Happy Windrush Day.

Here's the sort of thing that gets sent to my employer every time I speak out on an issue involving immigration, migration, deportation, Windrush, race, culture...

I actually receive far worst.

Mum’s 20th birthday gift was a one-way ✈️ from BGI > LGW. What was meant to be a 5 yr stint in the NHS, turned into 40. 4 of her siblings followed suit, as did countless other aunts, uncles, & cousins. Thank you . I humbly stand on your shoulders. 🙏🏾
