This is just like the issue in San Francisco where the council is thinking about reparations for local Afro Americans.

There has been an outcry from Chinese and other Asians saying that they should also be included.

I guess you can call that a new #Metoo campaign.

I'm all in favour of it as I am a victim of the Irish potato famine which was after slavery was abolished so i think I should be first in line.

If individual families and corporations wish to cleanse themselves by paying reparations, that is up to them. But I don’t see why the British taxpayer should be held responsible for things that happened centuries ago. As I have stated and implied elsewhere, go after the sellers of slaves in Africa; their descendants are beneficiaries.

hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing.

Rome was big on Slavery. Go after modern Italians. A huge proportion of them today are descended from pretty Slav girls & their humpy old Roman Dominus.

will Italians pay reparation-money to Poland ?

I would introduce a voluntary additional tax. If people feel guilty about it, they can pay an extra penny on the pound in income tax.

And offer people a badge they can wear to let us all know. Or a hat.
