Protesters have gathered outside the British high commission in Kingston, Jamaica, hours before Britain’s Prince William and his wife, Kate, arrived for a visit to the island. The demonstrators expressed opposition to the idea that Jamaica should continue to retain ties with the British crown. ‘Who are these two young white people now?
