It's wonderful to see @ShaileshVara MP supporting recommendations made to the Minister for Refugees at PMQs today. So many lessons to learn from the journey of Ugandan Asians in 1972 as Britain opens its doors to Ukrainian families fleeing war today.

"I walked this path because I had to
I began a journey that I was forced to
Enemies shunned us
Doors closed behind us
Frozen, we gazed at the horizon sky"
Written & narrated by @BabitaTV to mark the 50th anniversary of the 1972 Ugandan Asian expulsion
