People need to know & understand the difference between Nationality, citizenship & Heritage, We need to start standing strong in our heritage as this contributes to the lack of unity. I Chinese individual is ALWAYS a Chinese despite where they are born or reside, so the ones that are here will only accept to be seen as British Chinese (I Chinese living as a Citizen in Britain) if a Chinese person was described as English it wouldn’t make sense to 99% of people from any race however we like to separate ourselves by adopting the titles of wherever we are born to describe who or what we are instead of going by our cultural heritage or linage.

Empire Windrush was the name of the ship - HMT Empire Windrush arrived at the Port of Tilbury on 21 June 1948 and its passengers disembarked a day later. The ship carried 492 Caribbean migrants, many of them veterans of the Second World War. The ship and its passengers have a symbolic status as the start of the Windrush Generation. Windrush Generation denotes the people who emigrated from the Caribbean to Britain between the arrival of the HMT Empire Windrush on 21 June 1948 and the Immigration Act 1971, including the passengers on the first ship.

So many happy memories of Brixton from my child hold I feel very emotional to see the review really enjoyed your review

I was hoping they'd go to Refils. I'm constantly considering the drive up from Brighton for some of their food! They've always got food left when its late and their peanut and Guinness punches are amazing too. I've heard their porridge is really good but you have to get there early apparently!

Yes, I know the history. The point is we are talking about the 'Windrush' generation, who first came to the UK from Jamaica in the late 1940s. The UK tried to ILLEGALLY send them back to Jamaica even though they had rights of abode due to being BRITISH (they held British passports after all). Jamaica wasn't independent from the UK until 6th August 1962 - therefore all that came to the UK before that date (after being invited by the UK government to help rebuild the country after World War 2) were British. To try and force them back to Jamaica, the UK government & press tried to label them as illegal immigrants, which is incorrect.

Memories. Looking through the eyes of time from 1965. The majority of C'bbean immigrant residents were Jamaicans. Of course other islanders such as Bajans, Guyanese, Trinis, Lucians, Vincys...and from the African continent. I've got mostly great memories growing up.
