How about deporting ALL who dont work (Brits and all)...that would be millions thinks I, that would put the country on its feet over night.
The status of immigrants varies....Students for instance, are here to study,Some are supported from their homeland via government grants, wealthy parents etc.They are allowed to work something like 18 hours a week.And take up jobs in Mc Ds or Burger King.Some actually study as minimally and hold full time jobs....doing shitty jobs.
Asylum seekers whether you agree or not with their right to remain are a different kettle of fish.They are given a subsistance payment and are not supposed to work at all, while their cases are under review.Most if refused asylum, appeal, knowing they can stay longer due to a backlog of outstanding cases.A lot of these people are genuine,escapeing oppression of different kinds, and are here to make new lives.A great many work in the so called black market for low wages doing the jobs that Will calls shitty, and bolstering our economy by so doing.
Illegal Immigrants...as a rule normally work in the black market also,and due to their status need to work as they have no recourse to public funds due to their lack of any National Insurance Numbers.These people are also helping our economy doing the said shitty jobs for poor pay and in poor conditions. There are of course the hard core illegal that is in possession of illegal documents and milks the country for all they can....these are the ones we should worry about....but I believe they are in he minority....unless someone can prove their not of course...and that would be difficult due to their status....they dont fill in their census forms.
So who is it that you want sent back?
