UK still uncertain about Windrush-era deportations theguardian.com

The government is still not certain whether any Windrush-era citizens in the UK have been wrongly deported, a senior minister has said, reiterating that their treatment “had gone badly wrong”.

David Lidington, the Cabinet Office minister, said staff from the Home Office were working to check whether any affected people, who predominantly arrived in the UK as children from the Caribbean, had been removed.

“I talked to the home secretary about this last night, and the position is that we have no information. We do not know of any cases where somebody who has been deported is in this category,” Lidington told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme on Tuesday.
