[Escapee]

I guess the TUC have gained their figures from companies they deal with who are responsible, above board and above all trustworthy.

Companies illegally employing migrant workers with no work permits and illegal passports will not be included in these figures. My area has very few immigrants, but its only a matter of months ago an Asian convenience store less than a quarter of a mile away was raided. They found and arrested somewhere in the region of 17 illegal immigrants (from memory) that were living above the shop, all smuggled in by the owner.

There have not been any follow on news reports about the incident. I also understand one of the local kebab houses is reputed to have a large number of immigrants living above the premises, and a few of these are working in the shop.

For every good piece of evidence there is bad evidence, and with the government having no idea how many illegal immigrants there are here its a little silly to portray a picture of all being well.
