Re: Brown is planning to apologies

I'm not having a 'pop' at anyone.
And while I agree that recognising that such inhumane things happened, I feel that it is insincere to apologise for something that you had no part in, and therefore it devalues the apology.
My feeling is, that you can only apologise, and make reparation for the things that you were personally accountable for....apologising for anything else is just a sham.
