Immigration Law Affecting Commonwealth Citizens Who Entered the United Kingdom Before 1973
© 2018 Bruce Mennell (04/05/18) Immigration Law Affecting Commonwealth Citizens who entered the United Kingdom before 1973 Summary This article outlines the immigration law and practices of the United Kingdom applying to Commonwealth citizens who came to the UK before 1973, primarily those who had no ancestral links with the British Isles. It attempts to identify which Commonwealth citizens automatically acquired indefinite leave to enter or remain under the Immigration Act 1971, and what evidence may be available today. This article was inspired by the problems faced by many Commonwealth citizens who arrived in the UK in the 1950s and 1960s, who have not acquired British citizenship and who are now experiencing difficulty demonstrating that they have a right to remain in the United Kingdom under the current law of the “Hostile Environment”. In the ongoing media coverage, they are often described as the “Windrush Generation”, loosely suggesting those who came from the West Indies in about 1949. However, their position is fairly similar to that of other immigrants of the same era from other British territories and newly independent Commonwealth countries, which this article also tries to cover. Various conclusions arise. Home Office record keeping was always limited. The pre 1973 law and practice is more complex than generally realised. The status of pre-1973 migrants in the current law is sometimes ambiguous or unprovable. The transitional provisions of the Immigration Act 1971 did not intersect cleanly with the earlier law leaving uncertainty and gaps. An attempt had been made to identify categories of Commonwealth citizens who entered the UK before 1973 and acquired an automatic right to reside in the UK on 1 January 1973. -

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 F 7377 POLITI 58^S8i ABSTRACT The British left has confronted a dilemma in forming its attitude towards Israel in the postwar period. The establishment of the Jewish state seemed to force people on the left to choose between competing nationalisms - Israeli, Arab and later, Palestinian. Over time, a number of key developments sharpened the dilemma. My central focus is the evolution of thinking about Israel and the Middle East in the British Labour Party. I examine four critical periods: the creation of Israel in 1948; the Suez war in 1956; the Arab-Israeli war of 1967 and the 1980s, covering mainly the Israeli invasion of Lebanon but also the intifada. In each case, entrenched attitudes were called into question and longer-term shifts were triggered in the aftermath. -
(Post)Colonial Women and the British Immigration System
EXAMINERS’ COPIES A Logic of Subordination: (Post)colonial Women and the British Immigration System DISSERTATION Paper submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science by Coursework in Migration Studies at the University of Oxford 2019–2020 by 1042115 Word Count: 15,042 Oxford Department of International Development and School of Anthropology and Museum Ethnography University of Oxford A Logic of Subordination: (Post)colonial Women and the British Immigration System Image credit: see references cited. Clockwise from top left corner: newspaper article on a Kenyan Asian woman seeking to migrate to Britain in 1970; an immigration raid van in Southall, London, the Empire Windrush in 1948; Kenyan Asians disembarking a plane in London in 1968; a poster in solidarity with the Stansted 15, who blocked a deportation flight in London in 2017; a protest in response to the 2018 Windrush scandal; a protest by London’s Southall Black Sisters; a 1979 newspaper article on the practice of virginity testing at Heathrow airport. 2 Abstract The empirical realities of many migrant women in Britain often indicate vulnerability to various harms. These lived experiences reflect the institutionalised insecurity produced by the confluence of immigration law and varied social processes, and can therefore be understood as illustrative of migrants’ ‘precarity’ in Britain. Many migrants in Britain are also (post)colonial peoples, who carry histories of colonial subjugation. Recent migration scholarship has therefore illustrated a turn towards explaining immigration controls as a tool for maintaining Britain’s colonial ethic. According to this narrative, immigration law prevents (post)colonial peoples’ access to the advantage concentrated in Britain, produced through the same processes that have enabled their subjugation. -

God and Mrs Thatcher: Religion and Politics in 1980s Britain Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2010 Liza Filby University of Warwick University ID Number: 0558769 1 I hereby declare that the work presented in this thesis is entirely my own. ……………………………………………… Date………… 2 Abstract The core theme of this thesis explores the evolving position of religion in the British public realm in the 1980s. Recent scholarship on modern religious history has sought to relocate Britain‟s „secularization moment‟ from the industrialization of the nineteenth century to the social and cultural upheavals of the 1960s. My thesis seeks to add to this debate by examining the way in which the established Church and Christian doctrine continued to play a central role in the politics of the 1980s. More specifically it analyses the conflict between the Conservative party and the once labelled „Tory party at Prayer‟, the Church of England. Both Church and state during this period were at loggerheads, projecting contrasting visions of the Christian underpinnings of the nation‟s political values. The first part of this thesis addresses the established Church. -
Who Needs Leave to Remain? the Uncertain Legal Consequences of Missing the EU Settlement Scheme Deadline
Who needs leave to remain? The uncertain legal consequences of missing the EU settlement scheme deadline Bernard Ryan, Professor of Law, University of Leicester 22 June 2021 Introduction This note addresses the implications of an individual’s missing the 30 June 2021 deadline for applications to register under the EU settlement scheme. Article 18(3) of the EU-UK Withdrawal Agreement appears to protect individuals’ rights from the time that they make a late application.1 The focus here is on the status in United Kingdom law of persons eligible to apply under the settlement scheme, who fail to apply on time, and who stay in the United Kingdom. It makes no distinction between three scenarios where a person may be unregistered: (i) prior to a late application and successful registration; (ii) where a late application is made which is unsuccessful; and (iii) where no application is made. The analysis here of the status of those who are unregistered takes a historical starting-point. It shows that, from 1982, those exercising free movement rights in the United Kingdom were exempt from a requirement to obtain leave to enter.2 That led to an interpretation - set out in particular by Lord Hoffman in the House of Lords in Wolke in 1997 – that those who ceased to be eligible for free movement rights were lawfully present in the United Kingdom if they stayed on. Subsequently, a different view emerged, that persons who cease to be exempt under the Immigration Act 1971 – including EEA+ nationals who qualified for free movement rights - “require leave”.3 This different interpretation is of broad significance, as many legislative provisions came to use versions of that formulation. -
EU Londoners Hub
EU Londoners Hub The Mayor, Sadiq Khan, has been clear that EU citizens living in London belong and are welcome in our great city. To make sure EU citizens and their families have all the information they need about living in London after Brexit we have created this hub. We have launched a few resource sections to give you clear and impartial information and, if required, guide you to further support and advice. This page will continue to be updated. Sign me up for EU Londoner updates Brexit: what this means for EU Londoners The UK voted to leave the European Union in June 2016. Below we have provided answers to some of the questions you may have about this decision and how Brexit impacts you. What is Brexit? Brexit is the popular term for the process of the UK leaving the EU, as a result of the referendum held on 23 June 2016. In March 2017, Prime Minister Theresa May gave official notice to the EU of the UK’s intention to leave the EU - referred to as the Article 50 notice. This was the start of a two- year negotiation process to agree the terms under which the UK would leave, and what its future relationship with the EU would be. The UK has been a member of the EU since 1973. This means that many structures, arrangements and agreements in place as part of the UK’s membership of the EU become redundant when the UK leaves the EU. New structures, arrangement and agreements need to replace these, which will come under UK law, not EU law. -

ENGLAND’S ANSWER: IDENTITY AND LEGITIMATION IN BRITISH FOREIGN POLICY By STUART STROME A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2014 1 © 2014 Stuart Strome 2 To my grandfather 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my mom, dad, grandparents, and entire family for supporting me through this taxing process. Thank you for being voices of encouragement through can sometimes be a discouraging undertaking. Thank you to the rest of my family for being there when I needed you most. I truly love you all! I would like to thank my professors and colleagues, who provided guidance, direction and invaluable advice during the writing process. They say you don’t get to choose your family yourself, although whoever up there chose it did a wonderful job. I’d like to thank all my colleagues and mentors who provided intellectual inspiration and encouragement. Most specifically, I’d like to thank my dissertation committee, Dan O’Neill, Ido Oren, Aida Hozic, Matthew Jacobs, and above all, my committee chair, Leann Brown. Dr. Brown was incredibly supportive throughout the process, kept me grounded and on track, and provided a shoulder to cry on when needed (which was often!) I’ve never heard of a committee chair that would regularly answer phone calls to field questions, or sometimes just to act as a sounding post with whom to flesh out ideas. You are an inspiration, and I am lucky to have you as a mentor and friend. -

The Transcription Centre
The Transcription Centre: An Inventory of Its Records at the Harry Ransom Center Descriptive Summary Creator: The Transcription Centre, circa 1962-1977 Title: The Transcription Centre Records Dates: 1931-1986 (bulk 1960-1977) Extent: 25 boxes (10.50 linear feet) Abstract: The records of the Transcription Centre comprise scripts and manuscripts, correspondence, legal documents, business records, ephemera, photographs, and clippings spanning the years 1931 to 1986. Languages: English, Hausa, Swahili, German, French, and Italian . Access: Open for research Administrative Information Acquisition: Purchase, 1990 (R12142) Processed by: Bob Taylor, 2008 Repository: The University of Texas at Austin, Harry Ransom Center The Transcription Centre, circa 1962-1977 Organizational History The Transcription Centre began its brief but significant life in February 1962 under the direction of Dennis Duerden (1927-2006), producing and distributing radio programs for and about Africa. Duerden was a graduate of Queen’s College, Oxford and had served as principal of the Government Teachers’ College at Keffi, Nigeria and later as producer of the Hausa Service of the BBC. As an artist and educator with experience in West Africa, as well as a perceptive critic of African art he was a natural in his new post. The Transcription Centre was created with funding provided initially by the Congress for Cultural Freedom (CCF) to foster non-totalitarian cultural values in sub-Saharan Africa in implicit opposition to Soviet-encouraged committed political attitudes among African writers and artists. Much of the CCF’s funding and goals were subsequently revealed to have come from the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. The stress between the CCF’s presumed wish to receive value for their investment in the Transcription Centre and Duerden’s likely belief that politically-based programming would alienate the very audience it sought permeated his activities throughout his years with the radio service. -
