As an aside, I’ve seen this happen elsewhere as well. Classic play for wage theft. When I was working as a bartender in London to make ends meet, I had a coworker from Mexico on an expired visa. Great guy and the most hardworking. Well won’t you guess it, guy got picked up by immigration authority on payday.

    It’s just an excuse to be openly racist.

    I’m constantly surprised as I wander thro my middle England life with the people who have had a privileged existence yet still hold ignorant views on immigration.

    How about we acknowledge why this historically angry little island of ours has so much immigration and that each decade’s wave of influx has positively contributed to our society

      Yeah, OK Margaret, we’ll just ignore your middle-aged son who has never worked a day in his life, and your several grandchildren with severe autism.

      Looking forward to my front row seat when they see what Reform’s “war on wokery” really means for those people.
