I read today in the Daily Express that 280 migrants have been arrested in food delivery rider raids.

About time something is started but that is not enough. The post goes onto say that 89 of these are set to be kicked out of the UK and that 59 may (I repeat may) lose their tax funded accommodation and support payment. The above really does not deal with the issues in any depth. Another sticking plaster.
–
Firstly, only deporting 89, They have come over here illegally and are working illegally. They have clearly committed 2 offences.
–
In another article on the same page, regarding the protester outside hotels, the government has been quoted as saying, we will never tolerate unlawful or violent behaviour. Whilst I agree with this, it is abundantly clear from the above that the government would and does tolerate unlawful behaviour, otherwise 280 migrants arrested would be deported.

I have a saying that i use often,
if you are going to have standards, make sure you have at least 2. (this is meant to be a joke but seems like the politicians consider it a rule)
–
The next point is the removal of tax funded accommodation and support payment, what a pointless policy. If the government does this, what will the migrants do? They will turn to crime.
–
So what would I do
It seems straight forward to me, as they have already committed 2 offences, they should be deported forthwith. We should have a fast-track process / court to deal with this. As the government said, we should not tolerate unlawful behaviour.
–
The illegal migrant issue is only getting worse, the country does not have the space to take all these migrants, approx. 1 million last year. There is not enough housing, the NHS does not have the capacity etc. The government finances (My taxes) cannot support the situation. As for the crimes that are being committed, you only need to have a look at the statistic (and understand them) and you should be extremely concerned.
