New Archbishop urged to cancel £100m slavery reparations plan

The incoming Archbishop of Canterbury, Dame Sarah Mullally, is urged by Conservative MPs and peers to halt a £100m fund aimed at addressing the Church of England's historical links to slavery, with critics arguing the funds should be used for core church activities rather than controversial projects. The fund was announced following a report revealing the Church's historical investments in slavery, and the Church emphasizes its commitment to justice and transparency in managing the fund.
