Antigua PM asks Wessexes to use ‘diplomatic influence’ in bid for reparations
The Earl of Wessex gave a nervous laugh after the Prime Minister of Antigua and Barbuda urged him and Sophie to use their “diplomatic influence” to achieve “reparatory justice” for the island.
Edward joked that he had not been taking notes during Gaston Browne’s opening remarks so could not respond to all the points he had made.
The prime minister did not laugh at the comment.
It follows protests on the couple’s visit to St Vincent and the Grenadines on Saturday, where banners were held aloft saying “compensation now” and “Britain your debt is outstanding”.
Mr Browne also told the earl and countess it is the country’s wish to “one day become a republic”.
The prime minister’s remarks came at a meeting between Edward and Sophie, Mr Browne and his cabinet during their visit to the island on Monday.
The earl nervously laughed after being asked to give words in response to Mr Browne’s speech.
Despite stating the country would one day want to change position, the prime minister acknowledged that it is “not currently on the cards”.

‘Take that back!’ | BRUTAL Brexit clash gets PERSONAL over the impact of it on Britain’s economy
A heated Brexit debate erupts as broadcaster and author Emma Wolfe clashes with former Labour minister Bill Rammell over the impact of Brexit on Britain’s economy. The exchange quickly turns personal, with Wolfe challenging the arguments being made about Britain’s economic outlook and firing back with a blunt assessment: “Can we trust him? No.”
Wolfe also takes aim at Andy Burnham over what she describes as a “fiscal crisis looming”, accusing him of contributing to uncertainty in the markets. She dismisses Burnham’s attempts to point back to the 1980s and Margaret Thatcher when discussing the challenges facing Britain today, calling it “embarrassing” and arguing that responsibility lies with those in power now.
The debate reaches boiling point when Wolfe and Rammell clash over Brexit and its consequences for the British economy, culminating in the explosive demand: “Take that back!”

Mark Littlewood says “we now live in gaslit Britain” after it emerged the Home Office published a guide for illegal migrants on how “not to rape women”.
It is just one of the resources available in a collection titled: “Understanding behaviours and expectations in the UK: a guide for asylum seekers”.
Posters and information on rape, the age of consent and child abuse are among the guides to help asylum seekers “understand what is expected when living in the UK”.
The guidance highlights child rape is illegal “even if they look older” or if “it is allowed in another country”.
Speaking to Patrick Christys on GB News, political commentator Mark Littlewood said: “This pamphlet is extraordinary. And the reason I find it so extraordinary and disturbing is if you need that pamphlet, I don’t want you anywhere near my country.”
A Home Office spokesperson told GB News: “We expect everyone who comes to the UK to abide by our laws.
“If they do not, they will face consequences, including the refusal of their asylum claim and removal from the UK.
“Returns of failed asylum seekers have reached their highest level since 2010 under this Government.”

Patrick Christys delivers a damning monologue claiming Andy Burnham’s borrowing and spending plans will bankrupt Britain.
In his PMQs debut, Prime Minister Andy Burnham defended his economic strategy against a backdrop of 18-year high national borrowing costs.
Facing sharp questioning from Tory leader Kemi Badenoch regarding debt management and budget cuts, Burnham attributed current market instability to the structural vulnerabilities inherited from the previous administration.
Stepping into the role following Sir Keir Starmer’s exit in July, Burnham told Parliament his leadership would balance rigorous fiscal rules with targeted relief for the public’s rising cost of living.
