In this episode of 20Something Podcast Naomi is joined by Jamie and Dean to discuss Theresa May's policy to deport non-EU migrants earning less than £35K. Is this policy an attempt to regulate the UK's diverse population or is there a genuine need to deport those who contribute less? We also debate on the controversial topic of why the Jewish Holocaust is commemorated more than the African Holocaust. Our discourse seeks to discover how Britain could endeavour to right the wrongs carried out during the transatlantic slave trade. iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/20-something/id725309306?mt=2 Petition: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/118060 Dr Joy de Gruy Leary https://youtu.be/XRQ-Ci6LwVw Twitter: @jrnufc @naesimon @20Somethingpodc
