Comments

1. Elin: charles didn't exactly inherit a clean slate anyway what's he gonna do change course now?
2. Rossitalia: surprised they're not going straight to Britain's pm instead of the king seems like a step backward still want to know what specific form these reparations would take
3. Danelundxo: they're finally taking this to the right people i'm glad they're not giving up on getting some actual justice here
4. Santosaiden: said they'd get to reparations eventually
5. Brunoyang: finally someone's holding brits accountable, been a long time coming 💥
6. Diego: somehow this feels like a rerun of the whole reparations debate all over again
7. Ravi: finally some traction on the whole reparations thing - but what's with the statue?
8. Mia: said like Britain's guilty conscience is going to magically fix centuries of systemic brutality with a nicely worded petition 🚮
9. Static Sparrow: interesting that it's being presented as a formal petition now, not sure if anything'll come of it
10. Ariaf: it's about time we see this issue recognized on a monarch-to-monarch level
11. Solar Reaper: Petitions to the King shouldn't be the first step. When will they talk to Parliament?
