Labour MP Bell Ribeiro-Addy has urged the UK government to ban the sale of human remains in auction houses and on social media platforms, citing a legal loophole that allows such sales. Highlighting the disturbing nature of these transactions, she mentioned objects like a foetal skeleton and human bone jewelry. Ribeiro-Addy emphasized the need for action to address the commodification of human remains, particularly those from indigenous communities, which she argues perpetuates a legacy of exploitation and colonialism.
