Charles sorry on excess of Empire

He and his elder son the Duke of Cambridge want a reset of the 54-nation association of mainly former British Empire countries by addressing the lingering resentment over the legacy of slavery.

In a speech at the opening of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Rwanda, Charles gave his blessing to countries wanting to ditch the monarchy.

He also said the group could only move forward and be a force for good if the wrongs of the past were properly acknowledged.
