"Any country", Keith? I am countries who don't deserve that insult. Countries where the authorities in cases like this would realise that they needed to supply evidence of illegal status before imprisoning people who claimed to be here legally, but who couldn’t produce required evidence.

Such as in the case of people such as Hubert Howard, who had a passport from Jamaica with an official signature on a stamp indicating he had arrived at the age of three 58 years ago, and who supplied evidence of school attendance, but who lost his job and his home because the Home Office refused to accept those as valid evidence.

Stop making excuses for stuff that not even Theresa May would now excuse, Keith. Do you really believe "That would happen to anyone in any country". There are some countries where I can imagine that happening, true enough. I hope there aren't many. One is more than enough.
