I am myself a (legal) "immigrant" in the UK (I have actually been here for two years), and believe me, I do pay for this illegal immigration stuff with mostly my time, patience and money. I will be digressing a bit here, but to get a life in our "modern world" you do need a good credit history, and there is no other way to build up one's credit history than over time and regular payments. No need to say that I left Switzerland at exactly the wrong time, which is when I hadn't had a full time job or rented a place yet. Getting settled in a foreign country is tricky and takes an awful lot of time, especially when people don't believe you when you say that coming from Switzerland you are entitled to live and work in the UK without a visa. Plus processes to open a bank account or do any similar thing now takes many more steps and time because the immigration issue got out of control. Now to gather my thoughts and expose my point... :) To be honest, I do think that the issues starts with situations like here in the UK, where the MPs themselves do not "have the faintest idea" of the numbers [of the illegal immigrants in the UK]"... this is very scary, and screws up the whole system for honest people who come to work and integrate in a foreign country.
