The “hostile environment” created to reduce net migration allowed the government to bully migrants out of the country. Legal Subjects were denied work, benefits, and healthcare. Without The Guardian’s tenacious journalism this shameful policy would have succeeded.
May 2012, the “hostile environment” policy to reduce net migration from 250,000 to 10,000 was introduced. Many legal subjects were harassed and detained as the government tried to bully them out of the country. Guardian journalist Amelia Gentleman brought the shameful policy to the attention of the nation and Mark Grey brings the story to the stage as British subjects were refused access to work, benefits, and healthcare in an attempt to drive them out. If not for tenacious journalism they would have succeeded.
