What the! Bloody unbelievable yet, I know nothing should surprise me when it comes to criminalising our youths.

Leigh Day's Windrush Justice Project took its Stay Put Van (as opposed to the Home Office's Go Home Van) to the Home Office today to highlight the ongoing injustices reported in today's HAC report. Three claimants told us why they came. #StayPut #WindrushScandal

Some MPs are briefing newspapers that they'd stand down if they couldn't have second jobs as they couldn't possibly live on £82,000 per year.
Good riddance I say. How out of touch are these people?
MPs are in the top 5% of earners. That's plenty enough. Ban second jobs for MPs.

The @ukhomeoffice & @pritipatel have consistently claimed that they have paid out 31 million in compensation to #Windrushvictims yet there has been no evidence to support their claims .Today we ask the @CommonsHomeAffs & @CommonsECC to request the breakdown of these figures.

Did you know Altheia Jones-Lecointe was at the forefront of the black power movement in the UK?
She was one of the Mangrove Nine who took on and defeated the police in a landmark trial.
