Caribbean pushes for return of BVI and royal backing on decolonisation
Caricom’s Reparations Commission is urging the UK to return the British Virgin Islands and asking King Charles to back decolonising Britain’s remaining overseas territories, warning that without action there could be a resurgence of colonisation. The group ties reparations to sovereignty and self-determination, criticises governance by UK-appointed governors, and rolls out a new manifesto to advance the reparations and decolonisation agenda while seeking broader ties with Africa and African Americans.
