UK arrests 105 illegal foreign nationals

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak also attended an early morning visit in Brent, North London

In a major crackdown on illegal immigration, enforcement officers in the UK arrested 105 foreign nationals from over 20 countries, who were found working illegally in the country.

The nationwide operation by the Home Office on Friday saw over 300 immigration officers on 159 enforcement visits in a day at commercial premises, including restaurants, car washes, nail bars, barber shops and convenience stores.

“Illegal working harms our communities, cheats honest workers out of employment and defrauds the public purse as no taxes are paid...we are committed to tackling the abuse of our laws and borders,” Home Secretary Suella Braverman said. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak also attended an early morning visit in Brent, North London.
