The leader of the UK Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch, says Britain should have voted against the UN resolution, which described slavery as the greatest crime against humanity and demanded slavery reparations from former colonial authorities. The UK, along with 51 other mostly tained. In a post on X, Badenoch criticized the UK government, saying the resolution could lead to "trillions in reparations from UK taxpayers" and questioning why Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s representative did not oppose it. She argued that Britain should not pay reparations, insisting "Britain led the fight to end slavery." The resolution, which was introduced by Ghana, urges the creation of a global reparations fund and calls on nations to acknowledge and apologize for their role in the transatlantic slave trade.

Superb political ad. One of the best you’ll see. This is better, and resonates more, than anything coming from Labour or the Tories.

ایک مسیحی کم سن بچی کو اغوا کرنا، اس پر مذہب بدلنے کا دباؤ ڈالنا اور اسے زبردستی شادی پر مجبور کرنا کسی ایک خاندان کا نہیں، پوری انسانیت کا المیہ ہے۔ بچپن چھین لینا، مرضی کو کچل دینا اور شناخت مٹا دینا کسی بھی معاشرے کے لیے شرمناک ہے۔ اس ظلم پر خاموش رہنا بھی ظلم کا ساتھ دینا ہے۔
