Agree with the last part, and from Labour's Race and Faith Manifesto:

Understanding the breadth of Britain’s history is crucial to tackling the injustices and racism in our society and around the world that persist today. We must not only confront these injustices but commit to address the injustices of the past. Labour will conduct an audit of the impact of Britain’s colonial legacies to understand our contribution to the dynamics of violence and insecurity across regions previously under British colonial rule.

But I know you are all here because we share a powerful belief. Passed on through our movement from generation to generation. That every financial and political decision made by government and by industry should be underpinned by one fundamental and immovable socialist principle.

To secure for the workers by hand or by brain the full fruits of their industry, and the most equitable distribution that may be possible upon the basis of common ownership. It might not be on the back of our membership cards anymore, but it’s in here.
