Book Description

The subject of immigration in Britain has become a dark minefield especially for asylum-seekers and irregular migrants. This is as a result of arbitrary changes in legislation and probably the politics of Brexit. Unsettled migrants, it seems, are completely at the mercy of the Home Office decision-makers - because the Home Office simply change the immigration rules when it does not like the answers the courts are giving. The current bureaucracy is hostile, cynical and hardened to every sob story under the sun. Arbitrary policies tear apart families and ruin lives. The treadmill of unfair bureaucratic decisions is a direct result of a relentless drive towards unrealistic migration caps that don't take real lives into account. Indeed, there are ever so many ways in which these faceless bureaucrats ride roughshod over the rights and legitimate expectation of migrants. It is hoped that this essay will do something to lessen the heavily tilted playing field on which migrants and their representatives must contend.
