The Windrush Scandal and Ministerial Responsibility
17th April 2018
What might the political furore over the Windrush Generation tell us about the conventions of Ministerial Responsibility. David Lammy doesn't hold back here.
It is an absolute disgrace that the Home Office has destroyed these documents and then forced Windrush-generation migrants to try and prove their status, threatening them with deportation and stripping them of their rights. Shame on you all. #Windrush https://t.co/ccIFryoLXB

My parents came here as citizens, now the #windrush generation are suffering inhumane treatment at the hands of the Home Office.
