75 years since Windrush arrived

Well its 74 years since the Windrush ship arrived in the uk with many people from the Caribbean on.

With the promise of jobs to help rebuild the uk.

These people intergrated into UK ways of life, added their culture to it ( for the better), some served in the forces.

Yet in 2018 the government started deportations of at least 83 people some of were British born.

Since then the government has been ordered to pay compensation to all and repatriate those who wish to return.

Yet the government can't even mention or make an announcement of this speical occasion.

If it had been 75 years for a bank they'd all be there celebrating and saying how wonderful it is

I for one am proud for all those who came to the UK to make a bettter life, add to the UK and make it a better place and in some circumstances doing the jobs some of us couldn't

@helenS Yes he is is there was a time India was part of the British Empire now its the other way round.
I think we all know Europe, the UK and the USA don't like people. They're free market lovers for business, closed border lovers for people. They're into oligarchy and climate catastrophe.
The typical citizens lie about everything. They're without remourse but on the war path.
The gloves are off and the West openly bears its teeth at life itself and all the rest of humanity.

Present government is a puppet government that will bring 5000 ships of immigrants back to UK from the other continents. Don't you worry about those Caribbeans.

@BigGuy2 Not if the ships keep coming
BigGuy2 · 26-30, M
@TheOrionbeltseeker how do you mean
milkymum1 · 36-40, F
@TheOrionbeltseeker 🤣🤣🤣🤣blame people with nothing, you sond like a typical tory bellend, how about stopping nom doms, tax avioders, MPs second homes free bars and free restaurants, make the Government accountable for the billions wasted during Covid all the wasted PPE fake companies the billions written off by the Government

Also if you voted for Brexit then you part of this shit show of the boats coming

I'm an immigrant and to me if your from a country that's at war your welcome but the problem is economic migrants but then what did you really expect when countries are struggling and you have successive PMs standing there saying how good the UK doing etc etc people are bound to come

They didn’t come to rebuild Britain, it’s propaganda, check the history
milkymum1 · 36-40, F
@ididntknow they helped rebuild the UK
ididntknow · 51-55, M
Why did they need to help build Britain, you do know that’s a made up story right

Very interesting conversation.
Yet in 2018 the government started deportations of at least 83 people some of were British born.

That was appaling.

The World is turned on it's head, they came over to help rebuild the UK, but are or where being deported, but Economic Migrants are allowed to stay
BigGuy2 · 26-30, M
@milkymum1 same here, if they're EM's don't even let them in, so we don't need to boot them out then
milkymum1 · 36-40, F
@BigGuy2 exactly sadly weve got no were to send anyone now as the uk government only has an agreement with Albania
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@milkymum1 Sadly, in present era, all are just the economic migrants.
