Rumour has it that Sir Trevor the Younger (i.e.Phillips , not McDonald) has some funds to use for Legacy of the slave trade abolition.
Did this money come from banks? from the corporate sector?
And how much? Was it really for reparations? And what will it be used for?
And does that mean it was in the trillions as calculated by Dr Robert Beckford when researching the issue of back pay for Africans building up the British empire? Or something less?
Is it true? Initial searches on the net reveal little, even though it is said he announced this windfall. (Gee it’s hard to find kind things being said about this man, with his head so far above the parapet – being hated on by black and white in equal measure)
Well seems like some more research needed here?
So what do YOU know? Any comments?
Is this just a rumour??
This has always been my fear: the so called black elite arguing ‘our’ case for reparations, and then when (if) we get it, it will ‘pass’ through the hands of those who are meant to be representing us. And you know what will mean – the likes of us would never see a penny. Trevor has always been somebody who is clearly just looking after himself. You wait, one day, he will be knighted by HRH, and they will only give him that according to how much selling out he has done. But I hope he will forever feel the guilt that goes with when you alienate your own.
sure that knighthood is only around the corner. he’s an establishment man
