Illegal working is booming because Labour have turned Britain into a soft touch.
If France showed people smugglers half the seriousness they showed me, the boats would stop.
I think a bill which creates a path to citizenship for illegal migrants and cancels the obligation on the government to remove people who arrive illegally is a shocking piece of legislation.
