Reports indicate that the Labour government, led by Keir Starmer, has conducted extensive raids targeting workplaces employing illegal immigrants.

The UK has deported 19,000 individuals, including illegal immigrants and foreign criminals, as part of a major crackdown inspired by similar measures in the US under the Trump administration. For the first time, the UK government has released footage of the deportations.

Reports indicate that the Labour government, led by Keir Starmer, has conducted extensive raids targeting workplaces employing illegal immigrants. These include Indian restaurants, nail bars, convenience stores, and car washes—industries where migrant workers are commonly employed.

As part of the crackdown, 1,090 civil penalty notices have been issued to employers, with warnings of fines up to £60,000 per illegal worker.
