Disclaimer & comment rulesWhat usually happens in the UK when an employer gets caught employing an illegal immigrant is they get a hefty fine....I wonder did the Govt. fine themselves...?

With so many unemployed locals that cant afford to pay winter heating you would think they would get the job…

At least he has the honesty to put his hand up, not like in Argieland they would hang on to power as long as they can. What a sad lot of losers in Argie Government. You only have to look at Boudou

@7 He should be praised for his efficiency. SEVEN felonies before breakfast! Top *that* New Labour! (if you *can*). And they of course will see his cleaning lady raise him with a couple gardeners and an au-pair (odd that, since the person's kids will be in college).

Briton...I don't know the details...how foreign the immigrant was....a lot of them are Eastern Europeans mixed with Russians that appear to have the right documentation...Ukraine etc...
Feb 12th, 2014 - 08:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0They often pass a cursory glance at passport and documentation...
It was probably not even him that decided, but one of his managers....
It's all about removing political embarrassments and leverage.
There's nothing worse than a showdown in the the Commons and point scoring for trivialities....That's my opinion....
I don't think he deserved the sack.....

@1, 16 Changed your tune, haven't you? Let's see now; British minister arranges to employ a cleaner; looks at docuemts supplied(?); continuing checks (why were there continuing checks?); minister is informed that cleaner is illegal immigrant; minister resigns (not “sacked”). Can we imagine an argie or Scottish minister doing the same? Argies we can understand. Like other latams, they are all corrupt criminals. Scotties? Well, their own “First Minister” (criminal) won't explain how he justifies spending tens of thousands of pounds trotting out to the United States with his huge entourage. There IS an explanation. It goes like this “If you shut up, we can fiddle this through the ”accounts“ so that the English taxpayers pay”. Now what's wrong with being honest about that? All English people know that there hasn't been an “honest” Scot in the last 5,000 years. Even then it was an “error”. Know why Scots wear kilts and no underwear? It's so they can steal “small” valuable things and hide them in their arses. That's when they aren't raiding and stealing across the border. Frontier minefields will be an essential. So many new “editions” of the “Flying Scotsman”.
