Queen Elizabeth II has died at age 96 . The royal family gathered at her bedside in Balmoral Castle in Scotland. Britain’s longest-reigning monarch has been planning for her succession for some time. Members of the royal family, including Charles , the longest-serving heir in British history, have increased their responsibilities as the queen’s health has declined.
After Charles' children and grandchildren, the next in line for the throne is Elizabeth's second son, Prince Andrew , who stepped back from royal duties in 2019 amid public outrage over his friendship with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein (in February, he settled a sex abuse lawsuit with one of Epstein's accusers for ...

Since my life, I've been hearing news about this great queen but this is the saddest new I heard ever!

Rip Great Queen, you did UK Great!

“Inflation prints will probably come down in 2023 but we see little room for strong global GDP growth as long as the
global economy is running close to capacity. We expect Europe to take the brunt of the hit, given its exposure to
cyclical industries and large commodity imports.”
“We expect monetary policies to remain tight and price levels to stay high for a number of years, and the European
economies look particularly challenged in this environment.”

“I was in college and determined to lose my virginity so I just grabbed a guy at a party and started making out with him. We went to his dorm, I got my cherry popped, it was fine, mission accomplished. Leaving his dorm the next morning I realized I had no idea what his name was and had to try to find it using the campus directory for that building. He had a roommate so I guessed at which one it was. I ended up telling my friends I’d banged the wrong guy. I was eventually corrected when I was confronted by the guy’s roommate’s girlfriend who’d heard through the small-liberal- arts-college grapevine that I had sex with her boyfriend. I explained and she and I laughed about it and are still Facebook acquaintances to this day.” ― Allison Mick, a comedian in Oakland, California

The United States has excluded Nigeria from its
2023 Diversity Immigrant Visa programme which
is also known as the green card lottery.
nigeria’s exclusion from the programme makes it
eight years in a row that the US ignored the most
populous African country in the world among
immigrants entering via DVL.


The programme is a government lottery program
offering the chance to applicants from Africa and
other continents of getting the United States
Permanent Resident Card.



About 55,000 persons apply for visas to enter the
US through Diversity Visa Lottery (DVL), but the
US in this year’s programme stated that over
50,000 citizens from Nigeria have relocated to the
world’s largest economy for greener pastures in
the last five years.




Nigeria’s the only African country
excluded
According to the instructions in the 2023 DV
programme, Nigeria is the only African country
not included to participate this year.
It says, “For DV-2023, natives of the following
countries are not eligible to apply because more
than 50,000 natives of these countries
immigrated to the United States in the previous
five years.

This is so funny
