Why King Charles is Wrong About Slavery | Melanie Phillips

In this clip, John and Melanie discuss the implications and shortcomings of King Charles’ expressed desire to conduct an enquiry into the historic associations of the British monarchy with slavery. Melanie’s column currently appears in The Times, but over the years she has been published by the Guardian, Observer, Sunday Times and Daily Mail. She also writes for the Jewish Chronicle and Jewish News Syndicate. Her best-selling book Londonistan, about the British establishment’s capitulation to Islamist aggression, was published in 2006 by Encounter, New York. She followed this in 2010 with The World Turned Upside Down: the Global Battle over God, Truth and Power, and in 2018 with her first novel, The Legacy. This is the third time she and John have sat down to talk. #uk #coronation #britain -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- See full interview here: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Conversations feature John Anderson, former Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, interviewing the world’s foremost thought leaders about today’s pressing social, cultural and political issues.
