As we celebrate Windrush 75 this week, it is important to remember the Windrush Scandal.
Since then, many have not been compensated, and sadly, some have passed away without any justice.

It makes me angry the trauma continues for #WindrushScandal victims.
It's as if they're waiting for people to die so they don't have to pay up.
On Good Morning Britain I called for the compensation scheme to be taken from the Home Office & given to an independent organisation with compassion.
Prince William, Prince of Wales
said: “We know without question that the Windrush generation have made our culture richer, our services stronger, and our fellow countrymen safer.”

Chris Armitage No Context Brits It's a lie!
My father was invited here to work on the railway by the government
We travelled on British passports
We flew BOC into Stansted
Yet we were met with hate, racism & general hostility
The wicked #WindrushScandal is still ongoing
Many died, deported or lost everything
“Therefore, alongside celebrating the diverse fabric of our families, our communities and our society as a whole – something the Windrush generation has contributed so much to 🚢🇻🇨🇯🇲🇧🇸 #WindrushDay #WindrushScandal
