Agreed, but that jumped out at me - we need full info, not just partial for sympathy.

Re: Windrush generation
The Windrush generation that came over here in the 1940s do share some of the blame, though because they should have registered themselves as they were told, but didn't.
It's their children who came with them I feel particularly sorry for.

Re: Windrush generation
A pretty damning indictment of the Home Office in a report done by the National Audit Office.

Re: Windrush generation
Its a improvement to the terrible way some of them were treated but for some its far too late now.

Re: Windrush generation
The figure has now been revised upwards by Javid to 310 million pounds.
It is expected that each person will get up to £10,000, which has been critiscised as not being enough because some people lost their jobs over this.

Hot on the heels of the Government admitting that they broke data protection rules, the BBC 1 O'Clock news is reporting that Sajid Javid has announced that there will now be no limit on the amount of compensation available.
