Slave reparations!
I’m all in!
I’ve decided to personally gift £1 million Sterling to every single person my family ever enslaved.
Please form an orderly queue and bring:
• Ironclad documents proving my family personally enslaved you (bonus points if they include my great-great-grandpa’s signature and a Polaroid).
• Your birth certificate proving you were born before Britain abolished slavery on 1 August 1834.
• Proof you’re still alive (the gift can only be claimed in person, no ghosts, no estates, no “my ancestor told me so”).
Oh, and while you’re at it, maybe swing by the local cemetery with a shovel. I’m sure those poor souls buried since the 1800s would appreciate being dug up for their cheque. They’ve waited long enough, right?
Look, if we’re doing “reparations” for historical slavery, let’s do it properly: only to the actual victims. Not their great-great-great-grandchildren who were born free in the 20th or 21st century, sipping oat milk lattes while tweeting about “trauma.”
This isn’t justice, it’s a cosmic-level grift.
It’s like demanding the Roman Empire pay for the roads they built because some distant ancestor got conquered by Caesar. Or billing modern Italians for every Gaul who got turned into a slave 2,000 years ago.
Newsflash: No living person in Britain today was a slave under British law, and no living person in Britain today owned slaves under British law.
The people who suffered are dead. The people who profited are dead.
Their descendants, Black, White, Asian, mixed, whatever had zero say in it.
Chasing “reparations” from random taxpayers (including the descendants of abolitionists, coal miners, and people who arrived after 1834) isn’t healing historical wounds. It’s creating new ones while opening the most hilarious Pandora’s box in human history:
• Should Ireland demand reparations from Britain for the Potato Famine?
• Should Britain demand reparations from Denmark for the Viking slave raids?
• Should Italians bill Mongols for the sack of Baghdad?
• Should every African nation start invoicing each other for the centuries of tribal warfare and slave-trading that predated (and supplied) the transatlantic trade?
Where does the grievance chain end? 1066? The Bronze Age?
Lucy the Australopithecus getting stiffed on her cave rent?
Slavery was a universal human horror, practised by every civilisation from the Egyptians to the Aztecs to the Arabs to the Africans themselves (who sold millions into the trade).
Britain didn’t invent it.
Britain ended it, at massive cost, with the Royal Navy spending decades hunting slave ships while other empires kept right on going.
Demanding cash from people who never owned slaves, to give to people who were never slaves, isn’t “reparations.” It’s retroactive time-travel cosplay with other people’s money. It’s the ultimate participation trophy for historical victimhood: “My ancestor suffered, therefore I deserve a payout… even though I live in a free society with more opportunity than 99.9% of humans who ever lived.”
If you want actual justice, how about this radical idea:
Stop obsessing over who owes whom from 200 years ago, and start judging people by what they do today. Work hard. Build. Create. Don’t inherit grievances like their family heirlooms.
The desire for slavery reparations isn’t righteous anger. It’s lazy, entitled, historically illiterate greed dressed up as moral superiority, demanding a lottery win for a suffering you never endured, from people who never caused it.
My £1 million offer stands.
Just bring the paperwork.
And a time machine.

@policeconduct @BTP If thy were two white kids there wouldn’t have even been an investigation. Yet again the Inept Office for Police Conduct listening to the vocal minority. You have little to no Police experience and are unfit for purpose.

Is This Plausible?
I am Morgan Macsweeney
I am Chief Of Staff to the Prime Minister of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
I hold a top-secret security clearance
I own a mobile phone
I use this phone to conduct Government Business
I use this phone to message with Lord Mandelson
My phone is tracked by GCHQ
There are protocols for officials using personal phones to conduct Government business
My communications are monitored to ensure they are not intercepted
My phone is "stolen" a month after Lord Mandelson is sacked
The police do not investigate
The phone is not tracked down
The police are too busy to track down the phone the most senior member of the Prime Minister's team - someone with a top-secret security clearance
I do not contact my service provider to block the stolen phone
I do not consider asking GCHQ to do this as a national security priority
I do not ask for a replacement sim
I do not buy a new phone
I do not activate my new phone with the new sim
I do not log-in to my Google account
I do not select "Restore"
I do not download WhatsApp
I do not recover my messages
Nobody, ever, who had their phone stolen was ever able to get their messages back.
