London: The UK follows a strict approach similar to former US President Donald Trump in dealing with illegal immigrants. Authorities have targeted foreign offenders, especially those working illegally in the country. Recently, UK-wide raids were conducted in Indian restaurants, car wash areas, convenience stores, and bars, resulting in the arrest of hundreds of people. The UK Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, stated that these measures aim to prevent businesses from illegally employing undocumented workers.

In a recent raid on an Indian restaurant in Humberside, immigration officials arrested seven individuals working without legal permits, while four others were detained for questioning. Similarly, in a South London Indian grocery warehouse, six people were arrested. The UK Home Office has defended its strict actions, releasing videos of detainees being shackled with handcuffs and chains. Officials claim these individuals were involved in criminal activities, justifying the harsh treatment.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer recently addressed concerns about rising illegal immigration, vowing to end the issue. On Monday, the UK Parliament discussed a bill related to illegal immigration, border security, and asylum seekers, highlighting the economic and human cost of unchecked migration. Since the Labour Party came to power in July last year, the government has focused on tightening border security, arresting nearly 19,000 illegal workers and foreign criminals. However, the targeting of Indian restaurants in the latest raids has sparked debate
