Over the years the Wigan area seemed to have been a place that missed the problem but now it is increasing at a very fast rate and will no doubt get very much worse.This country is finished as most of us know it.

Today’s Telegraph

Yvette Cooper has pledged to end “jobs on tap” for illegal immigrants by closing loopholes in Britain’s lax border laws.
The Home Secretary has vowed to “restore order to the asylum system” by targeting takeaway delivery services and beauty salons that hire on the black market.
She is announcing that rogue bosses of “gig economy” companies that employ workers without a visa could face unlimited fines and five years behind bars.
She told The Telegraph: “We are restoring order to the asylum system. This means introducing tough laws and stopping rogue employers in their tracks. We will clamp down on the jobs on tap that undercut the labour market.”
Her intervention comes ahead of a major organised crime summit on Monday, when border officials from 40 countries will gather in London.
Labour will this week attempt to shift the public focus from criticism of Rachel Reeves’ Spring Statement onto its plans for tougher immigration controls.
Under the current rules, companies must carry out right-to-work checks on employees, but they do not have to do so when using self-employed contractors.
Unverified workers
The Government has said there are thousands of companies across the UK using flexible arrangements like these, which include zero-hours contracts.
It means the visa status of many people hired in sectors including food delivery, construction, beauty salons and courier services is not verified.
Takeaways, restaurants, car washes and barber shops are among the businesses that have been found most likely to hire illegal workers.
The Home Secretary says she will table new laws to end the employment distinction, bringing gig economy companies into line with those that employ regular staff.
She said: “Turning a blind eye to illegal working plays into the hands of callous people smugglers trying to sell spaces on flimsy, overcrowded boats with the promise of work and a life in the UK.
“These exploitative practices are often an attempt to undercut competitors who are doing the right thing. But we are clear that the rules need to be respected and enforced.
“These new laws build on significant efforts to stop organised immigration crime and protect the integrity of our borders, including increasing raids and arrests for illegal working and getting returns of people who have no right to be here to their highest rate in half a decade.”

The loopholes need to closed in the middle of the English Channel before they even set foot on our land

This is all part of a big project for the future.
It's someone's project. Well, no, it's some organisation's project. No-one, well, no, no other organisation, can stop it. It follows that the 'organisation' who's project it is is way more powerful than any of the organisations which are supposed to represent us, the people.
A lot of the governments are dead-set on carrying out the project on behalf of the greater force. Our government is one of them.
What can turn the governments against this faceless organisation?
War? No, because the only winner would be that faceless organisation which will always be there, running The World, their way.

THEM MEN!
