Petition on West Indies slavery and coal duties debated in Commons
Members debated Sir Robert Wilson's slave petition from Southwark and reflected on the abolition movement. The House considered coal duties and their impact on Ireland and ports, with ministers urged to repeal. Lord A Hamilton attacked Foreign Affairs policy and the Holy Alliance, arguing for a cautious adjournment and scrutiny of papers due April.
