There far more than 500k immigrants 'sans papiers' in the UK.
My question is: knowing that they don't have a single right as the rest of us, why should they care such as reporting a terrorist or trying to earn their living decently. If there is such big number of people - marginalised and treated like monsters because nobody dare to speack for them, what's the viable & PRACTICABLE solution to this problem

Declare an amnesty and allow them to stay for three years provided they have not committed any crime except illegally entering the UK. Get them paying taxes. If they are unemployed then give them 6 months to find work. If they do not find work then they need to go home. Pay them 50% of the normal unemployment benefit during this time.
In future allow offer 250,000 new places each year.
We spend a fortune in trying to catch them and then feed and house them before spending another fortune going through the courts to send them back home. Use this money to build infrastructure and in education. Educate them and offer them money to go home once they are trained.
Lets be positive instead of being negative. Have we no imagination?

Because they are illegal immigrants they should be executed? Mass genocide aside (I assume that was either a sick joke or the rant of someone without two braincells to rub together), the problem most people have with illegal immigration is foolish. I do not claim to know much about the U.K.'s situation but in the United States many have a problem with Mexicans stealing jobs from Americans. These people are not crossing the border and becoming CEO's of Fortune 500 companies, they are picking oranges and cleaning hotel rooms (I realize I come across as racist, but this is the sad truth).

This is actually an economic boon, these labor intensive jobs free up valuable time and create incentive for citizens to become educated and more productive. Perhaps the solution is to force tougher Welfare regulations, allowing aid only to citizens (although illegal immigrants for the most part are a hard working bunch). This way life is no easier in America (or the U.K.) than anywhere else, sans the language barrier. Cold hearted but practicable solution.

If they came legally... they wouldn't need anyone to speak for them, nobody would have feelings of obligation to speak for illegals, there wouldn't be a need to talk about the issue at all, because people entered the legal way.

Honestly, illegals know that they are illegals, the 1st day they entered the country. They know they can be deported at anytime, they know they can leave at anytime. They could do the right thing and leave on their own, that would get them much more respect and consideration. If illegals agreed to leave on their own, they'd have something to negotiate with. Legal citizens would be more likely to help them return legally, increase immigration numbers, etc. The longer illegals continue to demand more, while offering nothing more in return, other than what they currently do, isn't an effective bargaining technique. Many illegals are positive-productive workers, however the number of negative-unproductive illegals, continues to increase, creating a variety of new problems that effect everyone and require solutions. Yes, Illegals contribute funds to system, but the amount going in is less than the amount they take out. Citizens are stuck paying the difference, paying for solutions and talking all the blame. Illegals want to get more and do less. Not cool...

The History of Legal Immigration for America is that the People who came here became Americans! They learned to speak, read and write English, the Common Language that binds Americans. What we have now are People who do not want to be Americans, just Citizens so that they can live off our Welfare State supported by Taxing Legal Americans to death. They believe that they have more rights than Legal American Citizens, and that they are going to take back California, Arizona, and Texas, and kill or otherwise eliminate Americans from these States of the United States of American.
If you bothered to read and watch new reports, you might know these things.
As for no one speaking for them, try talking to the Liberal Press. They help Illegals to break the Laws. The Liberal Democrats welcome as many as can illegally cross our Borders, and want them registered as Democrats. These people care not for the Legal Citizens of the U. S. A. They do not care how much we are taxed to support the Illegals and their off springs. They do not care that Hospitals are going Broke by being forced to care for Illegals free of charge. They do not care that these People are Law Breakers, and Illegally in OUR Country. The only thing they do care for is that they will vote for the Democrats.

Deport them. The UK as well as of western Europe has problems with illegal immigration. Hell, the whole civilized, and dare I say, white world, has problems with illegal immigraton.
Never mind deportation because they will just come back. Shoot them. The others will get the message.

many immigrants are people who could not wait ten years to become legal citizens. they wanted a better life style as soon as they could. and that normal life style includes reporting terrorists and stuff that everyone else do. don't worry i'm not an illegal, i wuz born and bred here, but that doesn't mean all of them are bad.

Isn't it sad that both our countries have the identical problems with politicians doing nothing?
