Why, Sam? The UK were heavily involved in the slave trade. Which they would love people to forget about, btw.

Like Spain & Portugal, England kept its slaves at a distance - oceans away from the homeland. IIRC, all 13 colonies had slaves - and 75 years after independence those that outlawed it fought a war that outlawed it in the rest.
