The UK is being abused

I find the UK Immigration situation very fascinating.

I am not a UK citizen, I was an immigrant. My Visa expires next year if that matters to anyone (2011), however since about a week ago I was classified as an EU Citizen by descent and I wouldn't need my Visa anymore, but I want to say is that I have experienced the UK both as an immigrant and now as an EU Citizen. When I came first time to the UK I was very honest about the time I came for and I put down 5 months, so I was even sort of 'investigated' but it was a very short process (watch "UK Border Force" to see similar cases in the airport), so basically I did everything by the book, even though it was very hard especially in the beginning, however videos like this make me feel like people are making a joke out of this country, and this is not even my country of origin, yet I do respect it but take a look at this:

If you ask for my impression?
- London, the capital city of Britain is no longer a British city.
- People sneak into lorries and if caught they just try it again, without any punishment or law enforcement.
- UK Border Agency are very soft on illegal immigrants, in fact, in a way I feel like the system was much more tougher with people like me, who dedicate so much time and effort to provide documents, money and whatever it takes to be legal here (and I didn't even come here to look for a job! I came here to be self-employed and have my own business here lol!)

In short version, this country (or shall I say Your Country) is being abused, big time. I'm just a person from the outside really, so you don't have to take my comments seriously if you don't feel like you have to, but it's quite sad to see how the system looks nowadays, it looks really bad.

Thats the problem there is such a big gulf between people like yourself who come to this country to work, make a life for yourself and contribute to society as a whole and then on the other side of the coin people who are coming here solely to take the system for all they can, Don't want to intergrate into society and will always see this as someone elses country.

Sadly the govenment is too soft to do anything about the abuse to the system and "political parties" (in very loose terms) like the BNP cannot/will not differentiate between the scroungers and the people wishing to contribute to society

Its also nice to see someone who has been both sides of the fence so to speak.
