Gentlemen! Just wondering what you do when you encounter a squeegee man at a corner. I'm starting to get really annoyed with them, to the point where if I see one up ahead I'll turn off the street I'm on just to not have to deal with them. Any creative solutions?

Run them over. Reverse.

They are probably illegal immigrants. So, reporting them to police will achieve nothing, is it possible to telephone the UKBA? Would they do anything?

I once called the police after seeing 6 Eastern Europeans jump out of the back of a lorry in a lay by on the A500, first question the operator asked was "are you driving? It is illegal to use a phone whilst driving.." Then suggested I speak to the miscreants and gave me an address to pass to them, apparently they were to make their own way to a reception centre.
I couldn't believe my ears.

Why kill free enterprise? Or do we want everyone to work for the NHS?

This sort of free enterprise needs killing - the customer should decide whether to have the work done, not the "supplier".

I make eye contact, wave my hand in a negative gesture and shake my head. They move on.
