      Brexit is awful. But taking fingerprints DNA & photos of immigrants is (sadly IMHO) normal for non-EU ppl. So are remainers wanting to abolish it or just avoid it being introduced for EU nationals? Is it double standards or HUGE ignorance about how the UK treats immigrants here?https://twitter.com/alexandrabulat/status/1030208166510960640 …

      "take their DNA", "prove their worth", "deport all", "give them numbers, they are not worthy of having names" No, these are not quotes from the 1930s. This is the comment section of the Daily Express in 2018 UK, on an article about the status of @The3Million after Brexit. pic.twitter.com/fjeh9RQjjd

      Apparently people have no idea what non-EU immigrants go through.

      As a non-EU immigrant this is interesting to learn. I didn't go through any of this, but possibly it all came in after I arrived here (2006)

          Interesting. So coming from Australia back then it was one application via post with a few passport photos + proof of ID & job offer. No DNA or finger prints or police registration. I recall something about them maybe performing criminal record checks on their end but that was it

          Well, @samhforbes did it more recently. If you're curious if it has changed for Australians we can ask him!

          Except with PhD offer (his case), not job offer, although there might be overlap.

          I dread to think how it has changed. I eventually got my UK citizenship in 2014 (I wasn't going to bother but a friend told me to do it NOW in anticipation of the growth of the far right) & they were bang on. I would not want to try now. UK is a different place.

          I know people doing it now and it's easy enough for them because they are White etc., so I mean personal circumstances are important to take into account too. I did it in 1988 because I had no choice as being stateless is not very good. 😅

          Indeed that's a frightening prospect. I'm sure you're right & it is much easier for white / CW applicants. Even so there's a kind of random kafkaesque cruelty to the HO now. eg. the way they treated @sampendu who is now happily enjoyed life in NZ!https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/dec/29/german-neuroscientist-told-to-leave-uk-residency-application-rejected-monique-hawkins …

          He didn't follow the rules, which I was assuming the person would though. Not I agree with the rules, but most applicants, whether white or not, tend to perfectly follow the rules.

          I did follow the rules but the changed the rules after I submitted my application... Leaving that aside, I never complained about the copy&paste way of how that is done. Many people less privileged than me could easily run afoul & be terrified to death by that - and they were :/
