ANYONE expecting Sajid Javid to behave less inhumanely than his immediate predecessors towards immigrants, refugees or even British citizens unable to lay their hands on half-century-old documents shouldn’t hold their breath.

Put aside hopes that his own migrant background, Pakistani bus driver father and seven family members living in two rooms over a shop will encourage empathy from the new Home Secretary.

Whatever his origins, he is a hard-boiled Tory banker who bought into the Thatcherite philosophy that poor people deserve what they get — nothing.
