How about the Windrush story? The immigrants (and their children) who arrived in the 1950s were entitled to apply for passports but some did not bother. Then in 2009 the landing cards were destroyed and so now there is no way they can prove they are entitled to remain in the UK. They are not being thrown out but they are worried that if they leave on their Jamaican passports they may not be readmitted. There is widespread wringing of liberal hands over this issue and Lord somebody or other, who advises Corbyn, accused Theresa May of behaving like Nazi Germany!!! Some perspective has been lost methinks, or an ignorance of history is to blame.

A government spokesman has now stated:
“The Home Secretary has been clear, this is about people who have built their lives here in the UK and contributed so much to our society. We don't want them to feel unwelcome or to be in any doubt about their right to remain here and she has apologised unreservedly for any distress caused. The vast majority will already have documentation that proves their right to be here. For those that don't, we have established a new dedicated team to quickly help them get the documentation they need and ensure this is resolved as soon as possible.”

But this is not seen as enough, still the furore continues

That story is an example of the media blowing things up to fill column inches. You seem a little inconsistent in your rants about the main-stream media if you are quoting what is exactly the thing you rail against.

They found some of the landing cards, not yet clear how many. As for being inconsistent, you put words into my mouth, I didn't complain about the MSM, in fact I assumed they were just faithfully reporting the liberal angst being expressed by the various protesting organisations. It may be true that the MSM supports them but I wouldn't go so far as to say they would misquote a government spokesman.
