While much of the heat about the Windrush scandal is aimed at Home Secretary Amber Rudd, The Pledge panellist Greg Dyke says it is the Prime Minister who should be taking the blame. He says:

What the scandalous Windrush saga has demonstrated is that the Home Office simply isn't fit to be left in charge of who comes in and out of this country.

Anyone who has dealt with the Home Office on immigration issues knows what a slow, bureaucratic, hostile culture exists within the department.

Just go and talk with anyone who wants to get married to - and I'll say the word slowly - a foreigner, and you'll discover just how hostile The Home Office is.

And why do almost 50% of those people who appeal against the Home Office's decision to deport them win their case?

Now all that's before Brexit, so God only knows what it will be like afterwards.

There are whole industries which rely on European workers - industries like transport, health, hospitality and agriculture to name but four - which could be left in total crisis as the Home Office dithers over who can come in and who can't, even on short term licences.

Theresa May will try to pretend this has nothing to do with her but she shouldn't be allowed to get away with that.

In her eight years in charge of the Home Office she created a hostile culture which allowed, even encouraged, her officials to behave appallingly as the Windrush case has shown.

Shame on you Mrs May, you can't dodge this bullet.
