Wow these people holding high ranks in government has caused the end of racism and they do not face racism on a daily basis. Fantastic.

You know, I like how people like you pick on one point just to move away from the main conversation to a different debate because they failed to properly read the back and forth and the reason why a quote was mentioned 🙃

ehizario2012:
In truth, do core racists see black Africans and say Chinese, Indians, Pakistani, North Africans etc as the same? Seems they have a special place in their dirty hearts for black Africans especially. Black Africans.

fatima04:
My growing fear about this country especially with kids frequent bullying. Recent case in point that makes it feel we are moving years backward is the Tory donor that *feels like
shooting* a black woman

NezzyMike:
He did and it keeps ringing in my head on this forum...I no fit enter mortgage without being
stabilized first like they did. Life on social media is always dec£itful, nobody fit pressure me

ehizario2012:
He is Nigerian, that's a fact that cannot be denied. His action has not added value to us, and we must condemn it. Other nationals might be doing it, but doesn't mean we should overlook this. The wife might have frustrated him, but violence has landed him in more trouble. Simple.

It's people like this that are giving Nigerian immigrants a bad name in the UK, it's crazy. I know spouses can suddenly develop unimaginable characters (including cheating) when they get to the UK, but domestic violence is never the solution. It's better to let the marriage gradually degenerate (while arranging plan B) and disintegrate eventually rather than be forced to go violent.

LionInZion:
Another option is to send the reference number to the person. If the station has manned ticket booth, your friend will only have to show the staff there the reference and they'll print the ticket for them.

Samguine:
I applied through Germany two weeks ago. Tourist for 3 days. Got multiple entries, 3 months. You can try them. Avoid France (too many applications due to Olympics in the summer and Italy (historically difficult to get).

For interview date, it will be hard to get generally. I used a bot and got a date within 5 hours. However, it was prority and it cost me an extra 90 pounds or so.

Good luck!

ehizario2012:
These amounts are actually exorbitant if true.

lavida001:
1 Nigerian government that is not able to cater for his citizen is the one you are in support for camping and feeding other country.


2 Also how much is visa fee for Americans compare to what we pay here.

3 All i'm saying his we should be entitle to public funds. Maybe not during 1 year of study but as soon as you on graduate visa you should have the right.

lavida001:
No forget to add “you are being rude” .

Thats all they know how to say.

Ukrainian who came here recently are e title to all the benefits but we that pay 16k tuition are not entitled to public funds 😭

Poanan:
an estimate is an estimate. anything based on estimate is based on personal opinion rather than fact. let them come up with real figures from ons.

ReesheesuKnack:
There is no source for this story. The Daily mail is not a reputable source. If the Guardian hasn’t reported it, it didn’t happen. End of story.

hustla:
Their public sabi anything other than to complain and moan and bar hop?

hustla:
They wanted the association

Can assure you no Nigerian thinks about them like that

Gift7428:
Graduate Visa



Is anyone in same shoes as mine?
I applied for graduate visa Jan 4th 2024 , they sent confirmatory email that they intend to make a decision by Feb 29th which is today

Everyone I know who applied with me and after me has received their BRP, in my case no email.
The only email I got from them last week was a link to pay for IHS for my dependent which I did immediately and sent the confirmation.


What is going on with my application and why is mine different?
Can I call them ?

Oyi12:
Morning my people, I have come again with questions please. We recently got a care sponsorship and on the response from home office, it was stated that the applicant could work 20 hours on jobs on the shortage occupation list or the same sharecode. Does that mean that the person could maybe work as an IT or any job for 20 hours if it is on the shortage occupation?

Viruses:
Sometimes when I hear how much some of these companies we admire are owing I'm baffeled.

Imagine say bank dey own credit 😀

profemebee:
We need to learn when to stop back and forth with people who refuse to use facts not emotions..

She has refused to get knowledge about this.. refused to watch the start of this.. even when it is documented and covered by reputable media and new outlets.. refused to have the full context ..

The fact she is making excuses for a terrorist is enough reason to just Pause on the conversation..

We can as well pardon all the teenage murderers cos they're "kids".. free them up and let them run the streets

This is who she is making excuses for

-I would have thought both systems worked together to ensure everyone has experienced legal representation however shallow their pockets are.

- I was a foolish 15yr old at one time. I held some narrowminded views at that time.The brain does not fully develop till your early 20s. She made those choices but noone can say she had full capacity. The consequences are too dire . We havent even tried deradicalisation and rehab.

- Some of the people on this thread have 15 Yr olds. You are a lucky parent if you can place your hand over your heart and swear that your 15 Yr old daughter has enough critical thinking to remain adamant in the face of peer pressure.

- Every family has 1 blacksheep. You all got the same training but in at least 1 of you,it didn't take. Shall we blame your parents then? But 5 other children are highfliers. Some children are just naughty and won't listen.

I was a foolish 15 year old too and na me gangan be the black sheep that year. I did many many things but the thought of going to join a group to murder people en masse never crossed my mind. I don't know about you sha but that's not normal in any way and it's beyond 'naughty'. Crucially, she stayed there and carried on doing what she was doing as an adult, so the argument of being just a 15 year old cannot hold water since she didn't remain permanently at that 'naive' age where she might be afforded the excuse of being a child. In fact, her siblings being high fliers is evidence that she actively set out to be a deviant and a murderer, so the 'oh she just somehow found herself there' case doesn't work. She saw people decapitating people and decided 'yes, that's what I want to go and be a part of.'

Now, what did she do as she grew older? Did she begin to moderate and seek to reverse her actions? No. See the excerpt below from her Wiki page:

The Daily Telegraph reported that Begum had been an "enforcer" in IS's "morality police", and had tried to recruit other young women to join the jihadist group.[24] The report said that she was allowed to carry a Kalashnikov rifle and earned a reputation as a strict enforcer of IS's laws, such as dress codes for women. An anti-IS activist was also reported by The Daily Telegraph as saying that there were allegations of Begum stitching suicide bombs into explosive vests so they could not be removed without detonating.[25]


This, apparently, is what you consider 'naughty'.

- I get yearly training on deradicalisation as part of mandatory training. Radicalisation is a systemic issue . If I was the UK, I would be looking into how they got access to her, who else is affected. Banning her hasn't solved the problem and is a tad performative.

1. She doesn't need to be in the country for them to investigate how she left and did what she did plus that has already been done.
2. it doesn't need to solve the problem fully. Abi will her being in the UK solve it either? It's not performative - it's effective at keeping one terrorist out and every 1 fewer terrorist in the country is a win worth celebrating.

- Realistically, being her neighbour is the safest you can be . It's a win win. If she is indeed a hard-core bad woman, she ll never bomb her home. If she isn't a terrorist, then she won't bomb it either


Someone who traveled to join suicide bombers is who you think will not bomb her home? Lol.


I m here all morning, people. Come and fight. Bolekaja! ( I hope that means come down and fight)

missjekyll:
Everybody has a right to good legal representation. Legal aid is Beans and actually does some good compared to the billions the government has now wasted on Rwanda and PPE.


Unlike in the US, where public defenders are crap, I hear they operate a taxi rank system here where Barristers are not allowed to turn down a case so long as they are next in line.
I love Europe!there was joined up thinking going on at some point in this country .

Chreze:
I see you are awake, any idea if it is needed to add passport photograph to DVLa form. I want to believe it’s just BRP if you are using BRP and nothing more. Right?

Lexusgs430:
It's indeed very strange how all this people wanting her back in UK, don't want her to live next to them......... 🤣😁😜

missjekyll:
1. She was born here, never been to Bangladesh in her life. She was radicalised in the UK at 15 years old ie a child. Why does the UK get to export this frankenstein that they nurtured? I say bring her home ,investigate her part in IS and throw her in jail.

2. Bangladesh has said she will face the death penalty if she enters the country. She is now stateless. The UK knew that removing her citizenship would make her stateless and did it anyway.

3. I am a bit worried as it appears there are 2 tiers of citizenship. An irrevocable and a revocable one.
How many generations down the line will my offspring have to be to acquire this irrevocable citizenship.

These are the 3 major arguments i have heard against the government's position.I havent read her lawyers argument so there may be more.It's a Landmark case and will likely get to the Supreme Court.

I haven't addressed "supporting terrorism" as I believe its too easy to disprove that theory.

justwise:
Years ago this lady's case generated a massive argument here, many Nigerians in this thread supported this terrorist.

I'm glad that the govt won again.

SavageResponse:
How many times will I tell you guys that I don't live in the UK, have never lived in the UK and have no desire to live in the UK or any part of Europe or America for that matter...I prefer to just pop in and out of Europe when business or pleasure takes me there!

BorisJohnson:
Hello people (especially AmEx users).
Can I transfer or donate my Amex BA companion voucher? I do have one companion voucher which will expire in March.

Also, I just maxed out my avios for the year (I spent £12,000 and have got a new companion voucher. Will any more spending accrue more avios for me? Or I have to wait till June to start getting avioses?

ReesheesuKnack:
So, after coming here, wanting to diss someone, you ended up making mockery of yourself.

1. You certainly have zero 0️⃣ understanding of what tautology is, or what it means to say something is tautological.
Granted, OP used the word ‘Borrow’ instead of ‘Lent’. Is that tautology? Hell NO!

You certainly don’t know what ‘tautological grammar’ means.

Sorry sir/maam.

ToshoTosin:
Hello everyone,
I have a question, my bro and his wife have been with us since they came in September.
I found out they already registered to vote on our address without asking or informing us. They don't pay council tax or rent
I cannot find a way to remove them, will this be an issue for us? Since it's just two people we said are living in the house?.

Thank you.

Zahra29:
Playing devil's advocate: An explanation could have been sought and provided via Teams or email or even whatsapp ,which could be used as evidence in court to prove that it was spurious in nature.
What if the employee had been admonished via teams etc so there was evidence of a warning e..g
"please try to make every effort to attend the team meeting in the future or let us know in advance"
Witnesses could also be brought in to corroborate the employer's account.

It's not necessarily a black and white victory for the employee. And the reality is that most employees do not have the capacity to take an employer to court for various reasons, so the employer can easily get away with a less than kosher reference.

However, I agree that it could turn into a legal headache which is partly why larger organisations don't do detailed or subjective references - not worth the hassle or risk.
