Rupert Everett, who had lived in the UK for 50 years, died in 2019 without an apology for Home Office’s repeated errors

The latest critical official report on the department’s handling of the Windrush scandal detailed how former HGV driver Rupert Everett died in 2019, aged 74, without having received an apology or compensation from the government.
