National reparations commissions in the region will also approach Lloyd’s of London and the Church of England with demands of financial payments and reparative justice for their historic role in slavery.

    If I had inherited insane wealthy due to the horrible actions of my ancestors, then losing part of it to repay the victims of that tragedy is perfectly fine. It isn’t like I earned it through my actions, and I would expect that if someone stole something from me and gave it to someone else then I should still get it back.

    Way to be selfish though, hope it lets you sleep at night.

          Nah, I couldn’t give two shits about the royals. I just don’t want to see a ridiculous precedent set.
