Caribbean reparatory justice leaders say UK debt relief and development aid cannot substitute for reparations for centuries of slavery. Prime Minister Andy Burnham has proposed structured talks and said Britain could apologise, while ruling out reparations. He also proposed discussing debt resets for smaller Commonwealth countries and announced £40m for Caribbean infrastructure over three years.
