Pay full financial reparations to the victims of the slave trade.
The countries that suffered during the slave trade not only built the Britain that we live in today for free, but MOST of what we call the 'developed West'. The removal of all statues etc the celebrate slavery.
The descendants of slavery are still traumatised by social, psychological and financial tumult. The time is now, to re pay them.
