Windrush generation: Britain’s history, erased in hostility
It is a national scandal, and rightly so: news of the detention and expulsion of “Windrush-era” residents, who settled in the UK over half a century ago, exploded across the country, causing more and more public figures to openly criticise a cruel immigration policy. As the government scrambles (far too late) to minimise the fallout, we must keep in mind that the Windrush case is not an incidental or singular administrative blip. Rather, the decisions that led to such horrific treatment of long-time residents reflect a deeper institutional hostility towards migrants, and is part and parcel of how Britain, as a nation, currently relates to its past, its future and its people.
