But what about the 'servant'? Surely she has been arrested for presenting false documents and will either be sent to prison and/or deported?

But from the article:Originally posted by The Lone Gunman View PostIt just goes to show how difficult it is for employers to find out if the person they are hiring is legal or not.
If one of the top legal minds in the country cant get it right what chance has an ordinary bloke got?
Sorry but that doesn't sound like the actions of a "top legal mind" to me, more like forgetting that you've paid your mortgage off.The UK Border Agency said she took steps to check Tongan Loloahi Tapui's right to work but had not kept a copy of documents, as required by law.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment

No, these chaps will no doubt claim asylum and therefore be able to claim Asylum Support. They won't have to work, indeed they are prevented from working.Originally posted by GreenerGrass View PostMore broccoli pickers on the way:

I saw a young lad being interviewed on the news last night in the Calais camp. He said he was fleeing from the Taliban. It made me wonder why Afghan lads of fighting age are fleeing here while our lads are dying in Afghanistan every day, fighting the Taliban.Numbly tolerating the inequality as a way to achieve greater prosperity for all.Comment

She said she was confident that "having seen the example made of me there won't be any woman in the country who won't be now reaching for that passport and making sure she's got the copy".

TypicalBut because she had not knowingly employed an illegal worker and had checked documents Mr Brown believed " no further action" was necessary.
However shadow home secretary Chris Grayling told the BBC the law was very clear - that employers could not be "inadvertently innocent".

Given that she was the person responsible for getting this law passed it's hard to see why she left herself open to this. Surely if you are responsible for getting this law through the HoL the one thing you would do is check that you comply with it unless you really are especially stupid!
As for the comment from Brown, I thought that not knowing was no defense in a court of law.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment

Usual lies, spin and misrepresentation from the Civil Servants.
The Law doesn't say you have to keep copies. Unfortunately, the Civil Servants don't care about that, and they have decided that it you don't, you are guilty of not checking (even if you did). Another part of the reversal of the presumption of innocence presided over by this pathetic government.
Baroness Scotland should resign at once for passing yet another law making us all property of daft and occasionally vicious Civil Servants who think they know what's good for us. I am pleased she got the fine, now she should do the decent thing and go.Comment

Top legal mind? Give us a break m8. If you looked closely at some of the crap that is coming out of this government, you'd soon realise these people are either on crack or need a serious application of clue stick. The Lords keep sending stuff back commenting, amongst other things, on the atrocious spelling, and the government still pushes it through, bypassing the Lords anyway. Never mind they use 'enabling acts' for just about everything, so they can just about govern by proclamation.Originally posted by The Lone Gunman View PostIt just goes to show how difficult it is for employers to find out if the person they are hiring is legal or not.

Maybe we should have a central database where people can go and find out about candidates
Seriously, it's going to take a good few parliaments to clean up the legal mess they've created.Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.
