@jmac Must admit I wasn't super familiar with this one before the Paddington film, but "London Is the Place for Me": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63YjPa1-McY This is emblematic of a really important transitional time in the UK, the post-war #windrush migration from the (ex-)colonies to devastated English cities. (Edited: here's the original news report with Lord Kitchener singing it as he steps off the Windrush: https://youtu.be/QDH4IBeZF-M?t=47)

"The Home Office has refused to pay compensation for more than half the claims made by victims of the #Windrush scandal, new analysis by the UK’s public spending watchdog has shown. The scheme was set up in 2019 to compensate mainly Black Britons whose lives were upended by being wrongly classed as illegal migrants by the Home Office."

I remember the the withering look Lenny Henty gave the then PM Theresa May over that Grenfell and Windrush business.
She shrank to the size of an egg

The police investigating the likely spy #mandelson say it could take some time. Well, that is about normal. Anything that could embarrass the #ukgovernment always takes around thirty to fifty years.
E.g Post Office scandal, #Hillsborough, Cladding, #Windrush
If #starmer wants it done, it takes a few weeks, even days.
It is NOT good enough.
