Immigrants ultimately seeking a life in the UK
The reality is not what they think it is
Now Hear This. The unvarnished truth about something I predicted 10 years ago.
We were 'sold' a story by Government of the day
that we would need migrants to fill jobs
Back in the day, when Eastern European countries gained free movement, a swathe of people came to the UK to work. A few thousand was the estimate of the people that would actually come said the Blair government, it turned into more like 3 million.
As in the late 1950's, when the then government encouraged West Indians to migrate to Britain to fill a perceived shortage of workers, the 'need' was actually not likely there.
In the 1990's, the Army came up with an acronym MARILYN, which stood for manning and recruitment in the lean years of the 90's. Back then, the Army perceived that a falling birthrate would lead to a recruitment crisis.
The start of a new life or modern slavery?
When the Eastern Europeans came, many were from Poland and filled job gaps in the construction market.
Whilst many remembered the Polish contribution in 1940 to our war effort, the mood changed and ghettoes of migrants started to spring up, some companies reportedly became largely migrant employees only or were reportedly seen as taking all the jobs from British people.
The UKIP political party highlighted the situation that mass unchecked immigration would result in and this played a major factor in the Brexit vote going to the 'Out' supporters.
Within the recent Eastern European influx, other migrants from outside of the EU countries managed to get in and ended up in a more sinister scenario, prostitution and forced labour, essentially modern day slavery.
Often these people were students who outstayed their VISAs or came on visitor VISA's and just vanished into the Black Economy. 'Working on the black,' off the radar of tax, benefits, healthcare, basically existing and working illegally in Britain.
They are disenfranchised people and victims of an underclass that is trapped, cannot speak out and cannot escape.
Essentially this has created a situation of modern day slavery and in many cases, the victims of slavery are created so from people from their own countries who live in the UK legally. But white British people might be accused of racism for saying so. Even though that is the truth.
House overcrowding, up to 28 people in a suburban house
The reason why the illegals become trapped is that they often don't want to leave and want to stay in Britain, they get sucked into an underground population that is 'off the radar'.
Many businesses in the South East of England can only operate because they employ people on the fringes of society, likely unknowingly that the agencies supplying them are supplying illegal workers.
They likely rely on the agencies being apparently 'legit' in supplying 'legit' workers legally entitled to work in the UK. They may feel that as long as they satisfy the 'legal' requirements and only employ from agencies that 'guarantee' to supply 'legal' workers, that is all their oversight complete. They monitor and put in safeguards but people work the system.
Businesses need workers in order to operate. Every now and then some company or other is busted by the Immigration Service and a load of people deported.
The 'compliance' culture and industry is an over bureaucratic job creation scheme and does not address the plight of enslaved workers in the UK. What it was partly supposed to prevent!
Migrant Workers without rights to be in the UK have little alternative than to go to bent employment agencies to survive.
Bent agencies will essentially supply migrant workers 'on the side', without any accreditation. The workers get paid less than legitimate workers, but they can't say anything or they might get beaten up or bubbled up to the immigration service and deported.
Because they have no right to remain, they just have to stay, keep quiet and keep out of trouble. Often in squalid and Dickensian conditions.
Many 'black economy' migrants have to live in garden sheds
House prices are so high in the South East of England that many indigenous people can't afford to take low paid jobs in the South East and live there too. Migrants in limbo, are often put into houses in these areas with up to 30 other workers and can fill the jobs that others just cannot afford to take. The Landlords having high occupancy can afford to own the houses.
These properties were not designed for this level of multiple occupancy.
When I saw the Eastern European influx 10 plus years ago, I said that there would be a Dickensian era type underclass situation to come and it has sadly been proven right.
One benefit of Brexit is that EU citizens can no longer just come to the UK. For those in the Calais camps waiting to come, the door has been shut, but they still want to get to the UK, even though they will never get legal citizenship.
I do feel sorry for these illegals here but they are after all, illegally here.
