He probably posted his apology from an iPhone assembled by a Uyghur Muslim enslaved in China.

Does he have profound pride in the British Navy's almost single handed role in ending the slave trade despite strenuous resistance from every other European nation, African tribal leaders and Muslim slave traders?

He is referring to the wars England fought against the Muslim slave traders, right?
That’s what he is apologizing for?

No offence, but it’s been 200 years. Get over it, already.

Just curious, what continent did the white slaves (stolen from Baltimore Ireland in 1631) get taken to again?
To: conservative98
The British Navy did more to end the slave trade than any one else.

“How about the african tribes that sold their own people?”
They often snatched their merchandise from other tribes, especially if they didn’t have criminal members of their own tribe to sell to the slave traders.

Dumbass..Slavery was not invented by Britain.
They were one of the first countries to stop it.

Yeah Wills, you Brits also enslaved my Irish ancestors.
We’re over it now.
Move on and just stop with the annoying, dripping virtue signaling.

Some famous guy with a Kenyan connection has Somali facial features.
Think of whom that might be and how that came to be.
