They did not.

Slavery did exist in the UK, it was neither recognised, nor prohibited by law. The slaves worked as 'personal servants' to individuals, rather than in large groups as field workers, as in the colonies.

While some slaves must have rebelled against this, there was no wide-scale revolt, the slaves were all widely separated, and vastly outnumbered.

Slavery was eventually abolished in the UK, after a legal precedent was set that since slavery it was not recognised by law, and a person could not legally agree to become a slave, that an attempt to exercise such authority over some was in fact false imprisonment or assault.
