Kemi Badenoch has said she believes the British Empire was overall a force for good, as she criticised Andy Burnham for considering a formal apology for slavery. The Conservative leader told Sky News terrible things happened in all empires and said she had had enough of apologies. She warned the move could put pressure on the King before next week's Commonwealth leaders' summit in Antigua.
