No attempt at objectivity. The statement that the discharge and repatriation of the men was illegal requires further justification where it is based on their being 'deported. There is nothing in the archive to substantiate the claim that any of the men were made subject of deportation orders under the 1919 Alien Act. They were contract seamen who were no longer required and, except for those who were married to British women, whom the reports identify as special cases, were simply told to report for embarkation in accordance with the terms of their articles. The same procedure applied to surplus Greek seamen in Cardiff. The claim that the government covered up the affair is sensationalist nonsense and has no basis in the records cited and is merely repetition of someone else's unfounded assertion. 80.2.237.179 ( talk) 21:22, 24 September 2021 (UTC) reply
