A Good Brief Synopsis In Regard To » Uk Employment Law Minimum Wage Along With Comparable Analyses

Is it credible that Jacqui Smith can claim that they didn't have sufficient information to advise parliament?

regarding the illegal immigrants working in security.
Part of the defence offered today by a former advisor was that nothing happened because they didn't want the illegal immigrants to melt away into the black economy.

This seems odd as the employers are responsible for establishing legal status. Why haven't company directors been interviewed under caution by police for possibly breaking the law?
If these workers were paying tax and NI where did they get their NI numbers? Does that legitamise them or raise the possability of fraudulent NI numbers? Who and where?

What about the wages? Minimum or above, dependents and benefit claims? Surely these people now have a right to expect UK to care for them as we failed to stop them from getting in and gaining legitamate employment?
If not wont we push them and their families into poverty while we take 5 years to arrest, try and deport some of them from over crowded detention centers?

All I can say is thank goodness for whistle blowers.

But there is an alternative theory that the "leak" of this information was actually engineered by the Government to highlight the difficulty of tracking illegal immigrants and then using this to strengthen their argument for ID cards.
