This is a drop in the ocean & just spin until we know full numbers deported, detained & those hounded out of their home country by the home office. Apology is crocodile tears & an insult to people still not given hardship fund, left jobless, homeless & unable to afford food.
Home Office covering up scale of the scandal by consistently refusing to answer my questions, including those to the PM back in April. This will all be viewed as just spin until every single person affected gets an apology and compensation.
According to @sajidjavid 6,507 people contacted the #Windrush taskforce, were considered possible #Windrush and referred for a call back to progress their case. 2,272 people have now been given documentation confirming their status.
Back in April, Amber Rudd claimed nobody had been wrongfully deported. Now the Home Office have identified at least 146 other cases of people who were detained or deported. #Windrush
Home Office shows cases as either being dealt with within 2 weeks or outside of that time-frame. No details about just how long some of these cases are taking. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
