Windrush Blows Away Amber Rudd.. First Casualty of Scandal..

In a dramatic new development in the Windrush Scandal, Amber Rudd, United Kingdom’s Home Secretary has resigned. Details are not available at press time but this is a dramatic new development. You will recall under pressure Rudd made some serious concessions last week as the Windrush scandal rocked the British government.

Rudd claimed she “misled parliament” Good for you!

Rudd Under Pressure

Lammy and and Abbott verbally bombarded Rudd and seemed to have irreparably damaged her rudder.  In what appears to be an obviously embarrassed Rudd … made sweeping concessions to those Windrushers who were being thrown into detention centres, being readied for deportation. She had to go. Rudd resigned by telephone. Really, madam Rudd.

PM Holness

British PM prime minister Theresa May met with PM Holness and had already apologized almost tearfully for the Windrush Scandal… it was over to Amber Rudd to put the icing on the cake.  She did, made sweeping concessions including fee waivers for Windrushers … now she is forced out or booted.

Tears

We shed no tears for Amber Rudd.  You were obviously embarrassed for threatening and kicking out our citizens treating them as if second-class citizens. Many people’s lives have been ruined under May/Rudd stewardship.  We should shed no tears for you Amber Rudd … you have been a big disappointment and a betrayer to black people.

Unconditional Citizenship

I hope you’re not being used as a scapegoat trying to shift or divert attention from the Scandal that saw persons who after the wars were invited to Britain to build a ravished Britain by German bombs and German artillery. These heroes and heroines should be granted unconditional citizenship. We will not be backing down on that demand …. we are not second-class citizens in Britain, we went there to build a country after it was ravished after the wars, that is world war one and two, so we should be treated like first class citizens and granted unconditional citizenship … that’s the only proper thing to do.

Commentary

God is not asleep. That is why Windrush has blown away Amber Rudd. Happy riddance madam. We are delighted to see your back. We will shed no tears.
