It's just like the 1950's and 60's when the Irish labourers waited at street corners in London to get a days work
in places like Camden town or Cricklewood. Nothing has changed , history repeats itself.
Rupert leanne. History does repeat itself. Many were moonlighting in the 80,s.when.industries shut down and did other things.
the only difference is that the irish (and jamaicans at the same time) were called to the country to work by the government to help the growth of industry
It still happens today. Even in so called Affluent areas like Richmond upon thames. But, and heres the rub...... it aint just immigrants.
I could compile a list right now of at least 20 guys I know, who are on the dole but gather at predesignated points at predetermined times , to be picked up, driven to various building sites where the will be dropped off. At the end of the the week they hand over their paypackets to the driver. He then hands them 90% of their takehome pay. When the driver gets to the workforce leader, he hands over the "takings" and is paid 60% .
It is not unusual for a workforce leader to earn £5 k per week in this manner.
I do not report this for many reasons. But to me the most important factor is that this grey economy provides a route by which an unemployed person can maintain a certain work ethic. Besides which, it's actually none of my business.
@@paullee5573 Exactly. It is a rough and tumble economy. But it is an economy at the end of the day. I think we can all agree that migrants having proper papers and a safe job and good housing and not being exploited is better than this. But it's just how the world works now. If that's a good or bad thing. I will let you decide. But as you said. At least they are making money is some way.
It's not my business what they do with their lives. They are just trying to make ends meat
Just like the days of the Irish outside the crown in cricklewood, then lads would be paid in the pub afterwards and spend half their wages.
I'm Polish, I don't know if many of you even realise that the ones that are dogging the tax system and not paying taxes in UK are huge companies,like Boots ,Amazon or Starbucks. they are the ones not contributing to the tax system in this country. They are the ones we all should be fighting, not each other!
Well said
Too true
I agree
Agata Hogata We know this about Facebook,boots not paying tax. Your not seeing the bigger picture, the elites have engineered this so they cause a war against each other. British are finding hard to live in the UK. Then British people called lazy because of this.
True but people don't see that
Everybody has to eat & that food aint free .Least their not out stealing .
They are here illegally though, as they are not really from Romania.
Jackyblue67 Same
But don't encourage your employer use you and escaping NI tax. But these people are better than the ones not working and taking our tax in the name of benefits by cheating. Anyway its not legal.
Deportation go to eat in their home country
Louise Severn Haha, when no one pays tax, then no ones get nothing, don't steal public funds. If we are responsible citizens, then we have all rights to fight for our pay gap.
Let us be right first.
That's why lots of vulnerable people are still queued inspite of fake ones benefited.
I feel sorry for this people. They are hard working, they need to be legalized, and give them stable jobs.
I am not just talking about UK, its every where, the dedicated workers must be treated well and they need to meet ends, have basic needs.
Not stealing what a joke. Stealing work from people that can work in the UK. Stealing tax not being paid. Doing work under the table will destroy the system and cost you more in the long run
I’ve done fencing with an Albanian chap proper proper grafter he can dig like a man possessed and mix cement by hand just as quick as a cement mixer. Top lad
Wish I could get a job even like this bud
But I'm British i can't get a job I'm so depressed 😞 😪

Cant knock these guys for trying, i dont think i could go to another country and stick it out like that.
I Want To Do The Sex On You Yeah their mental strength is amazing. Stuff I obsess over seems so tedious in comparison.
Not a shock to anyone it's as been normal thing now for time
I did, around 25 years ago. Difference is, like many at the time I moved from the decaying Thatcherite economy to one with a proper welfare state and properly enforced laws to benefit all levels of society. Oh and a functioning industrial base helps no end. It was tougher for some than it was for others, but nowhere was it as extreme as this. I never used the welfare state directly, but that's the thing - a functioning welfare state pushes the bar up for everyone.

Yeah frig everyone else....So glad you’re feeling blessed! 🙄
It's easy to condemn people as a group however when you see the individual like Steve your heart goes out to them realising that they are really just trying to make a living like the rest of us.
You’re right we must never judge people as a group it’s very dangerous everyone is an individual.
She’s brilliant. She’s so unlike the typical old school bbc documentary filmmaker that people seem totally relaxed with her and she can get amazing footage.
I'm speechless. But I'm thinking most of us are still lucky to have home, eat and sleep comfortably. Thumbs up for that guys who can stand the situations.
Gustavo Woltwann they chose that life
"Thumbs up for that guys who don't kill us because we don't give a fuck about them"
***** no being a low paid illeagle immigrant is a choice though
Debora Kosutova yeah in their own countries they could
Vanpeado 5 They made this decision you idiot because governments are corrupt in many eastern countries and they take all the money. There is no benefits, minimum wages are lower, most of the time it's hard to find a job... I hope one day that situation would happen to you and i wonder what would you do? Just live on money that would be enough for shelter & some food?

As some one who has had 2 companies in the UK back in the 90's and sold all to go to Europe as finding British workers who can actually do 7 hours productively in a 8 hour day was just too difficult and the last two years I only had foreign workers who I paid above the standard rate for their excellent commitment and work. I now live in the Czech Republic and 7 years ago I returned to UK for work. I spent a year there working as a professional driver in a company that had mostly foreigners working for them as many employed British drivers would often turn up late for work, or not at all. Often they would work until they had earned what they needed for the week and then would turn down jobs. I often drove for up to 18 hours in a 24 hour period ( which is illegal) and took on as many jobs as I could. After a year I returned to CZ and bought a house for cash. I have worked in a company that painted aircraft in the UK and many of the workers were from Europe as the Brits that managed to get employed often did not last longer than two days and their smoke breaks got more numerous as they lost their appetite for the work. Sanding down a 747 for 12 hours at a time is hard work and Brits don't like hard work even though the wages were about £700 to £900 a week. As far as benefits go, the UK should make a change to the law so that if you are on benefits (unemployed) you should work for the council for three days a week cleaning streets, painting and repairing council property, mowing council lawns and sidewalks, etc. and if you have a disability then you can work on a PC or behind a desk or at a help center run by the council.
You seem smart... so use your brain.
These people waiting in the corner are obviously not Romanian. Romanian people are either seasonal agency workers, or come here with their families. Until Brexit actually happens, Romanians have the same rights to live and work in the UK as we do. 9:03 Steve may be Hungarian, but he sounds Italian to me, and he is definitely a paid actor. 10:47 I may go there and take some of these compost bags... No security guards... What do you think? LOL! 11:48 Antidote Productions is a super low budget (£2 total shares) micro-company and filed for insolvency in 2018. Livvy Haydock is probably an unpaid apprentice using her own car... Notice the steering wheel at 0:28. Fake news!
@jimbojim
Who said that British workers don't work hard? The problem is that all the good ones are taken. There is no difference in pay between real Romanians and British workers in the UK. Only illegals work for less because they have no choice.
@jimbojim
No! We need them here. We need workforce to compensate for our low productivity. We have around 600,000 illegals to send home, and that's plenty.
@jimbojim
It's not a secret... Automation increases productivity but requires long term investment (bank loans). The other way to do it is by employing more people. People are slower and cost more money on a monthly basis, but require minimal upfront investment. Combining the two is how companies create well paid jobs. CNC operators for example.
This presenter looks like a younger version of Shirley out of eastenders 😂😂
Yesssss!!! 😂 been trying to remember who she reminds me of!!
SHE DOES. I THOUGHT SHE WAS AN EXTRA FROM EASTENDERS. HARD LOOKING BIRD AINT SHE.
You right
I like Shirley, she's tough old goat 😅
The fact that these men stand on the road side for hours a day to provide for their loved ones, in a country that can be hostile and unwelcoming towards their very presence is admirable (I can only imagine the amount of verbal abuse they likely receive on the regular); plus when considering the vast majority of people who sign on for a living, seem to feel it's an unmanageable or unreasonable task to attend their weekly/ biweekly scheduled appointments at the job centre on time. Who's jobs are they stealing.. When our 'job seekers' don't actively look for work and can't commit to a 15 minute appointment let alone hold down a 9-5 Monday through Friday.
Shouldn't have axed the channel tbh.. how the BBC expect to make any money of ad revenue i don't know. So many talented actors made a career by starting of on this channel.
Layla Hassan No it's online. If you click on the channel it says that it has moved online.
Tom Noname it is online and still quiet popular
Talented actors? What, where?
TV licence goes to the BBC
So your moaning because a peado company isn't making money ? Do a simple check on google on how many peados has been found from the BBC and how the BBC covered up and known about them . The whole of the BBC should be shut down
This has always happened here in Texas. We used to buy them bottles of water in the summer. They have to stand in the sun in 100 degree weather for hours hoping for work.
So why can't the regular homeless take to this, and work off-books?
Dreaded88 because begging works
Because theyre dirty junkies who are good for nothing
They won't hire them they want the illegals they think they work harder and can use and abuse them because they r illegal they work them most likely 10-12 hours a day most ppl that can work legally wont take that shit and they treat the illegals like shit cause they can they won't report them casue they r illegal
I watched the homeless documentary last week. Husband and wife was on smack. Having six shots each a day. That is £120. 😡😡😡😡😡. The money come from begging. 😭😭 And spent on drugs instead of a house.😵😵😵😵😵
Most have mentall illness
This is going on in every town up and down the UK and the greatest mystery is, how the only people who don't see it happening are the authorities.
Not being funny, but i'm an electrician and this sort of site is pretty normal. Not like the show sites you see on tv where everyone wears high vis and hard hats. Its a working demo site so yeah, this is nothing special.
Exactly. Pretty sure that guy was doing a soft strip demo job. All the gas and electric is turned off, no structural removal. Just copper pipes, doors, carpets etc, so he's not in any danger. The presenter and production company have probably never done a hard days work in their lives, so they wouldn't know.
West Yorkshire .
bcuz u pay taxes
Dankady Bong because he is in West Yorkshire. In London an apprentice gets £130 after tax. But the rent and all expenses are sky high.
I thought the same thing when that women was trying to make it sound like working on a building site with plaster everywhere is "horrible work conditions". It just needs shit moving around and sweeping up.
Its the lack of PPE, Health and Safety and regulations with these people that is the problem. If they lose a limb they dont have a leg to stand on.. no pun intended >
160 pound a day working?..
That is not bad at all.
160 a month rent - 100 food. 800 a week (5 days) 3200 a month - 260 = 2940 a month.
Good money shit life. Shove that
More like 160 a week
I earn 60 to 70 a day. What????????
Its not everyday
Jason Melvin they probs work 15 hours
if its this easy to "investigate" then why is it so hard to control?
Because they don't want to control it as much as they want to control the medias portrayal of the problem.
Very true it’s the same with scammers the media located the scammers in India confronted them they ran they came back to the uk and spoke to the department that deals with fraud and tore into them because they couldn’t come up with any excuses as to why they found them in one day they don’t have the resources to tackle bank fraud once it’s out the country they drop the case because it cost to much to continue it
@@Bella-e3x with that kind of thing its just because the authorities in India don't want to do anything about it, theres no benefit to them
Take the analogue "if it's so easy to see a problem, why is it so hard to fix", you are implying that it should be AS easy to fix, but things are never that simple, especially when it comes to dealing with real people with real lives. Tell me, how if it's so easy to see the effects of poverty and war on the world, why isn't it so easy to fix?
Because they get a "tip off" in advance when the border force are arriving to check their immigration status.
360 a week in your hand, 60 quid rent. he is doing better than most,
aye
yes
they are taking 140 £ a day?? is that right? i think they made a mistake!!!
Fuck me he’s got more money than me 😂😂
And they get the benefits too
Persecute people for working, but rewarding people for siting on they're asses and get free money.
Tyson King right on
That's because this sort of work takes jobs from other people because the employer doesn't want to pay proper legal wage. This sort of work means they don't pay tax or even put much back into the economy because it is just sent overseas. They deserve to be persecuted because they are breaking our law and taking away from our country without giving back.
Tyson King A friend of mine from the uk sits on his ass all day playing video games. Like what does he get? Free house and free money??
+3Helium3 but the employers should be the ones getting persecuted, not the workers.
They are both breaking the law, so to punish one and not the other would be unfair.
This was going on years ago before migrants starting coming here.
Is it worth it to live in the U.K. if you’re going to end up living in these squalid conditions?
This is it...
U.K bombed their homeland. What do you think?
@@gold6813 Britain bombed Romania did it 😂
Jees these BBC productions! "I don't want to approach them cold" shows a shot of her talking to the newsagents - with probably about a dozen production crew hanging about. Same as later when the Romanian goes off to talk to her somewhere quietly - shows shot of them getting into the car. Picture how that scene would look to a passer by. They are using top of the range camera equipment, there wont be less than 6 people around that camera and there will probably be a separate sound unit. Yeah real subtle BBC.
I can't figure out how the police can't find these ppl but the documentary ppl can
Thats a normal site, saying its very dirty its a construction site what do you expect

Tedzilla wish. I eerned. 130 a day I'm English full cs card so no chance I'm legal fuck the Rumanions keeping wages shit
Darren Richardson Maybe there's a reason your wages are shit, can't always blame the Rumanions hahaha
***** It might be because our mate, Dazza, can't even spell Romanian. I know grammar and spelling aren't a huge issue these days, but it does say a bit about overall intelligence. Judging but Dazs use of full stops, commas, and spelling, he's not got much. Foreigners don't contribute to our countries downward spiral, its going to shit due to loads of factors, don't just pass the blame along the easiest route.
Darren Richardson it’s easy to blame other people. Blame yourself instead for not getting better every single day
This has been happening in the states for years.
Years? That's been happening for centuries.
Diego De La Mota it's a girl bro she dosent know left from right
These Romanians get every where
The sad reality is that many Romanians come to the UK because of the system in Romania and the corrupted government. Unless you're born in a well off family you have very little there. My parents used to live in a 1 room apartment with my nan and myself. Now we are here, living a nice life and getting good education unlike what would've happened in Romania. I've been here since I was 7 yo, 8 years ago and going back to romania to see my friends shows a lot of change. Every year the buildings lose colour, buildings rotting with families living in them, theft and corruption on the daily. Its genuinely horrible. And while I dont agree with the thousands of immigrants coming here, and a need of a system is high, I still think that the EU should track down on all of this and sort a lot of eastern Europe out before entire countries collapse. Currently, many hospitals, schools and entire jobs are in extinction due to the amount of people working abroad, and choosing to leave their home country for a better life.
this is literally nearly all the same as me, romanian, moved when i was 7, came from poor family etc. etc.
the sad thing is that a lot of these people who come to these countries for illegal work, are leaving countries where they have it better. not always, but there is such a thought in the rest of the world that anything in one of these 1st world countries is better than home, when in reality, it's like this.
Has anybody got the time please

JOEL MLG kirwan poor guy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
these guys are doing more than most people who go to the real Job Centre!
Leer Wesen perhaps that's because employers would rather employ people like this that will work for less than the minimum wage than a British person who expects minimum wage or higher employers prefer foreign labour because it's cheap
I wouldn't call £60 a day 'cheap'. I know many legal job seekers who would love to be earning that sort of money! It's all backward and so is your comment.
So he works illegally no wonder our wages are low and this lot send the money home so they don't even put the money back into the country.
What gets me is that the reporter or the BBC seem to think that this is separate from the system. No! It is the system. It is the differential, it is the lack of care, it is the greed and it can be traced right back to how we are all treated like a commodity. It's not alien to our reality- it is all our reality.
You are right it is the system. You hear that you are protected in established business (employee insurance) let anything happen to you while at work. There is the Modern day slavery bill. The Brits can only be jealous of the Arabs and the Russians who are increasing the house prices in London. Claiming people are coming here to take away jobs. A wealthy Arab doing cleaning in London and sleeping rough? which jobs are people taking the ones we have just seen in the clip.
I've given up on feeling like it's entirely wrong for people to do this when they are desperate to find a way for themselves. OUR GOVERNMENT and that which is BEYOND IT PULLING STRINGS is the actual corruption. Things could be so different but we are enslaved. Even the middle classes are being taxed out of existence. There is nothing left in this country to respect in terms of the system save the selfless ones who work to serve us like the nurses teachers postmen servicemen etc yeh and even some of the police who 'get it' (not many these days).Unfortunately much of the time, to effectively perform roles like this in our society you must be an invested stake holder who buys the lie for the most part. Take a look around. Have you seen how many homeless people are on the streets now, how many vacant soulless drug addicts who make up one of the worst epidemics to hit these shores there are, - staring blankly into the abyss with that familiar look of apathy and want of oblivion. It's bad, it's judgment and it's set to get worse. Buckle up!!!!!!
@@onthebeat4466 well that is a hot mess of a comment.
Russians are coming in and buying property. Our anger over them is Labour let them in claiming there would be a trickle down effect which idiots like you probably believed. Fact is when a millionaire drinks a cup of tea they have one... Not 50,000 cups. When they buy a car it is just one.
Then there is the fact that usually they are non-doms, and therefore don't pay tax.
My uncles all undercut the English when doing work. Willing to get paid cash in hand. Taking all the overtime they could and not letting anyone else put their name down for it. In the end people hated them because they had families to and could use some extra money over xmas. I know that my family did not integrate. There is give and take like there is with culture. You cannot just take take take.
It isn't slavery. Those guys are earning £350 per week. Which is not bad for work that requires no education or training. The housing will not be an English landlord - which many many many many many TV Shows - including ones by the BBC - have shown this to be the case. In fact they exposed that landlords from Singapore refuse to let to Chinese or Indians. As well as exposed one Indian that was doing this to illegal immigrants. He told the housing officer (who is black) for Hounslow to "go home" and she replied "to Tottenham?" and he got done for poor living conditions, safety issues regarding the electrics and also having 27 people in a 3 bedroom flat only rated for 3 permanent residents.
So forgive us for seeing that Russians and Arabs come into London, funding and investing in "regenration" schemes that buy up affordable housing and turn it into luxury apartments costing millions each.

that's what i thought, i think they made a mistake
Not 120£ .. they get 60-70 £ a day .. few years ago was 50 £ a day..
Yes, £120 a day is more than a supply teacher in many areas of the country 😂
30
The worker said he makes £60-70 a day. That’s about £17k a year, assuming he works Mon-Fri.
wow, they make more than me and I have a normal desk job!
rent rates are the issue in Britain...
roxanar exactly!!
They risk much more too. If there was a legal job with rights and protections undeniably they would take it. Life is fragile working unprotected. So the desk job (I have the same - a desk job) is sheltered and I would rather pay taxes and contributions to get the protection provided by laws. Beyond anything this is everyone's desire. They meet the demand of employers wanting to cut corners and take from the tax payer and ultimately being the only winners in this illegally.
The amount of money these guys are saving trust me they are better off they most people who pay full rent council tax water rates etc etc.. I don’t feel sorry for them at all they come here grind for 6-12 months and go back home with thousands and thousands of pounds and build a massive house don’t feel sorry for these people they got better clothes and phones than you do
neil eastell No they can’t. If they’re illegal immigrants they’d be sent straight back home. The reason they’re working off the books is because they don’t have visas. As soon as they make an application for benefits they’d be investigated and then shipped out the country.

Stacey Dooley would not be seen dead in Primary not Mother Stacey.
She a thousand times better than Stacey.
I can't believe that people who do illegal things are being arrested and charged - what is the world coming to?
I don't think you can draw the link between these daily cash in hand jobs to the places these people are living. Clearly they decide to live in such cheap accommodation so they can send as much money home, but if they do have that kind of cash daily they could try and find a house to lodge in or houseshare - not every landlord checks what work you're doing as long as you can pay the rent. It's unstable work but so is a lot of zero hour work and casual jobs. The underlying issue is how long it takes our government systems to process immigrants and often they cannot work until its processed under the official channels. That's what has happened with Afghan refugees having still to wait to work, even very highly skilled individuals.
I adore Livvy, she comes across as so down-to-earth, hard-working and honest and we need more women like her in this world

And better than begging in the streets
@Jake Dean the first intelligent reply - far too many eastern European racist idiots making comments here against people in this country. The people in London have been extremely welcoming, so it is is weird reading all these comments against Muslims, Pakistanis and Indians. The very groups which have been very vocal in support of EU citizens, even the Mayor. A very big mistake I believe. Also many recruitment agencies promote jobs in the EU before giving a chance to local people, and rent is no problem when 50 of them are living in a house never mind the local council tax they don't pay. I could go on, but March is fast approaching, so problem solved.
Cause there's no jobs left
I have a computer science degree I have worked for six years in four different companies I’ve got fired multiple times because of my dyslexia and now I have hardly any support.

My Lad works all day on a farm he is 17. £5 an hour does the work same as the men, very hard work. a pair of boots only last three months overalls about the same. and they are not supplied. so who is paying £196 a day to a man breaking rubble with a hammer?
Someone who knows how dangerous it is
So your lad is working illegally then? He should be on minimum wage. Mug
£130 for a days work if you say a working day is 8 hours that's £16. An hour, that's nearly double the London living wage. And your questioning how they afford to live and saying they are getting under cut? I would be financially better off doing what they are doing.
They will never get 130£ a day!!! Lies !! 70 £ is maximum they will get a day!!

They are doing a good job, it was the Irish in the 1950s, the Jamaicans in the 1960s, Asians in the 1970s, they will integrate and new people will come in next decade, someone who needs a hand for a day or two can't hire someone legitimately, cash in hand saves money for the customer and gets the job done quickly,

@@pepsworld8391 Its people like these who keep the country moving forward, they fill a gap that many people can't, they are usually single and only need enough cash for them self for one day at a time, the country needs them more than they need the country. . .
The fact rogue landlords are complicit to this dirty business is beyond belief
Those employers and landlords who manipulate and victimise these illegal workers I believe are 10 times worse than the illegal workers. If they weren't demanded so much, then I feel that it won't be as so common
Obviously theres going to be demand for work you idiot, they get it because they take buttons bring it home then it goes further while people born over here will be overlooked.
Junior Soprano My idiot self thanks you for your enlightenment.
Yeah! These workers are just trying to live.
It's demand and supply. The employers see a gap in the market for people who want to work but don't have the skills to justify the high regulation health and safety legitimate jobs open to most Brits and the few Eastern European migrants who have enough skills. Hence, these low ball jobs are available in abundance for the low skilled and desperate.
Why would someone live a beautiful country like Hungary to suffer in the UK. London is such a cold place
Well UK is a beautiful nation it just depends where you go.
Yeah, I'm sure they have tons of shithole areas like the U.K has. Every country has. You're not going to expect to see paradise in the poor areas of Hungary neither. Probably even worse than the U.K.
Ireland to rejoin the United Kingdom uk is a big shithole

What angers me is how insurance companies can charge extortionate rates for insuring staff for small businesses. Employment law in the UK stinks, the education system also.

Those who rant about immigrants fail to realize that so many of them have no control over being born in either war torn or desolate places and that the human survival instinct kicks in and they are willing to do virtually anything to have shelter, food and money. Though I've never been an immigrant, I've heard many of their stories and they are basically all the same. People who are desperate to get out of the situations they're in and live just like everyone else. Can you fault for someone for doing something illegal? Yes. Can you fault them for doing what literally any other human would do? No.
May GOD bless them all who are suffering homeless every human deserve a nice warm sleep
Whilst it's tough for these illegal people, I also worry about the people who have hired the builders to begin with and who have no idea they are using people who possibly don't have the right experience/knowledge - is this why so many people end up with botched construction work and end up having to hire other people to repair the damage??
I used to get so many contracts in my country just fixing after these labourers from eastern europe. Bricks and tiles they know, but paint and carpentning/building techniques is a goddamn disaster.
My brother in law, living in South West London, quite a well healed chap decided that my life long expertise, up to date regulation qualification in electrical contracting was not to his taste or wallet so he employed an alternative ‘contractor’ from Poland to refurb his £2,000,000 house with a total and complete rewire. Well after the fire I’ve not had chance to speak to him, I’m too busy now.
They are eu citizens, and yes they have papers, they don't speak English and find it hard to integrate in to British working life or environment, they are not all criminals, but very very hard working people who are being extorted and underpaid by British cut throat hustlers who run car washes and construction labour tasks and petty criminality but England does in fact benefit from these peoples hardship but people find it believe but they don't really understand economy and principals
You forget to mention that they are trafficked by their own people, and usually employed by illegal immigrant-run operations. They contribute zip to local economies, with criminals pocketing the money they generate. Great way to turn the UK in to an overcrowded, filthy sink-hole. Just keep the undocumented labour coming, and put a human face on it. But let's just forget the poor UK people. Apparently they don't count!
@@heathsavage4852
They are not Romanian, and if they really have ID documents they will be fake.
Don't be naive people...
What does England benefit from their labour? They pay no taxes and send all the money back to their own country.
@MAkM
Bullshit! Income Tax and National Insurance are automatically paid by the employer. Polish workers contributions are wasted to pay benefits for our lazy benefit scroungers. Haters will always hate of course.
@Nathan T
Cash in hand means that the employer is breaking the law. Collection of Employee Tax and NI is the responsibility of the employer. That's the law.
Brexit should sort this out !
I've lived this life for a year in Spain.Of course Spain is different, but trust me , it was tough.

How are these illegal immigrants if they're here from the EU (Romania, Bulgaria etc.)? All EU citizens have freedom of movement
Fuck the EU
Adam Apple they r tryna avoid tax
they're clearly not Romanian or Bulgarian, they're arab.
@BFMason Are you for real? Schengen zone has nothing to do with free movement. No wonder Brexit happened when half of the population does not even know what they voted for.
this guy is romanian gypsy.
Hi!
Most of you have an wrong idea of Romanians, we have jobs and diffrent diplomas, we go to college or university.
If you don't know, in Romania, the lowest pay on a day is around 15£, the rent is about 200£ and the minimum wage is 300£, after you're paying rent and other cost of living, you don't have money for food. In every country are illegal workers, not only in Romania, every one wants more for their family to live better.
I don't undersand why you're so mean. Some people really want to work and get the job done.
Are you gonna tell me you will not leave your country for a better payment? That's a lie. If you will stop crying about illegal workers and stuff like that and acctualy do something for people like them, the world will be a better place.
Have a nice day!
lies
That was a nice post honesty but the thing is ( and I know people say certain people wont do the jobs that illegal immigrants do ) but we live on a SMALL ISLAND and even though i hope these people do have better lives in the Uk , Britain wont be Britain in 20 years time........ when most immigrants succeed THEY ONLY GIVE WORK TO THERE OWN ORIGIN ,and it continues , to as I say the uk will not be the uk in 20 years
@@aleh3841 you dont know what you are talking about. Check the statistics. Unskilled foreigners do that but most of them they speack the language and they are skilled workers. And pay tax. I pay 5000 tax,2400 car insurance ,4800 rent. Per year. All this money will stay in uk. I worked and studyed really hard to become a bus driver. I have at least 20 Romanian friends here and they are all working. Scumbags are of all nationalities with different styles of not working and making money.
@@aleh3841 i dont know what to say, usually people working in construction are like that. Maybe you had bad experiences wirh them but they are not all like that.
I completely agree, people a have misconception with what human nature is. Man made borders will not stop humans from exercising a core human function like changing your circumstance to better ensure the survival of themselves and their offspring be it changing your environment or otherwise.
The British should know this better than most as they enslaved and plundered a considerable amount of the world to improve their own circumstances and they weren't even as grim as the realities many of these people are facing.
Humans a reacting to people illegally crossing boarders and not why they have a need to do so. Many may argue the situation in those peoples countries is beyond the jurisdiction so cannot change it, but that is irrelevant because it's still a reality for those migrants.
I wanted to go to UK very badly but with the Visa issue I ended up not going but now I’m thankful I’m working and looked after my kids nicely 👏👏👏
Go Canada its better
At least these guys are hard working people ! And not involved in crime.

this is so heartbreaking they all just want a better life and to help their families
yes but it makes it worse for the natives this drives down wages
it also results in large amounts of money be funneled out of the country
Why is the Police not swooping down and demand their immigrant status ?? Those that stood by the roadside.
Probably too busy catching theives, murderers and pedos to go and stop a bunch of people who are trying to get an honest days work instead of stealing.
better pay than min wage jobs in the areas i live in and you wonder why so many stay on benefits. its not just these types, it the people housing them making tons of money, its the employers getting cheaper labour. When you hear about farmers complaining bout leaving the EU cuz they will lose their workers, bollocks to them, they pay agencies like £10 an hr for people and the agencies choose to pay people min wage. Cut out the middle man and these farmers can give a decent pay to Uk people. All i see now is zero hour contract and apprenticeships for jobs that take 5mins to train someone on but clearly just used for cheap labour, its sick
That's closer to the mark.
@capitalism
true
It's a vicious circle.
She's milking this a bit much. Working in the building trade these guys are no more exploited than, British workers. They get paid the same as we do and work in the same conditions.
The living conditions are awful but that's because they don't want to pay for proper accommodation so they can send money home. It's not like they just don't earn enough to do it, they won't accept being paid less than an English person working alongside them so they are paid the same, cash in hand work is better paid than agency work doing the same work so where's the outrage at young British men being exploited in the same way?
If they can afford to live legally but choose to live in awful conditions to save themselves money then that's their choice. Plenty of young people are forced to do the same thing spending almost all their money on rent barely making enough to live on. it's part of moving up the ladder for a lot of us who leave home at a young age and start a career.
70£ a day is what I took home in 2019 after working 7h-17h as a legal European construction laborer...10£ would go to the agency and 10£ for the Queen and 1h lunch not paid.

Get them working for 35 quid a day
they are not actually working illegal they are allowed to work within the EU ( romanians and hungarians ) the one braking the law is the guy piking them up because he is not giving them a payslip
‘I don’t want to approach these men cold, so I’ll go into this shop for a heat first’
That's been going on for years in the uk.I know a place in Ilford where they wait.Most get £30 a day no tax.Its like the sheds people rent out for people to live in has been going on for year's.The uk is getting near now to a broken economy it's 1.3 trillion in debt and rising.Over 90% of income tax goes to paying just the interest on it to the central bank
you think that's bad ? I know Romanians that work for £20 a day that's good
Van Banterslovechild that's shit wtf you on about its below average
Zuby HD they all work illegally in a car wash for like 12 hours a day
Van Banterslovechild the money is below average I didn't ask where they worked.
Zuby HD yes you didn't ask me but I'm giving you an explanation as to why it's so low
Vanpeado 5 I just don't understand why they have to work illegally when Romania is also part of the EU. Which means they can get jobs legally.
At least he is working hard for his family and not stealing or selling drugs , I think its perfectly justified .many people take things granted but these people actually are thankful for everything .
I got a question: how do those illegal immigrant send the money back to their home country considering that they don't have a UK bank account due to their status
a wonder much the bbc gave peter to leave the job spot and give an interview
Kevin Creswell
I wondered the same thing 😂
£5000 a month, what you complaining about, that's cheap rent for London
There is a lot of misinformation. Romanian citizen do not need work permit till EU laws are applicable. Most of the Romanians I know have a humble background and work hard for better life. They are working perfectly legal. It is the duty of employers primarily to deduct and pay taxes on their behalf. These employers have varied background from Asians to natives to Jews to muslims all sorts.
if only people born in UK were this hardworking.
I just find it funny that the BBC are doing more then what the authorities are. if they are there everyday why ain't they picked up by them
Earning £120 a day, not paying taxes, i think this girl is worried about the wrong people, try coming up north, theres people paying taxes working 10 hour days earning £80 a day, these guys are choosing to live here and live cheap, give your head a wobble girl
Now that EU citizens do not have freedom of movement (and work) in the UK, but do have 6 months travel visa, this will only increase.
Sometimes highlighting a problem will encourage others to act this way for their own personal gain.
Idk. I keep thinking bout the low paid uk citizens that dont get work and cant compete with illegals since they do pay taxes etc.
That's what capitalism is, if you are a consumer looking for a service which you can find 2 times cheaper would you not pay for it?
and this shit is hapening in all EU :/ saw it with my own eyes... and it will get even more terible with the time passing, and the coming financial colabs and browing new coldwar =( the most people that sufer are older population before they pensions and young folk with low work expiriences which biger companies dont like to amploy. Thats why there is more and more MODERN SLAVERY! and Tyler... most of those "migrants" gave whole famelis in theyr countris too feed...there they pay taxes ... if they dont they go to jail.
