You mean the Tate & Lyle company that were formed 80 years after slavery was abolished ?
What do they need to apologise for ? Or Brooke Bond who were formed a mere 10 years after slavery was abolished ? What and whom should they apologise for and whom to ?

Well convince them he did, and not only did he convince them, he eventually convinced the rest of the World to abolish slavery.
The U.K. put an end to slavery. The U.K. didn't start slavery and the U.K. didn't permit slaves to be used in the UK (or something )
The U.K. should be proud of its record regarding slavery

You mean the slave trade which Britain fought to abolish ? The slave trade that went on for hundreds of years between Africa and Arabia before Britain joined in ? The slave trade in which Africans participated in by selling their fellow Countrymen to Foreigners.?
The U.K. did not start slavery and we were the first Country to abolish it .
Slavery still goes on to this day , you can buy a Congolese Man for about U.S.$100 in a Congolese market .
The U.K.s record on Slavery is quite good , compared to other Countries .

He speaks like a typical Tory with a plum up his bum.
Maybe he has a few points, but it is the same crap as in the US, everyone pointing fingers and not working 'a way out'. Highlighting some scary consequences, e.g. education..but the problems there are not new, as they are not new in the US. In fact, i think a big underlying factor to all of what is happening right now, has been the neglect of a good education system, for decades..
A lot of Britain's problems come from America having held them by the nads for so long. 30 years ago the EU might have been a good idea. And I am not into that proud to be British, Nationalistic BS.

Is Daniel Hannan's accent the usual for S.E.Eng. or is it from somewhere else?

Now if only U.S.Presidents would be spoken to as directly...
