Comments by "Philip Rayment" (@PJRayment) on "'Senior management caved in': Professor's book on colonialism was cancelled by publisher" video.
@patsimpson7834 Actually, Wilberforce's first success regarding slavery was in getting the slave trade abolished (in 1807). It was the international trade which the navy was charged with enforcing. He didn't manage to get slavery itself abolished in Britain until 1833, just before his death.

@patsimpson7834 "I don't remember mentioning any dates." I didn't say that you did. I was simply pointing out that the navy didn't enforce the abolition of slavery, but of the slave trade, which came earlier.
