It goes to show how toxic being recklessly "tough" on illegal immigration can be - oops accidentally deported a bunch of legal immigrants who had been here their entire lives. You need to be careful about this stuff.

It's a feature, not a bug. Like take the US, historically we definitely don't check to see if Mexicans are legally here/native-born before deporting them. Or if they're even Mexican before dropping them off in Mexico.


Exactly, though it's worth noting that this didn't come in until May became Home Sec in 2010.

Incidentally the new Home Sec is Sajid Javid. He's the son of a Windrush migrant, and has been very outspoken on this issue so hopefully that's the end of that. He's also a remainer so keeps the brexit balance in the cabinet which is good.
