Closed petition 2 Minute Silence for anti-slavery and our colonial past.
Closed on
Government to consider a 2 minute silence to remember the impact of our colonial past and the lives lost during the British empire.
This will serve as a reminder and a poignant event in our national calendar to recognise the oppression that was inflicted by our government and foreign policy, and a national opportunity to reflect and remember the generations affected. This could be conducted on international anti slavery day.
