That business about adopting West Indian accents to fit in wasn't addressed to "immigrants". It was a government recommendation to British people, with British accents, but with West Indian roots, who were exiled from this country to the West Indies illegally under May's "hostile environment". Rather than calling them immigrants it would be fairer to refer to them as transportees.
