Gordon Brown: "this country turned its back"
Gordon Brown has said sorry to the Cornish child migrants who were among thousands sent to Australia. He also offered them £6 million remuneration.
Rex Wade, of St. Columb, is one of thousands of child migrants who has received an apology from the Prime Minister. Many suffered years of abuse.
At the age of 11 he was sent from his home in Camborne to start a new life in Tasmania.
