🚢 Windrush

Seriously?

Wtf?

Deporting people who lived and contributed to the UK for 50 years?

I know May destroyed the Home Office I saw that from the clusterfuck at Heathrow & Border Control.

But surely this is just WRONG

This could also go in the Tory thread.

I attend my union agm yesterday and a woman whose partner was put in detention twice to.be deported spoke. Only when the Guardian raised this did he get leave to remain. Apparently a lot of MPs were told about this before it hit the news and didn’t do much about it

Pretty depressing read.

Shameful…sickening…

He had leave to remain. He was also in care as a child. The local government would have been his parent.
The inhumanity of this system.

They should be reimbursed for all that they have lost. To the full amount. I know a EU citizen who was also treated abysmally a few years ago just because she had a child and couldn’t work. She should have been compensated too. It may be the next challenge.
