Still digging

A generous interpretation would be that she just was not aware of the targets.  But it says volumes about her competence to manage her department.  The BBC reports:
The Home Office is to axe immigration removal targets - a day after Home Secretary Amber Rudd said they did not exist, the BBC understands.
Ms Rudd told MPs investigating the Windrush scandal on Wednesday targets were not set for immigration officials.
But after fresh evidence emerged overnight she was forced on Thursday to admit to MPs that "local" targets for "internal" use had been set.
...
The home secretary faced fresh calls to quit following her admission that the targets did exist and, according to union officials, are prominently displayed on posters at regional immigration centres.
She's toast.
