‘to open talks on slavery reparations’
Officials from David Lammy’s department set to meet Caribbean delegation demanding trillions of pounds, sources claim
Given the success they’ve been making over Chagos we’ll be handing over the keys to the Mint soon enough, eh?
Surely the trillions should come to UK from Africa. As compensation for the Africans dumping all those worthless thugs on the gullible British traders.
I’m all for reparations.
We spent an awful lot of time, effort and money on stamping out the slave trade.
Time they paid us back.
That’s what they mean, right?
Trillions of pounds, eh? Where is Britain going to get it from? Rachel’s Black Hole?
A few trillion is chicken-feed compared to what we’re going to have to pay to Singapore and Hong Kong. Our exploitation ruined those once-prosperous towns.
Why would the Foreign Office open talks and meet on this subject. It’s a stupid move. What is the possible upside for the UK’s population? The only thing it achieves is making work for otherwise idle Foreign Office staff, which is a problem better solved with P45’s.
I’d love to know how TTK and his mate are going to split the £18,000,000,000 we will pay for Chagos.
Obviously, our Prime Minister isn’t bent, so he’ll probably just get a new pair of specs, or thinking about his extremely close friendship with Lord A, perhaps a new pair of boxers as well…
As for the reparations I wonder if Dave has still got some relatives in the Windies? If not, I’m sure he’ll find some…

David Lammy. MP for Guyana.
Norman, I bet that’s what the top secret Cabinet meeting was about. Rachel and TTK comparing their black holes to see which is bigger. Given that TTK has kept the most important one of his promises he made before the election and won’t work after 6pm, perhaps his black hole is now even bigger that Rachel’s?
@Grist
Yawning black holes in the context of 2TK and his observance of the COVID rules he was so keen to inflict on everyone else?
That’s what happens when you make a black activist Foreign Secretary.
Rachel and TTK comparing their black holes to see which is bigger.
Misreading “black” my brain nearly shut down in horror.
A quick calculation shows the Carribean owes *US* at least 330 trillion.
Apparently the Foreign Office are now denying this, so expect it go through in the next few months…..
Even some black people have had enough

Can we have this chap for PM, please?
Well someone has to do the heavy grifting and Marie-Antoinette Lammy is their guy!
And we couldn’t afford a heating subsidy even for the worst off pensioners. Remember those days?
Perhaps Lammy, whose Bantu ancestors were said to be the biggest slavers in Africa after the Zulus, should be the first to put his hand in his pocket? Just a thought.
There’s no democratic mandate for reparations, no spare money to do it with and no settled consensus on the morality of it… so why is the FO even considering it?
Answer, as it so often is… corruption
If the money flows like we’re finding out it does in the US, most of that will end up in Labour apparatchiks’ personal wealth.
Just enough of it will flow to the Caribbean delegations’ Swiss bank accounts to shut them up about the grift.
So why not meet and agree to rob the British taxpayers once again?
So, did this ‘Caribbean delegation’ arrive in canoes? Did they need a Papiamento interpreter?
Hell, no. They have fully embraced British/American culture. England freed them from jungle life and infant mortality. The Americans cured yellow fever. The West has given them modern transportation. Electricity, no less.
When the delegation greets the Brits with, “Good morning,” the Brits should say, “Okay, that’s it. Meeting adjourned.”
Could this be a bait and switch?
Third world country wants some free money. Hires expensive lobby firms, PR, lawyers , MPs in target first world country to get legislation passed to obtain reparations for something.
Oh, how sad. Nothing happens. Money from third world grifters down the pan. (or rather in the pockets of the first world grifters.)
Remind me again how that Nigerian 419 scam works.
‘If the money flows like we’re finding out it does in the US, most of that will end up in Labour apparatchiks’ personal wealth.’
Trump for PM after the end of his term as President???
