Today's Highlighted Video Story: Imagine going abroad to visit your in-laws and suddenly being told you have no right to go back to Britain because of a mistake in your passport.
That's what happened to Richard Black, who went to Trinidad almost 40 years ago to see relatives and has only just won his battle to be allowed to return to the UK.
But like so many families separated by the Windrush scandal, the nightmare continues.
Mr Black's daughter, who was born in Trinidad while he was stranded, is being denied the same right.
Focus of the Day Story: UK government taps TLT-led consortium for post-Brexit trade agreements. TLT to work with partners McDermott Will & Emery and Borden Ladner Gervais along with a network of subcontractor law firms. Full story - The Global Legal Post
