How do i report an illegal worker?

If you disagree with the law then that's a separate issue, but that's not an excuse for a company to be employing people illegally.

I think that's a perfectly good excuse.

British poverty is very different from poverty abroad.

So what? I think it's fairly likely that they, like many others, are from the 'less desirable' countries. I think it's fairly apparent that it's only the rich and those from acceptable (usually white) countries that get to emigrate to Britain legally in any numbers. If you're a typical fellow from, say, Uganda, what opportunities to you have to come here, or indeed any other country, legally to work? Nil.

Immigrants come from **** countries, you learn something new everyday

But do you think the company is employing them to make a point about perceived injustice in the law, or because they want to take advantage of labour at below minimum wage?

Why? There are people suffering on our doorsteps and you'd rather look halfway across the world to help someone there instead. I'm sure I could find someone in the world worse off than these illegal workers, it doesn't mean they deserve more.

I want the standard of living of British people to slide, ultimately. The enormous economic privileges they take compared to other nations are unjustifiable. I don't want the population of Africa to come here, I want to make us a world that is co-dependent and realises that even the world's most impoverished should be given opportunities to raise their standard of living.

There's a bit of difference between someone who is desperate going to great lengths to come to this country to raise himself slightly from his poverty and often to help his family, and British thieves and benefit fraudsters.

And when there's no jobs for them all because millions are arriving each year, we must protect their human rights by giving them thousands in benefits and a roof over their heads.

Because mostly Britain only lets people in who are (a) rich or (b) white. The opportunities for foreigners to emigrate here solely for economic reasons are tiny.

It means that to be 'poor' in Britain is still to live a privileged lifestyle. The needs of the foreign poor are far greater than the needs of our 'poor', who have advantages most of the world can only dream of.

It all works out the same in the end; and I think many people are happy at the end result of keeping the number of foreign-looking types to a minimum.

TBH id agree with marcus on this one
Its a bit Machiavellian but truly I think it would be better to report the catering business. When you think of all the people who are smuggled into the country in crowded conditions to work for pitifully low cash in hand wages and living in squalid conditions, and the bastards that profit off this kind of crap... its deplorable.
Well done for everyone who came here legally, and all asylum seekers, etc etc etc. I understand that the immigration system is not what it should be and there will always be a sad story.
But at the end of the day, yes, think about the cockle pickers, think about those poor people in Holland that suffocated in the back of a truck trying to find themselves "better lives"... and that every person who comes here illegally is almost perpetuating the business of the little ****s who take advantage of people who are just trying to do well by their families.

wait, how come bastard isnt censored??? edit

While indeed a side topic and a different issue, many "asylum seekers" are just using the excuse that their country is tyrannical so they can become a legal migrant and thus claim the generous benefits and free housing that the UK offers.

Most of them don't actually arrive direct on a flight or boat from that tyrannical nation, they arrive off the back of a lorry from France or Holland, passing through Spain, Italy, Germany, etc on the way. Now, you can't say those countries are tyrannical, except perhaps in the way that they fail to provide benefits in the same way that the UK does.

Now while I do believe that we should take our own proportion of genuine asylum seekers, the number coming here is disproportionate to those arriving in the EU as a whole, and it is obvious really.

If all of them were escaping tyranny in whatever country, surely they'd claim asylum in the first safe country they reached.

They are here illegally. It follows logically that they were brought here illegally. The way that happens is through being ferried illegally by unscrupulous bastards who demand thousands for a one-way trip and then have them work off the payment in a low-paid job.

It's not a case of "they took our jobs", it's a case of undercutting the shady organisations that are behind bringing people into this country, and which funds drugs, people-trafficking, forgery, and extortion; not to mention the toll on the legitimate economy the shadow economy has.

Why? There are people suffering on our doorsteps and you'd rather look halfway across the world to help someone there instead. I'm sure I could find someone in the world worse off than these illegal workers, it doesn't mean they deserve more.

Yeah, the people who live on our streets and have to beg so they can eat. Real advantageous.
