Wasn't one of Tony Blair's murky foundations named Windrush? He shut it down pretty sharpish once Trump came on the scene, and had his eye on the Clinton Foundation.

In May’s “toxic environment” you can live, work & pay taxes in Britain for over half a century - yet still be denied life saving NHS care, lose your job & be treated with utter contempt.
Toxic? This is inhumane, vicious & utterly indefensible.

When I read about this story I sat and contemplated their plight against the backdrop of non-doms and worshipped tax-exiles from sport and business for just a few moments. What a ****ing stupid country we live in.
I assume you’ve read the article and are aware of the awful way these UK citizens have been treated? This government stinks.
Indeed dreadful stuff ,it seems no one has suffered and the government today has committed to a fix Mrs Rudd was annoyed at someone in the backroom over this
goes way back apparently to 1973 so various governments
Like this well documented case in Cardiff.

The way that young man was treated was just awful.
No, just the tories

What seems particularly bad in regards to timing is that it’s been 50 years this week since Enoch Powell’s Rivers Of Blood speech.
Your Government is supporting a guide to help those not properly British live at 'home' in Jamaica. The first page tells people the area code for Jamaica.

I think you’ll find people have been deported. Why are people so quick to defend this government when they have clearly treated their own citizens in this way?

Oh and also civil servants carry out the laws set out by government, this government.
Do agree monumental civil servant cock up rather than for some nasty political malicious reasons , the output if deliberate has no real impact on immigration figures ,it would just create awful headlines and pain for these poor people .
Glad it's been spotted and stopped , now onto fixing the issues of other victims, isolated by poor poltics views and thoughts .
Just listened to a lovely elderly lady from the Caribbean, who was caught up in this , she was so reasoned to why and how this has happened , not wishing to blame , but calmly and rightly seek a solution and explanation as to how some folk got caught between legislation changes since 1943 and the right to work 2012 bill brought about by folks attitude in this country to immigration.
Some of these poor folk got caught due to simple ignorance, some caught through civil service incompetence, some through lack of understanding , and poor education , many of us in times like this rush to blame the political party they dislike so much , no one would wish this headline .
If it was a thought through right wing political agenda ,it was a crazy one and an unlikely one in my view , as it effects a tiny minority in relation to the population ,and a much bigger unwanted headline.
According to the Caribbean lady who came over with the Windrush , they are all mainly very elderly folk now , some too frightened/ cautious out of ignorance to come forward , or simply not that organised to find or able too substantiate thier lost or never held paperwork , it was left fester or was hidden away, as a consequence , by not coming forward that left them a void of not knowing on either side ,real folk and paperwork clock up then folliwed .
All very sad, however ,thankfully it all looks like being addressed , thank God , as we owe them a lot.
Going back in time , I can remember their arrival on our shores the dreadful headlines when they took up jobs in inner cities being badly taken ,folk looked down upon them called them names and isolated them into specific areas and communities and that in my experince ordinary working class folk, poorly aimed insults and name calling followed, which I won't repeat , as its was shameful ,as it was forced upon us by our own folk and not just as our inotbwilling to drive buses, trains , empty bins etc , how times have changed ,thankfully for the better ,that includes governents and awful folk like Enoch Powell and TV charecters like All Garnett accusing coloured folk of taking our jobs which ironically we didnt want , that was the biggest insult and crime we delivered to our Caribbean friends .
Your support for this government is admirable but this is just another example of how this government treats those in society who need help the most. Good God even the DM are having a go, surely a first.

What I don’t understand was the need for Police/Immigration Officer raids and whisking them off to detention centres.
I mean for FFS someone’s dropped a right bollock here.
It looks like they have cobbled together some kind of legislation (a form!) as a short term fix.
Some lady interviewed on the BBC news with her daughter described how she hid the initial inflamatory documentation received from her daughter to mitigate the stress on her.
The daughter is rightly upset and angry, especially as they have been told they do not now have to leave the country within 6 months as originally stated.... but will need to be revisited in 2014. WTF
Pigeon holing people is an obsession these days. The daughter was saying that even reference to the term 'windrush' is derogatory.
Yes, it has been through many governments since the 'windrush' but Teresa May has to take responsibility in bringing this to a head.
The government are crapping themselves at the undoubted public outcry ahead of the BBC programme which is being aired tonight.
It will be uncomfortable watching and will cause more angst for our carribean friends who have suffered enough prejudice in this country for decades.
FFS you patronising twat. For the last time I AM NOT YOUR LOVE. Give it a rest and accept that this government are a bunch of evil bastards.
He’s a Tory troll NQAT. They still don’t know if anyone had been deported

Amber Rudd delivered an unprecedented apology in the Commons on Monday for the “appalling” actions of her department.
So there you go, never trust a Tory.
