Because I’ve got scones and England on the brain today - here’s the amazing tea feast we had at Bettys in York back in 2019. If you visit York you HAVE to go.

Jamaica may demand reparations from UK to fund heritage “dark tourism”

The Caribbean nation, which was under British rule until 1962, is considering plans to persuade the UK government and major museums to fund exhibitions devoted to colonialism, according to The Telegraph.

Reparation payments of around £500,000 are expected to be spent on preserving ports, hospitals and courthouses associated with imperial rule. The plans emerged after The Telegraph reported that Edmund Bartlett, Jamaica’s tourism minister, voiced hope to preserve Georgian sites, including slave houses, as potential centres of “dark tourism.”

“We are interested in what is called ‘dark tourism’. The built heritage is very, very important, because it tells a story in stone and sticks and mortar. Jamaica, being a confluence of so many cultures and peoples, has a story that you need to connect with, because a little piece [of the British] is really here, a piece of your history, your past.”
