UK king calls slavery ‘monstrous injustice’ as PM mulls apology
During a Commonwealth summit in Antigua and Barbuda, King Charles III described the transatlantic slave trade as a "monstrous injustice" and highlighted its enduring impact on member nations. UK leader Andy Burnham is open to discussions about issuing a formal apology for Britain's role in slavery, but has ruled out financial reparations, stating that addressing historical wrongs should not lead to liability for present-day citizens.
