How Do Scum Such As These Two, Not Only Manage To Live In This Country Illegally, But Also Manage To Convince The Authorities That They Were Tenants In This Tower Block, So As To Fraud The Taxpayers Out Of £120,000 In Hotel Bills And Living Costs?

Will they be kicked out after they have served their sentence? I very much doubt it, we have become a laughing stock.

Excellent best answer.

As someone who does refer to education being an answer, I would have to correct your perception that I 'always' proclaim it, or indeed that it is always the answer.


My responses advocating education are targeted to specific issues, and simple fraud / deception is not one of them.

"Despite the massive damage that Brexit will do to your(and mine)beloved country,judge?"

As has been said, any damage will be limited and short term. But even if it isn't, the erosion of the country's sovereignty is just too great (and will become greater) to consider membership worthwhile.

Incredible as it may seem, many nations outside the EU trade perfectly well with its member nations, some of them very well. Few, if any have formal trading agreements with the EU (mainly because that sclerotic organisation seems particularly inept at forging them). The difference is that none have to tolerate freedom of movement, be subject to the rulings of a supra-national court, or be subject to interference in their affairs that should rightly be the bailiwick of their sovereign parliaments.

You obviously enjoy all of that just so that large organisations in this country can adopt a lazy attitude to trading, protected by the most protectionist organisation in the world.

But as has been said, this is not a Brexit thread, but sometimes I just can't help myself.

I have no idea what you mean.

I have no issue with owning up to attitudes and opinions that I post, and defending them if appropriate - as I have done here.

That makes your post meaningless.

The authorities are well aware of the sub letting situation. If they evicted them, where would they place them? Sleeping dogs, comes to mind.
