Former British colonies owe debt of gratitude', says Robert Jenrick
Briefly

Robert Jenrick argues that former colonies should express gratitude for the British Empire's legacy of legal and democratic institutions, rather than demand reparations, as he believes the empire introduced elements of order in societies that were, according to him, guided by 'violent tyranny' before British involvement.
In his critique of the reparations debate, Jenrick emphasizes the alleged influence of leftist ideologies in universities, challenging the narrative that focuses purely on past injustices without recognizing the complexities of historical events, including the context in which the empire operated.
