Question: Describe the reaction of the british government to the sands delegation which went to london?
The British government responded to the SANNC delegation with politeness but little action when they traveled to London to protest the 1913 Land Act. The delegation presented grievances about the discriminatory law, which severely restricted African land ownership, but the British government refused to intervene, citing South Africa’s self-governing status. Despite gaining some sympathy, the delegation’s efforts were largely unsuccessful, as Britain was unwilling to challenge South Africa’s internal policies.
