The backlog of unresolved immigration cases
has grown to more than 500,000, a group of influential MPs has said.
The Home Affairs Committee said that at present rates it could take 37
years to clear.
In its latest report into the system, the cross-party committee
questioned whether splitting up the UK Border Agency would change anything.
Which judging by these figures it clearly
hasn’t, how can there be a backlog of this size, surely when the total figure
topped 50,000 the powers that be would have got together and said maybe we
should make some inroads into this and get that number down.
What’s even worse about this is the
Home Office disagrees with the figure and says the backlog is only around
460,000, as if saying that would make everybody suddenly go oh it’s only
460,000 that’s not so bad I’m sure they’ll clear that in a jiffy, 35 years to
you and me.
