Comments by "Mat Broomfield" (@matbroomfield) on "Windrush survivor: Will we get government compensation before we die? - BBC News" video.
Deliberately slow walking it in the hopes that they will die before getting paid.

Chief Sunna of the Saxons You're wrong. They were members of British colonies already. You know, countries where Britain went and took over THEIR countries. Then Britain encouraged them to move to the mainland by virtue of the 1948 British Nationality Act, which many of them did. If you don't know what you're talking about, I suggest you stop talking. Frankly, I'd trade you for them in a heartbeat.

@jjyoutube82 So in your view, politicians should consult the public on every single decision that could change the nature of British society? Britain was DESPERATELY short of workers and half a million Carribbean people agreed to come here FROM THE COUNTRIES BRITAIN HAD COLONISED. Britain has ZERO moral high ground, here.

@jjyoutube82 It was nothing to do with Australia. Britain stopped deporting convicts to Australia in 1868! Britain was short of workers because it had lost a huge number of people in two world wars. We were LUCKY to have invited immigrants who helped rebuild our shattered nation.

@jjyoutube82 They invited them here. Why should they know tell them to go to hell?

@pandasrules7536 It was the British government's fault that these people did not have the correct papers as they were never issued. You can't say to everyone "Come, we won't bother with arrival papers" then get shitty with them 70 years later for not having arrival papers! You can't even attack them for not knowing that they were supposed to apply for papers 70 years later. This was a crisis whipped up out of nothing, that brought needless stress and oppression to people who had done nothing wrong.

House Rules You don't need a passport if you're aged between 70 and 110 and got off the Windrush boat in 1948. I don't think black face would quite do it.

@jjyoutube82 Britain was not invaded - it was helped by people who it needed and invited. Were you asked whether you wanted US servicemen on British soil, or European industry? No, because that's what you elect politicians to do.
