The Windrush was not 'called' by Britain. When the Attlee government realised it was bringing migrants looking for jobs they were alarmed and hoped it would turn round. The numbers of migrants also mean that they played only a minor role in rebuilding Britain. https://theconversation.com/unravelling-the-windrush-myth-the-confidential-government-communications-that-reveal-authorities-did-not-want-caribbean-migrants-to-come-to-britain-206225
