    Things are different in the UK

    By Graham frost -

    Her in Hastings UK we have immigration raids where van loads of officers raid businesses they think may be using illegal immigrants. Ethnic businesses and farms.Often they are arrested for not filling in a form correctly or if caught working they are deported. Trade Unions in the UK have no interest or policy towards illegals. If there is a EU polcy what is and why the different treatment of illegals?
