As representative of the great and flourishing commercial town of Liverpool,
-
I must once again remind the House that we have no evidence
-
that the Africans themselves have any objection to the trade.
-
I have here an account written by a... Mr Clutterbuck...
-
...which states that most slaves in the Indies
-
have a snug little garden with plenty of pigs and poultry.
-
There are many poor families in Liverpool who do not have as much.
-
Which... Which is why,
-
apart from a few mendicant physicians and itinerant clergymen,
-
the ordinary people of Britain are not at all exercised
-
by the whole issue of slavery.

My honourable friend, the member for Liverpool,
