Stop mayhem
PUBLIC anger at murderous and violent attacks carried out by illegal migrants is rising.
Cases such as the senseless killing of dog-walker Wayne Broadhurst should be shockingly unusual. Tragically, they are becoming commonplace.
Take the horrific news of the past seven days.
Last Friday Sudanese man Deng Chol Majek was convicted of stabbing asylum hotel worker Rhiannon Whyte 23 times in Walsall.
On the same day, a migrant in Bournemouth was jailed for attacking hotel workers with a blade because he was unhappy with his food.
On Tuesday, Mr Broadhurst was stabbed to death in broad daylight in Uxbridge.

Then on Wednesday, a boat migrant was jailed for life for fatally knifing an innocent bank customer in Derby.
This mess has been years in the making.
Successive Governments have woefully failed to secure our borders, while judges and Left-wing lawyers have repeatedly promoted the rights of dangerous foreign criminals above those of the law-abiding public.
Ministers cannot ignore the fury this has unleashed.
Voters are in despair at the failure to properly protect them and will take it out on a Government who fails them again.
The politicians keep saying they are angry, too. It’s not words the public needs. It’s leadership . . . and action.
Sick charges
IT may be an enormous money-pit swallowing £202billion a year.
But NHS chiefs keep finding new ways to squeeze more cash out of the sick.
Hospital parking charges have been a national scandal for years, despite endless empty promises from politicians to curb them.
Now we can add to that never-ending rip-off the decision to charge people for the use of mobile phone chargers.
How perverse that the longer a patient is forced to sit suffering in A&E, the more cash the hospital might rake in from them.
Treating them like cash-cows is disgraceful. Ministers must end this money-spinning racket.
High stakes
TODAY, we report on the terrifying world of black market gambling, where unregulated, criminal sites are preying on unsuspecting Brits.
The big fear is that — if Rachel Reeves sharply hikes taxes on the UK’s heavily regulated bookies — more punters will be driven towards this dangerous Wild West chasing better odds.
For its part, the Treasury will miss out on billions in revenue, since black market sites do not pay a penny of tax.
It’s a lose-lose, Chancellor.
