The BBC reports that:
The Home Office has admitted illegal immigrants have been mistakenly cleared for jobs as security staff.
Let's read that again:The Home Office has admitted illegal immigrants have been mistakenly cleared for jobs as security staff. [emphasis added]
Bloody hell! If the Home Office is so bad at screening it's own security staff as to end up employing people who shouldn't even be in the country, how on earth can we trust them to screen out terrorists and other undesirables?They don't even know how many immigrants there are in this country, for crying out loud! So what the hell are they for?
The Home Office says that companies are responsible for ensuring that their staff were legal to work. Except, obviously, themselves. If the Home Office of all people can't screen their own personnel, what chance have other companies? Unless, of course, the Home Office is just incompetent, and still absolutely not "fit for purpose".
