It would appear that “former Tory MP Antoinette Sandbach has threatened the University of Cambridge with legal action after a historian named her as a descendant of merchants who enslaved his ancestors.”
Oh, my… It would be a damn shame if more people knew of this so please do not boost this post.

In Graves Unmarked: Slavery and Abolition in Stoneham, Massachusetts by Ben Jacques

“In winter the bare trees are black against the snow and sky in the Old Burying Ground on Pleasant Street. Like frosting, snow decorates the gravestones of our town’s early families. The Bryants, the Bucknams, the Gerrys, the Greens, the Goulds, the Hays—our founders.
But beyond the cluster of 18th and 19th century stones, there are bare spots where no markers disturb the gentle slope of the earth. Here those with no status in colonial Stoneham lie in unmarked graves. Here are buried the town’s slaves.”
So begins the untold story of slavery and abolition in a town of farmers and shoemakers just north of Boston. Once part of Charlestown, the village was incorporated in 1725 as Stoneham, Massachusetts.

Raising productivity is done by investment in equipment, education & training, not flogging people.
The #toriesOut seem to have retained the mental attitude of #slaveOwners long after sl;avery was abolished./
No wonder UK productivity is so low if that is their mindset
