To be perfectly honest I think public expectation is now so low that people just read and sigh because experience has taught them that it's all hot air and nothing will be done.

.

Not funny. Well overdue. Of course they shouldn't still be here to get a bike.

I think people care very much and find the whole thing more than frustrating.  Hopeless in fact.   They've just learnt from experience that nothing will be done about it.  And still more flood in.  

Where in the world are you Max?

We are all well aware of the government's failure to return illegals and give them their heart's desire. It's been commented on many times. Now finding they were being allowed to flaunt the 'no employment' bit is bad enough, but it's now being cracked down on, allegedly.

Max, people in this country are also aware that if they go too much against 2TK's plans for incresing the labour vote they will find themselves doing a 30 month stretch.

It has become past a joke now with this Trot in charge.

And as Naomisays, nothing will happen just like all the other sound bites from Labour.

If they are here & there's little or no possibility of getting rid of them then I suppose they may as well work. It's the thin end of a very large wedge that will change Britain for the worse & forever. Thankfully I won't be around to see it.

Thanks for answering, Max.  A different world.

@14.41."Thankfully i wont be around to see it",me also dave,i see a time coming when the first names Mohammed or Abdul or Osama are the majority names of the male new-borns in this country,within the next ten years perhaps?

Mohammed already is.  But there is a reason for that.

If every family of Anglo-Saxon origin called their first born son John, that would be the most common boys name by a very long margin.

You will have noticed that no Muslim girls' names are in the top names lists.

Yes, that is what I said; there is a reason for it.  I think most people know it by now.

This government to blame yet again? Do you think all these illegals got their jobs after the GE? Stuff like this has been going on for years - restauirants, nail bars, etc, etc, etc, and no matter who was at the helm at the time, no-one has done anything worthwhile to stop it.

They're all to blame.

If every family of Anglo-Saxon origin called their first born son John, that would be weird, crazy, bizarre.

Just as calling your first born Muhammad is.

Of course it was all dealt with so much better under the Tory government NOT.  Record levels unsurpassed since.

We're way past that, canary.  Keep up!

“I dont understand why there was less fuss made of it have you been so gaslighted you now no longer care.”

It isn’t a case of “gaslighting”. Everybody in the UK who has done even a scintilla of research  (which includes all the politicians who would have you believe otherwise) knows that anybody arriving illegally into the UK stands virtually zero chance of ever being removed. All the illegal migrants know that as well.

This latest hullabaloo has arisen because a newspaper has discovered something that the authorities who are supposed to be in control of this train crash called migration should have known about as soon as it began and put a stop to it.

Now they throw their hands up in shock and horror and promise to arrest those working illegally. When they hear this the public immediately make two very sound assumptions:

Firstly it is unlikely in the extreme that many, if any, illegal migrant workers will be arrested. Secondly, even if they are, they will remain in this country, despite having broken one of the main conditions of them being allowed to remain here to claim asylum.

This is simply plain reality. The people of this country are being taken for a massive, multi-billion pound ride by foreign chancers who don’t like it where they are and would prefer to be here, delivering pizzas instead.

They will continue to enjoy that ride unless and until a government realises that the only way to put a stop to it is to physically prevent them landing here.
