Up here there was very little change until maybe about 4 years ago, every large office building has groups of bobs hanging around outside smoking through the day.

So you do some tulipty English course here (because you don't speak English), have a sprog and you're in for life.
Originally posted by stek View PostNot strictly true, that's only the case if the child is born to one of the parents being a UK or EU citizen, if not, the whole lot go, unless the child is over eight and it can be proved it has a UK life and not fair to be deported, then the parents can apply for Discretionary Leave, aka DL, which is a nightmare of waiting with no permission to work, it's no gravy boat really.
Your second paragraph is rubbish really, sorry, it's just not true, UK immigration is very tough now, EU law and HRA get in the way, but aside from that it is a police state if u r illegal here and no fun at all..
As for being illegal - I accept it ain't much fun if caught - but realistically what are the chances of that? and even that propaganda docu-soap about the immigration boot boys shows them giving people who can't furnish a passport a little bit of paper telling them to hand themselves in later - and admits that they never do.

Originally posted by TimberWolf View PostIs it that easy to get into other countries, e.g. Australia or US? And does getting some random stranger pregnant count for men?
From construction to agriculture, to restaurants to gardening, to childrearing, hotels and home help, illegal immigrants are a major driver of the US economy. They may have no papers, but that does not stop them paying taxes, buying homes and raising children who, if born in the US, are American citizens.

I've seen people from the Indian Sub-continent who've done crappy course after crappy course for ten years and got PR - that's the incentive.
So no - it's not good news.
