UK agrees to fly home wrongly deported Windrush generation man from Jamaica

Exclusive: Winston Knight’s deportation order revoked by Home Office after protracted legal action

The Home Office has agreed to fly home a member of the Windrush generation who lived in the UK for 47 years before being wrongly deported and forced to live on the streets of Jamaica in horrific conditions for more than a decade.

In a highly unusual move and after protracted legal action, Home Office officials have accepted that Winston Knight, 64, is a member of the Windrush generation and have agreed to revoke his deportation order.
