Why must she leave? Because Britian's racists won the Brexit referendum and that's what many of them voted for.

No. Your claim is absolutely wrong (as a matter of fact about attitudes), incredibly wrong-headed and unhelpful (if you oppose this, why would you claim a majority support it, with no evidence for your claim). Ask
@robfordmancs who runs BSA immigration attitudes module. -
Yes, I find this attitude destructively misguided. Most Brexit voters not racist. Overwhelming majority of Brits, regardless of EU Ref vote, support full rights for migrants who have been here 5 plus years, let alone 45 plus years. There is no public support for this fiasco.
-
Agreed. On a separate question, how come so many who have been here so long, who are British, don't have basic papers in place? I mean, how has that been possible? Or am I being naive about government efficiency here...
-
I'm going to write explainer on this, as I think its poorly understood. Brief version is: they didn't need any papers until 1971 as had citizenship rights (Commonwealth cits). Papers required for imms after that, and all those who came before were given Indefinite Leave to Remain
-
In which case... pursuing them seems like punishing for not having things you said they didn't need. Have I got that right?
-
Yes, exactly. The government is retrospectively revoking rights it granted (but failed to record properly) and then putting a massive burden of proof on the people whose rights it has unilaterally stripped away. People who have been here for decades and are mostly BME.
-
And it's BME people that many Leave voters want to leave. Let's stop pretending otherwise! There's a VERY strong current of racism in this country.

Surely common sense should prevail here and she stays,especially if the government are at fault for not keeping appropriate records.
-
Unfortunately the home office/immigration departments have no common sense.

True no brains infact

Having to deal with them on a daily basis myself for the last 7 month... I can confirm this statement to be true lol

A complete betrayal by the government, which started when Theresa May was Home Secretary
#windrushamnesty#theresamay#notinmynametheresamay -
Exactly. This was a Theresa May initiative as home sectretary. She is not reversing that decision now. I’m sure her feeling has not change.

It seems that these people who are living “legally” paying taxes and being good citizens are an easy target - how many illegal immigrants have they lost track of again?
-
Seems like the law abiding long term residents are an easier target than the ones who are coming from Calais on a daily basis! Leave them alone and put government's effort into protecting our borders from terrorism!

Then there’s those immigrants who got free education, free healthcare, free houses that get free repairs & benefits who go back to their roots & live in luxury houses they’ve got built with uk taxpayers money to live better than Brits do today in their own country
-
Nonsense you shouldn't believe the daily mail.
-
Don’t need the daily mail. Personally know these ppl
-
So you implied that 1000’s are doing this and you personally know all of them or in fact in know one person, who might have done that or indeed you listened to a rumour down the pub.
-
Ha ha ha. He does know all of them as they're all in his mind!! What that has to do with British citizens who came here prior to the break up of the "Empire" I do not know.
-
The Windrush children are not British citizens. They never naturalised.
-
They were overseas British citizens as they were from British colonies when they arrived in the UK. Their status then changed when those countries obtained independence.
-
Haha okay. So she was a British overseas citizen in the 1960s - 20 years before “British overseas citizen” was brought in as a type of British citizenship?
