Ahead of the upcoming Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in Samoa from October 21-26, renewed calls for Britain to pay slavery reparations, which could amount to over £200 billion, have been directed at both King Charles and Labour leader Keir Starmer.
Fifteen Caribbean nations, members of the Caribbean Community (Caricom), are set to raise the issue of reparations during the meeting. All candidates for the Commonwealth Secretary-General position have expressed support for reparations related to transatlantic slavery and colonialism.
