The Liberal Democrat leader, Ed Davey, has called for a national debate over Britain's role in the slave trade, after the coronation reignited questions over the monarchy's historical links.He said he wanted a more open-minded approach to dealing with questions over the UK's role in enslaving Africans, praising the path taken by the New Zealand government, which has offered an apology and more than $150m in reparations to Indigenous communities for past mistreatment.
