Windrush 19:08 - Apr 23 with 22809 views | Bushman | Fckin shameful the way these people have been treated after they came to work here as commonwealth citizens and help rebuild Britain after WW2. They also made up 15% of the population at the time. | |
| I know almost nothing about the Premier League even though I try to catch the big games every now and then at the end of the season. But I will say this, Queens Park Rangers is just a fukking sick ass team name. Just sounds so cool. |

Windrush on 12:25 - Apr 24 with 14355 views | philc | Last week when my Mother-In-Law came over my kids all joked asking when she was being deported. Understandably, she has told my wife that she is worried, arrived in the UK as a child in 1959 and has never been back and has no family there. I’ve tried reassuring her that it’s not going to happen. Like many from the Caribbean she worked for over 16 years for the NHS. My wife’s father is trying to get Spanish citizenship (where he now lives) although this may have more to do with Brexit. My wife’s brother was refused a UK passport and has a Jamaican one, as he was born in Germany when his father was serving there in the British Army [Post edited 24 Apr 2018 12:28]

Windrush on 13:59 - Apr 24 with 14205 views | Northernr | It's disgusting, but it's the way this country has been going for several years now and comes as no surprise. Abhorrent, disgusting, outright racist views, attitudes and practices that would have been considered exactly that a decade ago now existing openly and increasingly commonplace under a cover of "telling it like it is", standing up for "British values", or some sort of rebellion against political correctness. Deeply, deeply unpleasant place to live at the moment. | | | |

What I find most surprising about this letter is that its author can actually write at all. | |

That's a spoof surely. 100 years ago? Kent? Isn't it? | | | |

Windrush on 15:19 - Apr 24 with 14002 views | ted_hendrix | The Gurkhss were treated dreadfully and only a few years ago were granted citizenship but as far as I recall the Government still do not recognise their pensionable rights hence that actress getting involved and all credit to her for doing so.

Windrush on 16:06 - Apr 24 with 13905 views | stevec | It is shameful how they've been treated. To lose their livelihood ending up in some sort of detention centre, that stuff takes time, it just defies belief how even one case could go that far without being flagged up. Never been in favour of ID cards in the past, but if we all had to carry one, even if we lost it we'd be traceable in these type of circumstances, this sort of thing would probably be all but eliminated. | | | |
Windrush on 16:57 - Apr 24 with 13831 views | LazyFan | Let us ALL be clear to everyone, these are British People and are therefore British Citizens, quite simply they are British. And we should be looking after them as we should for anyone and everyone who is British at the very least. Becuase if we do and do it like we should, properly, straight away without any messing about. Then this is an example of what makes us the British Great and this country a Great Britain. If we don't then we are no longer Great. It is as simple as that. They are us and we are them, for we are British. EOL zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz [Post edited 24 Apr 2018 17:14]

Windrush on 17:43 - Apr 24 with 13755 views | simmo | That letter is shameful. I hope Farage and his cronies realise their part in this, they mined the seam of unhappiness and disillusion and channeled it towards ‘immigrants’ so they could encourage more votes for their cause. It’s no surprise reports of racial abuse increased so much after the Brexit vote and why more creatures like the one that scrawled that hateful letter have started to feel their opinions are anything other than disgusting. Farage and those like him contributed to this country becoming a less tolerant, kind and hospitable place to exist and they did it all purely to enhance their own political careers. I hope they die screaming. | |

This isn't a case of bureaucratic bungling, it's by design - a hostile environment - and they thought theyd get away with it without everyone making too much fuss. | | | |

They are getting away with it. A few negative news stories and discussions on social media is not going to worry them in the slightest. | |

I agree this wasn’t an error, they achieved exactly what they set out to achieve. | | | |
