On Windrush Day, we pay tribute to the people who came from every corner of the Commonwealth to help rebuild Britain after the Second World War. I spoke in a backbench business debate to mark the occasion, celebrating the Windrush generation’s impact on Clapham and Brixton Hill, highlighting the injustices they faced, and pushing for justice. The Windrush Generation embodied the very best of British values. Sadly, they were not always treated with the respect that they deserved.

This year, I reiterated my calls for a fairer and faster compensation scheme. Too many people have died without seeing a penny of justice. The early signs from this government have been encouraging but there is still work to be done.
