Blogger’s Note: Immigration Enforcement is a shady profession – riddled as it is with continuous allegations of racism. The odd reality of Immigration is that those who fulfil this role possess absolutely NO policing authority over anyone who is a legal citizen of the UK. It is like a Traffic Warden – who only possesses the limited power to sanction drivers who are illegally parked – but have NO authority over all the other drivers who are NOT parking illegally. Ironically, a friend of mine – an ethnic Chinese person originally from the British colony of Singapore – who used to work in the London Borough of Newham, was told that Immigration Officers are tasked with standing outside busy London train stations and stopping to question “anyone who looks foreign” – on the off-chance that one or two might be illegal immigrants. Under the New Labour government [1997-2010] (a rightwing aberration) – an entire TV series was filmed featuring the so-called “Border Force” persecuting people of colour and making their lives a living hell (a similar programme was made covering UK airports which often featured Chinese, Vietnamese – and other Asians – being stopped, handcuffed (often violently) and bundled into backs of vans, etc, usually for possessing herbal medicine and unfamiliar food. Although most were released without charge – being innocent tourists – the nature of these programmes was merely about the “spectacle” of it all, rather like the Coliseum in ancient Rome. White British would receive a full half-hour daily dose of State-sponsored racism – packaged as “protecting” the cohesion of UK society. Ratings boosts would be gained by arresting non-White people on their wedding day – so that they could not become “British” through marriage (this ancient right has subsequently been removed). This reminds me of how Hitler’s regime would send letters of “thanks” to parents who agreed to have their disabled children “euphonised” – explaining in detail how much “money” this action had saved the Nazi German State. Now, it transpires, that all these rumours regarding Immigration Officers being “corrupt” are true! On top of this, but not included in this list of indictments, is the sexual abuse that immigrant women and girls face at the hands of degenerate State minions. ACW (24.12.2025)

Six immigration officers have been charged with offences following an investigation into thefts from migrants and money laundering.
Five of the officers are facing charges including conspiracy to steal and misconduct in public office, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said on Tuesday.
All six have been charged with money laundering offences.
Head of the CPS Special Crime Division Malcolm McHaffie said Besmir Matera, 36, Lee-Ann Evanson, 42, John Bernthal, 53, Ben Edwardes, 45, Jack Mitchell, 33, and David Grundy, 43, have been charged “following a Home Office investigation into thefts from migrants and money laundering between August 2021 and November 2022”.
All six defendants will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on January 29.
Mr McHaffie said: “Our prosecutors have worked to establish that there is sufficient evidence to bring the case to court and that it is in the public interest to pursue criminal proceedings.
“We have worked closely with the Home Office’s Anti-Corruption Criminal Investigations Unit as they carried out their investigation.”
Matera, of Reigate, Surrey, is charged with conspiracy to steal; misconduct in public office; concealing, disguising, converting, transferring or removing criminal property; obtaining leave to enter to remain in the United Kingdom by deception; and three counts of possession of an identity document with improper intention.
Evanson, of Bracknell, Berkshire, is charged with conspiracy to steal; misconduct in public office; and concealing, disguising, converting, transferring or removing criminal property.
Bernthal, of Welling, south-east London, is charged with conspiracy to steal; misconduct in public office; and concealing, disguising, converting, transferring or removing criminal property.
Edwardes, of Bexleyheath, south-east London, is charged with conspiracy to steal; misconduct in public office; and concealing, disguising, converting, transferring or removing criminal property.
Mitchell, of Dover, Kent, is charged with conspiracy to steal; misconduct in public office; and concealing, disguising, converting, transferring or removing criminal property.
Grundy, of Croydon, south London, is charged with concealing, disguising, converting, transferring or removing criminal property.
The CPS said it wanted to remind everyone that this case is active and it is “vital that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in anyway prejudice these proceedings”.
