Yeah. And think about it this way, no court in Britain would hold an individual responsible for the actions of another person, so why should British folks today (who never owned slaves) pay extra reparations to the descendants (who were never slaves themselves) of the slaves, that we paid to free in the first place? This is nothing but a money grab, attempted by people who have a major sense of entitlement.
It gets worse. Some of them are going further and demanding every UK citizen be indentured into forced service in said countries for the next century or two.
Don't worry EVERYONE WILL PAY FOR THEIR PART IN THE CRUELTY . it's not about the slavery .... I about the theft , torture , rape and colonisation . "YOU WENT TO FAR " that's the word of god . Read the bible . YOU WILL SERVE YOUR SENTENCE .... as we Did ... but double 900+yrs . That's prophecy. Talk all you want . But when I happens just know you could have changed It ... but God knows you well . Arrogance and pride .
And most people in the country, DIDN'T OWN SLAVES. my family didn't, my husbands family didn't. It's all upper middle class and above. Most of us, our families were too poor to own SLAVES. I'm sick of hearing it it now. I bet if you looked into the mps trees, you'd find lots of slave ownership.
Also, how do you find out whose ancestors were slaves and whose were slave owners. Why should people who did not endure the suffering their ancestors did, need to get money? It's just pure greed which will go into some corrupt person's pocket.
Funny how nobody's outraged at the reparations paid to the slave masters . But you will pay the price as a nation for what they did . They are STILL FILTHY RICH TODAY. THATS BIBLE PROPHECY READ ISAIAH 14 JOEL 3 & OBADIAH

Rafe is absolutely correct, he does his homework and represents common sense, on the other hand we have Lammie someone who is thicker than mud embarrassing the UK on the World Stage, it is Thanks to the British that the Slave Trade was abolished with the help of the Royal Navy.
The British* slave trade was abolished. And at least 1/5 of the neglected West African Squadron section of the british navy was of ethnic West African stock and they did most of the reconnaissance and fighting. History is not black and white. Otherwise, the Haitians had abolished slavery over three years before with a monumental defeat over the french empire after a 13 year war of independence. And the french had actually outlawed the slave trade under Robespierre ten years in the decade before the Haitians did, in part because he sided with the Haitian revolutionaries. You shouldn't just blindly repeat things.
British government owes every Scot & their descendants kicked off their lands & transported to the colonies reparations. Highland clearances lowland clearances took place unlawfully in Scotland murdering Scot’s people.
WHY IS IT ...... that you don't see It as unpaid labour ? If I took your family heirlooms and sold them wouldn't I owe you? If your workplace didn't pay you for 3 months would you forget it ?

And it was the Dutch who took those slaves to the carribean nothing to do with Britain. Lammy doesnt know his history.and dont forget the amount of foreign aid given to these countries since 1945.
It's absolutely staggering to think that it is even being contemplated.
The usual lot wanting more free stuff
Have you seen how bad Jamaica is since they requested their removal from the commonwealth.
Why should we fix or pay what they have destroyed.
It's like paying child support for a child that isn't yours to a woman you have never met, totally ridiculous, if they get money I want money from the Arabs
What about the 1.25 million white Europeans who were sold to North Africa and Asia?
Are the common wealth going to pay us reparations for doing that to us?
Digging up a century old issue that every single country is guilty of.
I can’t believe this is actually happening.
1.25 million Europeans sold to Asia and Africa 🤭🤭🤭 omg you guys are seriously thick...that never happened anytime in history, if it did send me the facts?! Send them now and prove to us your not stupid 😂😂😂 bet you cant find em 😂
@@Matrix-ik2tr According to Robert Davis, between 1 million and 1.25 million Europeans were captured by Barbary pirates and sold as slaves in North Africa and Ottoman Empire between the 15th and 19th centuries. -Wikipedia

Although, I’m suspecting you are either just going to ignore this, call me a liar despite the facts and your lack of evidence, or you are just going to report me.
Either way, you are beyond help, especially with the amount of emojis used in your comment. Borderline insane behaviour right there.
@@Matrix-ik2tr def trolling. there’s plenty of evidence and books but I doubt you’d read them. You’d much rather listen to your own fantasy than face reality, like any left-wing activist.
I do not want my TAX money being given away. Not my problem. Do these people just want a hand out.
Rafe spot on as usual
Don't pay them a penny
Raffe looks amazingly like the guy in the Slave Trader portrait.
Yes he'd look a spitting image if he was wearing a turban weilding a schimitar and chaining the ankles of a young black man wouldn't he..
@@julianpetkov8320 hiding replies huh? tut tut...Julian is that a boyz name or gals by the way?? Either way it sounds Kweer..
Money should come from the Labour communist party plus Rishi Sunak and wife simple
We need politicians with a backbone. Some hope!! Lammy is a buffoon besides having dual nationality so not loyal to the country that welcomed his family and gave him the opportunity to have a good life.
Lammy is quite honestly totally out of his depth.
He is so uneducated and incapable of speaking intellectually on just about any topic.....how on earth did he get the position??????
DEI hire.
Give history debunked a listen,
Lammy has sent a memo amongst his staff about black history month and as expected he's got a few things wrong factually.
@@robertmeldrum2084 UA-cam are hiding the truth.
Lammy shouldn't be in a government position.
The British stopped the slave trade. These countries owe Britain the costs of putting an end to the disgusting practice.
Proof time and time again to NEVER give "people who annoy you" political power ANYWHERE. Useless leeches.
Rafe as usual puts all this nonsence
in too perspective
✌️🇬🇧💕
The way how these two presenters are just laughing all the way through this video, speaks volumes about this channel.
When will this reparation rubbish go away? Or maybe it is we who should NOT go away to the Caribbean....no holidaymakers, no cruise ships....no income
Strange, David Lamy is not even from the Caribbean. He is African.
Lammy is hilariously stupid .😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He makes chimps look intelligent
@@ClactonCuuna racist Muslim. Who would have thought.
@@factsdontcareaboutyourfeel7204
I’m not racist, but if you’re anti British then everything is fair game, including colour 😊
They had the islands given to them! Free and clear! Many. Lacks were also slavers what happens them?
Can somebody wake me up please, and tell me this is a bad dream
Three generations of career welfare recipient's? free housing, free utilities, education & medical treatment?
Well Lammy is screwed then. He is from Guyana. Britain did not take control of the country until after the slave trade had been abolished in Britain. So we imported no slaves there. He hasn't done his homework as usual. The man is a total fool.
Try reading about the Barbary Pirates, who, many years before the Atlantic slave trade, used to sail to the south coast of England, and capture entire villages, to be taken for slaves in the Mediterranean region. The Barbary Pirates were from Africa. Can we claim reparations from them? 🤔
ONLY ONE MAN IN THE WORLD WILL EVER BE ENTITLED TO THIS MONEY!!! THAT WILL BE ME, FOR AS LONG AS I HAVE ONE BREATH IN MY BODY!!!!
THOSE OF YOU FOREVER BLEATING AND RANTING ABOUT REPERATIONS, SHUT UP AND GO AWAY!!!! GO AWAY AND SHUT UP!!!!
Most slaves stayed in Africa, a smaller number went north across the Sahara in the Arabic trade, and smaller number still went across the Atlantic to the Americas. There are still 9 million people in slavery in Africa today
Yes, Lammy the Carabean should seek reparations from Africa.
"Activist" has become a dirty word.
After they pay us for ending it
Everything has been tickety-boo in Liberia hasn't it?
Why is a Caribbean person in the UK government. Lammy is not British, he says he is Caribbean
My husbands nan has paid her taxes her entire life. Needs surgery , was told she's too old to be helped now.
This is our future. I'm 31, but I fear there won't be a pension or any nhs when I'm old
Some people come out of the womb holding a begging bowl.
By the end of World War II Britain had amassed an immense debt of £21 billion. Much of this was held in foreign hands, with around £3.4 billion being owed overseas (mainly to creditors in the United States), a sum which represented around one third of annual GDP. and they want trillions LOFL
If you give the Caribbeans £19 trillion then there will be no money left to pay the Benefits for all the Caribbean’s over here.
We left them paradises and they trashed them, now come to us with a begging bowl. Well Lammy by is own admission is not one of us, so if he wants reparations he needs to go home first.
The Caribbean is not trashed. You obviously do not know what you’re talking about.
@@jujutrini8412 then why do they need our money, gobby
It is the age old saying "what if" what if slavery never happened in what state would these country's be like now!! lets have a guess they would be in a worse state than they are now.
Slavery was a terrible thing, and not defending it, but if not for slavery how many black people would be in positions of wealth, and power, in the first world today? NONE!
all these countries asking for reparations have a much better lifestyle because of their association with the UK.
They'd still be in sub saharan Africa in loin cloth living in the stone age with a short life expectancy.
its like they believe they were slaves themselves
Rafe is awesome at destroying nonsense with historical facts.
I want reparations for when my Irish ancestors were slaves.
Reparations in the form of lots of money for all of the loss and harm.
Ludicrous.
The Caribbean is on the way to the US not the UK, nothing to do with Britain. Britain fought wars to stop it.
Send back one immigrant for everyone they lost and charge them for the privalage
If we were stupid enough to pay them any money, who would we pay it to and what would they do with it?
Check out a Dave Chappell sketch about reparations, beside a good laught ull get ur answer
Spend it on weed
Their greedy politicians would steal most of it.
