I don't see any EU countries making efforts to find and remove people who have been living there for years. Maybe it's happening in places like Poland and Hungary where the domestic politics are different. OTOH, in the UK you have some parallel with people (especially citizens of other EU countries) running into obstacles with the Home Office, but even so the Home Office is nothing like ICE. There is a cruelty for the sake of cruelty here that I don't see there.
