Windrush report condemns Home Office 'ignorance and thoughtlessness'
The Home Office demonstrated “institutional ignorance and thoughtlessness towards the issue of race” during the Windrush scandal and some ministers still “do not accept the full extent of the injustice”, an independent inquiry has found.
In a scathing report on the way British citizens were wrongly deported, dismissed from their jobs and deprived of services such as NHS care, the department is blamed for operating a “culture of disbelief and carelessness”. The failings are “consistent with some elements of the definition of institutional racism”, the long-awaited investigation concludes.
A long awaited report published today lays bare the racism at the heart of the Conservative Party. I found this line very illuminating.
“I think it is unfortunate that most of the policymakers were white and most of the people involved were black,”
This seems to be a universal theme of conservatism wherever you are in the world. Shocking stuff.
