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.

We must never forget their huge contribution or the racism they suffered at the hands of successive governments #WindrushDay

Today is #WindrushDay, marking the arrival of African-Caribbean migrants to the UK on the HMT Empire Windrush from 1948 onwards.
