I guess this is to me...exactly why would you oppose to an amnesty ???? how could it bother you .
now pardon me if iam a bit blunt .but reading your post about that man who told you about his ways of getting ILR ,i mean it is wrong but why would you be infuriated to the point of thinking about grassing him up .what impact would it have on your life at all ?
Where did I write anything like this? Judging by your previous posts, you seem cheesed off by everything...frankly i really get cheesed off by people who think that the rest of the immigrants community should have it a little "harder " than wished for
Have you considered the fact they they're taking the piss and you've fallen for it?Janit wrote: Could the moderators please remind forum members that English should be used for posting information/comments.

It doesn't seems so. But you might be interested in reading and participating in this campaign.bleak_future wrote:Does anyone know whether its true that there is an amnesty for overstayers happening soon?
The only kind of "amnesty" that would be acceptable would be a scheme for overstayers to be granted financial assistance to return to their home country, with perhaps the incentive of a much shorter bar on re-entry to the UK through legal channels in future.tasha75 wrote: The Government has ruled out an amnesty and this remains our position. We believe an amnesty would undermine public confidence in the immigration system and there is no moral case for doing so.
I really don't see why that is ironic. Presumably some foreign nationals would be in favour of an amnesty and some opposed, as with almost any other group of people.eso wrote:foreign national posters who oppose to the idea of an amnesty or reglarisation schemes (flippin ironic )
But I agree with that - such behaviour is just rude and boorish, apart from anything else.eso wrote:people talking down to you because you are an illegal etc etc
The problem is, as the Americans found to their detriment in the 1930s, as soon as you prohibit something, not only do you create a black market for, but you also lose control of it.olisun wrote:That will push the demand for higher salaries which the majority of the employers do not want to pay...Dawie wrote:Surely they deserve a chance to legalise their situations
This may or may not lead to employers hiring more illegall immigrants...
Not necessarily disagreeing with what you're saying, but it's worth pointing out that part of the reason for the present mess is that the immigration laws haven't been enforced strictly - or more accurately, haven't been enforced consistently; and of course they're still not being. The complaint that is often heard - that hard-working, tax-paying illegal immigrants are targeted by the authorities while, for example, criminals who are in the country illegally are not - is largely true. Similarly, those who apply for the correct visa for the purpose of their visit are often, it seems, subject to delays and other difficulties, while those who simply flout the system by overstaying or not declaring their intent in the first place have a much easier time of it.Dawie wrote:Enforcing strict immigration laws while ignoring the things that cause people to migrate in the first place (like war, famine, economic hardship) is pointless.
