Utterly broken
THE Sun’s investigation into illegal working by migrants housed in asylum hotels lays bare just how broken Britain’s borders have become.
Without any active deterrent, more than 17,000 migrants have crossed the Channel on dinghies this year, waved on their way by useless French cops.
Within hours of arrival, most are sent to tax-payer funded hotels to await the outcome of asylum claims which can take months or years to resolve.
In the meantime, these mainly young men quickly find work in the black economy – all while we pay their rent.
Witness the rows of expensive online food delivery bikes brazenly parked up outside the hotels.
The residents aren’t legally allowed to work for at least 12 months – but nobody from the Home Office bothers to stop them, so they rake in thousands.
One rider sums it up: “Why should I stay inside when I can work and send money home?”
Migrants also know full well that working illegally won’t affect their asylum claim if they plead human rights to soft touch immigration judges.
The question for the Government is: how long will this utter fiasco contine?
The public has had enough of being taken for a ride.

Blind hate
WHAT was going through the minds of the mob marching in support of Palestine Action yesterday?
Nobody wants to deny anyone a legitimate right to protest.
But Home Secretary Yvette Cooper says the group’s violent action and campaign of intimidation means it must be banned as a terrorist group.
So what possesses anyone to rally to such a cause?
Blinded by hatred of Israel, it’s the same delusion that sees gay and trans rights campaigners clutch Iranian flags – oblivious of how they would be treated by Tehran’s Islamist regime.
The far Left would rather indulge in virtue-signalling than ever consider opening their eyes to evil.
Big squeeze
THE squeeze on working Brits continues as figures show private sector employment falling for the ninth month in a row.
It’s further evidence of how Labour’s national insurance rise continues to hammer business.
And that’s before firms are battered by Angela Rayner’s employment law changes make it much easier to strike.
Even the OBR says it could hit the economy for £5 billion a year and cost up to 50,000 jobs.
If the Government really is serious about growth, it should chuck Rayner’s Rights Bill in the deep freeze.
