Description
The events seem so long ago. Leading up to the day Britain seems focused on other matters such as finally resolving the problems associated with the Boer War through granting responsible government to Transvaal, and dealing with the storming of Parliament by over 60 womensuffragettes. And yet a hundred years later in 2007 – the UK government would unleash a massive national year-long commemoration, with a series of high profile events, beginning on 27 March with service at Westminster Abbey to Mark the Bicentenary of the Abolition of the Slave Trade Act.
