Ex-BBC Journalist Urged To Pay Reparations For Ancestor's Role In Irish Famine
Laura Trevelyan, whose great, great, great-grandfather Sir Charles Trevelyan oversaw the UK government’s response to the tragedy, said that her family would consider reparations if the Irish government found her family were “liable”.
