Panorama now on BBC1 discussing plans/proposal to give an amnesty to the, possibly million, illegal imigrants here in the UK.

furious

So as finding them is difficult and deporting them is a ball ache you just grant them all an amnesty and instantly the number od ilegals becomes zero.

May as well hang a sign up and invite the world to come on in!

There was a 5 minute advert for this on the BBC's 6pm news. Vaguely masquerading as a news story, it was just a remind to watch panorama this evening...

And thus you have one million extra Labour voters.

Essentially an admission that the Home Office couldn't find it's arse with both hands. Not really a shock, though I suppose that it adds to the general feeling that the UK is fked beyond any hope. frown

Glad I'm not watching it, really.

If you mean, they get nicked, there's nowhere to put them so they are let go time and time again, i'd say there was a permanent amnesty. And for those that say it doesn't happen, oh yes it does!!!

. In 1999/2000, the Labour Government granted Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) to 21,000 applicants involving 29,200 people altogether, under what was described as a "backlog clearance exercise". ILR is, effectively, settlement.

9. On 24 October 2003 the Government announced that ILR would be granted to those families which had sought asylum in the UK before 2 October 2000, had children before that date and who had experienced delays in the system. Those who had committed a criminal offence or lodged multiple asylum applications were excluded. The Government appears to have concluded that these applicants would have had grounds for appeal against removal on human rights grounds. They claimed that the amnesty would save taxpayers support costs and legal costs. Announcing the measure, Mr Blunkett said that it would involve 15,000 families but it was not known exactly how many adults and children would be covered [5].

10. The numbers involved turn out to be much larger. 53,435 cases were identified for consideration as at 31 March 2005 [6] . By the end of 2005, 70,135 applicants and dependants had been granted indefinite leave to remain (settlement) with 20,000 cases still to be decided [7].
