This is Part 2 of two episodes on the British Government's immigration policy called the "Hostile Environment Policy " that targeted UK's Black immigrant population and forced the deportation of thousands of Caribbean and African immigrants.

In our last episode, British lawyer and University Law Lecturer, Colin Bobb-Semple explained what is now known as the Windrush Scandal, what caused it, and how UK’s Caribbean population from the Windrush Generation became victims of a "Hostile Environment Policy" even though they were legal citizens of the UK. 

In this episode. we continue our conversation with Colin Bobb-Semple who discusses the devastating impact of the immigration policy on the lives of generations of British citizens from the Caribbean and Africa and explains why the UK's  Hostile Environment Policy remains a threat to Black Britons even as government leaders acknowledge that they were wrong and the policy was bad.
