Let’s just hope those who have been hit by this diabolical mess are suitably compensated. And I pray the person refused cancer treatment can still be compensated.

I'm sure you'd over react if you lost your job through no fault of your own, then lost your home through no fault of your own and then got deported illegally. Nice to know empathy is alive and well in the UK ..... not !!!!
Again, I respectfully disagree. The policy to stop some from using Bank of United Kingdom, when they have no right to do so, is anything but ill thought out, in my opinion.
I say again: People jumping on an Air India flight once a year to pop over and take all they can grab from this country is wholly wrong.
The implementation of that policy has clearly been ill thought out however.

Yes a mistake,not because of some intended far-right ideology.
Glad you have finally come around.

In this day and age how hard is it to keep a record of who came to the UK and who left?
The politicians and civil servants need to sort the administration of this country out because across the board - from Grenfell Tower to Windrush - there is a lack of attention to detail, accountability and responsibility. It's a f*cking shambles and Theresa May as Home Secretary for 6 years and now useless PM embodies this ineptitude.

Useful advice if you're being deported illegally, hardly a mistake if the Home Office has gone to such lengths as to prepare such advice.

As we are a multi cultural society, it is what makes our country unique with a vibrant assemblage of people.
The Notting Hill carnival would have never existed, as it was born from the 1958 riots, that happened in London.

The Ghurkas, who fought alongside the British Army, were similarly given a bum deal by the British government, over their pensions.

Very much so having represented a number of humanitarian charities/NGO organisations on different projects over a sixteen year period. I've worked in the Third Sector nearly twenty years- still do, although not for a humanitarian group at this time.
If you cannot see that the depiction of a Mexican as a cartoon character with flies around their head- alongside a rather smart representation of Donald Trump, and followed by your own endorsement of the wording in respect of this situation is racist then, well, I cannot help you see it.
There are a number of folk on NSC who hold views I find difficult when it comes to race and immigration. However, I try to engage rather than attack. Simply because I just think they have the wrong view. That's how a board should work.
You, in my opinion (I get that) have crossed a very liberally distant line.
As regards coming back crying, the only thing that moved me close to tears was reading of the plights of some of these folk.
Sadly, unless you can show me my error, I feel it rather lost on you.
Note: I have not suggested that anyone else on this thread has suggested or posted anything racist or unsympathetic. I don't agree with that thought which was suggested by interpretation of one entry.

A single and direct register of who resides in the U.K. is what’s needed. And no, it isn’t difficult as other nations do it.

I guess if you had actually read the opening lines you would have noticed it wasn’t The Home Office that had prepared the advice.
“This guide has been put together through the collaboration of several dedicated Jamaican charities and non-governmental organisations with the support of the British High Commission in Kingston and the Ministry of National Security”

From Foreign & Commonwealth Office developed by the Rehabilitation and Reintegration Programme and put together by various charities etc (as above).
Not The Home Office
It would save taxpayers a fortune. The Manpower costs to look up a computer record which takes 2 minutes, as opposed to writing to people interviewing them, checking authenticity of documents then dealing with any appeals to rulings and so on.
It is called a common sense approach.

Like a census every ten years?
You know perfectly well I was talking about the issue, the situation rather than the original migration.
Regardless it doesn't detract from the fact he's making a mountain out of a mole hill over language rather than the utterly immoral actions of the Home Office, who along with HMRC and the DWP ( Dicks, W@nk3rs and Pricks ) show how completely incompetent the government and it's structures really are.

10/10 ....but I'm not dancing to it
The most unequal democratic country on the planet? America would genuinely be ****ed without Mexicans doing the jobs the white immigrants won't do.
