      boy i sure wish the tories were this proactive when they were in fucking power….

      Mods can we stop people copying and pasting across multiple subs at once?  Boring astroturfing scroats.

    3. Acceptable_Rock_7175 on

      The Conservatives always call for this stuff when out of power but do nothing when in power.

      That doesn’t sound like it’s an effective disincentive.

      Did they mean that a percentage of the employer’s revenue determined by the percentage of illegal workers should be seized?

      I think Deliveroo would find that an interesting risk to manage

      No-one is going to listen to the Tories. We’ve seen this all before. Talk tough on migration, do nothing, bring in a tax cut for the rich and increase the national debt. No-one is falling for it anymore.

    6. Icy-Lavishness5139 on

      I call for Conservatives to be deported and have their wages seized.

    7. If they did this when they had power then maybe they’d still be in power

      Jesus christ.

      The tories just need to sit down and shut up.

      They’re like an arsonist that burns down your house, but wants to tell you how to clean up the wreckage.

      How are you going to catch illegal workers? They’re not documented and the country doesn’t have the resources to find, investigate, detain, or deport.

      So unless they plan on raising taxes by 50% and risking riots, or enforcing taxation on their rich friends that don’t pay then (which won’t happen) then they aren’t going to be able to afford it.

      The conservatives could tell me drinking water is good for your health and I still wouldn’t listen to them.

      Rot in hell you worthless traitors

    11. Severe-Bicycle-9469 on

      Surely the more effective measure is to go after the people employing them. If it becomes too much of a risk for employers to use them, they won’t. Rather than taking the wages of some deliveroo driver, tackle deliveroo

      I get why they do it. Asylum applications can take 12+ months and the £80pm doesn’t go far. (I do think we need to work on speeding up the process and ensuring they perhaps can work whilst being processed provided they pay tax or something).

      But at the same time they are currently in breach of UK asylum law at which point yes they should be deported. But where to when it’s not safe in their own country and therefore sending them back would be in breech of human rights.

      As for those not seeking asylum and are illegal. Well they should be deported regardless of being caught working. They didn’t enter the country by legal means.

      Or you could just give them temporary national insurance numbers and tax that income?

      If they wanna work rather than sit in an asylum hotel, get the tax revenue.

    14. Nice_Put4300 on

      Is it just me or were the conservatives in power recently? No? Okay just me. Let’s carry on pretending the country is this way for random reasons.

    15. Ok-Commission-7825 on

      So they are also going to support wages for those jobs being high enough for people who actually have to live in the UK to live off right? … Right?

    16. Alarmed_Inflation196 on

      “Opposition says crap that attempts to make polling figures to up”. They would just make it worse

      We haven’t forgotten recent history

    17. Kobruh456 on

      Why seize their wages though? Unnecessary cruelty when these people need to make a living. And the employers will just replace them with new workers to exploit, so it doesn’t solve any problem.

    18. djpolofish on

      Conservatives?… You mean populist goose marchers that want us to go back to a certain time in 1930s Germany.

      History being repeated, blame those without money and power for all the problems created by the bourgeoisie.

    19. And the people who hire illegal workers get sent to jail, too, right?

    20. ucardiologist on

      Tories?
      But where were those tough guys in the last 15 years?
      They have brought to the Uk 2 million Indians and Africans to suppress the wages for hard working people and make all of us poor at the hands of few billionaires and their predatory companies
      Eg
      Amazon they destroyed millions of Bussinesses that was employing millions and paid taxes
      Where’s Amazon pays shit nothing
      Uber another one reporting billions no taxes
      Google eBay and many more

    21. So if I have a load of stuff I want hauling to the tip, and I pick a “man with a van” who advertised that they’ll take trash and pay them to haul it away for me, I need to check that they have the correct garbage carrying licences, and I’ve they don’t, it’s me who faces a fine even though I’m not their employer but just took them at their word that they could do it.

      But a delivery company isn’t liable for hiring people without the legal licensing to work because they are not their employer, they’re freelance delivery people?

      There really is a two year justice system in this country, it’s just based on your bank balance.

    22. hime-633 on

      Chris Philp. Well, that tells me everything I need to know.

      Penalise the COMPANIES who are hiring illegal workers ffs.

    23. Next_Replacement_566 on

      Well Tories made this. Cutting home office budget, cut policing, cut consulates, cut border security.

    24. the_smug_mode on

      Shame it’s just a bunch of lies like every other promise they made.

    25. Flat_Manufacturer386 on

      Uber Eats indirectly hire the illegal migrants, then hire the Lime Bikes to them to do the deliveries. It’s the companies profiting off this, that make this country so popular in the first place. You’ve got to deal with the causes, not the symptoms.
