Should go up when the minerals deal with Ukraine goes through, as Musk is allegedly a significant beneficiary ?

Yea but ordinary Americans will not benefit from that, if they get to know that he will be benefiting massively that wil not help his brand either.

After Trump promised to buy Tesla yesterday the share went up just 5% but that is just nothing

Who else is regreting not selling his/her Tesla share? I went from green to red and its not looking better anytime soon.

Not sure buying now is a wise move

Fancy Andrew Tate as PM? Dude wants to become UK prime minister.

Yup when he is done with all the criminal cases against him in Romania and those waiting for him in the UK.

Zahra29:
For the child who has lived 7 years continuously in the UK, she can apply for ILR based on his/her private life. As part of the application she would need to prove that it is unreasonable to expect the child to leave the UK, but this shouldn't be difficult especially as the mother is now permanently domiciled in the UK as a citizen. After 12 months on ILR, she can then apply for citizenship for the child.

The other child is not eligible to apply for status from within the UK as they weren't born in the UK and have lived here for less than the qualifying 7 year period. Options are:

a) wait till the child clocks 7 years residence in the UK and then apply for ILR ( IF the child is still under 18 at this time); otherwise they would need to wait until they have spent half their life in the UK (and are under 25 years old)

b) apply from outside the UK, and if granted the child will should be given ILR

The lady is advised to use a competent lawyer to make the applications so as to get it right first time.

@KOVIC19COVID20, Zahra29 is right and the good thing about this case is that these kids are under 18 and you are a British citizen,

If money is an issue then you can apply for a fee waiver https://visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/product/fee-waiver.

This is not really a serious case because no matter what happened those kids will not be asked to leave the UK.

Google “London tube activist ads”.

People post them to mimic real ads. Of course they get taken down but they often go viral in the interim. I’ve looked this one up and it seems real.

This makes sense, before the authority removes it the social media will have it, I guess that is the whole point of it.

On the subject of Vance shading the UK? According to our resident mealy-mouthed defender of western civilization, he actually did not;

“Kemi Badenoch defends JD Vance over ‘random country’ comments

Speaking to GB News, Badenoch said: “I know JD Vance quite well. I’ve looked at the comments, I don’t think he actually said that! A lot of people are getting carried away. They’re saying loads of things and getting quite animated let’s keep cool heads.

“America is our closest ally and I believe that President Trump and JD Vance want peace, they’re looking after their national interests, we need to do so as well.”

When Badenoch was asked if she therefore believed Vance had been referring to France instead of the United Kingdom, she responded: “I’m not getting into that speculation.” “

https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/kemi-badenoch-defends-jd-vance-over-random-country-comments-390380/

Looks like Badenough is only a warrior capable of talking straight when it comes to care workers, and she’s always definitive about their plans, culture, morals etc etc. When it comes to others she becomes afraid of getting into speculation.

She has to say something, just like Vance she is trying desperately to make sense each she opens her mouth

Can Londoners confirm this? Is this truly in London subway? Lol

1. He is 65 years


2. He is retired but does house constructions once in a while. (Supervision and site manager)


3. Yes, he lives in the house.

Don’t do it

Hello everyone, sorry for the long write up.
I’m in a tough situation and would really appreciate your thoughts.

I’m 25 years old, and ever since I got an unconditional admission offer my father has been determined to sell his only house to fund my travel to the UK. Despite my repeated attempts to convince him otherwise, he insists that this is the best way to secure my future. While I deeply appreciate his sacrifice and belief in me, I can’t help but worry about the risks.

Selling his only home means he will have nowhere to fall back on if things don’t go as planned. And as much as I want to explore better opportunities abroad, I don’t want to see him struggle or regret this decision later.

What would you do in my situation? Do you think this sacrifice is worth it? I’d love to hear different perspectives, especially from those who have been in a similar position or understand the realities of starting over in a new country.

Thanks in advance for your advice!

1. How old is your dad?


2. Is your dad working or running his own business?


3. Is he living in that house?

Hehe.. Lets take emotions out of this. Ukraine needs the U.S.

It was already clear Z wasn't in Trumps good books. He knew that.
No world leader today comes close to Trumps media mastery. Z whose first language isn't English was meeting the American president at the height of his powers surrounded by his lap dogs in the White House. The last thing he needed was getting into a senseless public debate. It was callous. It's like a foreign leader debating the British PM in parliament- what do you expect?

Already, Macron and Starmer had gone before him to smoothen the way. Negotiations had already been made and it was reported all that was left was a signature. The security guarantee or not would have been part of the agreement. If it wasn't there already, a public spat with Trump would not put it in.

Z can disagree with Trump without being antagonistic. Look at when Starmer visited and Vance went on a rant about 'free speech' concerns and how it was hurting American interests. Starmer went diagonal and countered him without any fuss. Lastly, if the first encounter was difficult to watch, I wouldn't be so keen on another- it might just be a victory parade of an emasculated Z.

It wasn't and that is the prob, all the outburst that played out was because they did not get their way behind closed down.

I disagree with you regarding his attitude , he did nothing wrong, Trump and his VP were pissed because they failed to force him to give away that mineral without getting anything in return.

America can leave NATO and weaken their power and influence around the world, China and Russia will occupy the vacuum created

What's really going on in Aviation these days ? Almost every week there is a new incident / accident or near miss around the world but especially in the USA. A few hours ago a FedEx cargo plan made an emergency landing as the engine was on fire ... Are these just random or is there something cynical at play ?

DEI

Greyworld:
Instead of Ukraine to accept Trump's deal they should broker a deal with Russia themselves. After all they are closely related. Adding US to the equation with Trump and Vance as US leaders is not sensible at the moment.

Russia does not want deal or peace, they want to take over Ukraine. Zelenskyy want security from USA in exchange for minerals

kingthreat:
Well he was embarrassed for that. His reply was not intelligent either. It's time for peace, America is not funding the war any further. Let him dress in Ukranian attire or a suit. Not a funny-looking urban wear.

I ask you again.. why was he not embarrassed that Elon musk shows up in Oval Office wearing t-shirts, jeans and cap? Why did rule apply to Zelenskyy only?

While many of you are shamelessly worrying about suits he is worried about his people getting killed daily

kingthreat:
Perhaps justwise is wiser than the person who had to ask the question below.. Clown believes he is the wisest in a self-opinionated world of his own. Elon Musk is a tech person and wears a suit even if he has to wear a t-shirt. Please on your next visit to a VIP, wear a singlet and short knickers.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjRvR482_FI

The person that asked the question is a well known slowpoke(Brian Glenn) married to another nuisance called Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Since the war started Zelensky has always dress like that, in all his official appearances both home and abroad. Wearing a suit is the lease of his problems. Trump got no prob with that but some nobodies are falling all over themselves asking so irrelevant questions

kingthreat:
The conversation here is about Zelensky. You can refer to the topic's title incase you have drifted.

So you are incapable of supporting your argument with a relevant example? How is Musk dressing not relevant to this topic? The same oval office, the same Trump and official event?

So in your limited single cell,,dressing rule only applies to Zelensky?

kingthreat:
Mr. Justwise, if it is right to dress unofficially to official discussions, then maybe you should create another username on this forum.

Mr kingthreat did many of you complain when Elon Musk shows up in a Tshirt, jeans and a cap in the same white house during press conference with Trump?

Zahra29:
Imagine, Trump's view is that they don't need to guarantee security because Putin respects him and would not dare attack if he, Trump, asked them not to 🙄

How naive.

I don't even mind that the US stands to benefit heavily from the mineral deal. That's life and it's understandable that they want some of their money back. But Ukraine needs that security backstop because Putin is inherently dishonest and sneaky. He would attack US mining companies in Ukraine and then blame Ukrainian forces/militants.

Exactly!! when i first read about this deal on BBC website and the demand for security i thought it will never work because Trump will not be willing to harm his friend Putin.

They wanted to shout down Zelensky, force him to sign the deal and dude refused to be intimidated behind close doors and in front of the press, their massive egos got smashed then you started hearing stupid stuff like...have you said thank to the president today? I made you a tough guy, you don't have the card, you are not a tough guy without America.... bla bla bla

This is a failed robbery

Zahra29:
Agreed. Russia is no real friend, ask Assad who enjoyed Putin's support until it was no longer expedient to him.

There are reports that China's and Russia's intelligence agencies are stealthily recruiting US Federal employees who have recently been fired or at risk. No doubt looking to leverage on their disgruntlement with Trump's adminstration. Soviet spies loading....

To the bolded, Ukraine actually had nuclear weapons but in 1994 it signed up to a treaty with Russia and the West (including the US) to transfer these weapons to Russia in exchange for security assurances to respect its independence and sovereignty. A few years later, Russia, who was one of the parties in the agreement, invaded Ukraine and hasn't stopped.

This is what lead to what happened yesterday, Trump and his VP invited Ukrainian president to sign a deal for exchange for security but when he got to US Trump and his team changed their mind and refused to include security as part of the deal, Zelensky refused to sign the deal and that angered Trump and his team...that anger was what we witnessed yesterday.

Guess who will benefit from the mineral deal? Musk, Tesla battery needs the mineral material and he was pushing behind the scene to get the deal done.

AgentXxx:
Russian is winning this war unless we want a World war 3 which the US isn’t ready for. Plus I think we are only assuming Putin would go for Poland. He didn’t go for Ukraine until they said they wanted to join NATO and we know the Ukrainians and Russians are brothers.

You are uninformed.

Zahra29 has done justice to your inaccurate narrative.

JustAPasserBy:
Donal Trump claimed he cares about Ukraine and how Ukrainians on the forefront are dying.
If Zelensky surrenders today, will Russia still kill Ukrainians? Hell NO.
War ends.

Peace reigns.
Life goes on…

Reading your post few things comes to mind....

Is either you are not a student of history..or

You don't have much life experiences..or

You are just trolling...

American overthrown Saddam Hussein, control pretty much all aspect of Iraq for yrs but today where is American in Iraq?

American pushed Taliban out of main cities of Afghanistan, invested billions of $$$$, put in place their preferred president, occupied Afghanistan for more than 15yrs and today how far?

Bashar al-Assad with the help of Russia, killed, displaced and pushed the rebels out of main Syrian cities and today how far?

If you think that Russia will win the war and take over Ukraine and peace will reigns then you are on a hard substance.

Justwise, remember our days on spousal visa thread.....

Many banned applicants, strolled back into the UK, before their expiration of their bans.....

Home office, would only delay, but cannot deny...... 😂

They can do both and at the end marriage suffers, how long do you think a couple to live apart while waiting endlessly for HO decision?

Many of these cases end in marriage separation

Regex:
So diplomacy can not implored to mitigate energy cost rise? Abeg make EU get sense oh. Cost of living is costing me the living.

Unfortunately no, Dependency on Russian oil is still a prob, unless a major alternative supplier is found or the war ends..else

With spousal visa, all banned sins are 4given....... 😁😂

How i wish this is true.

Cyberknight:
Mad people. Musk shows up in a Tshirt, jeans and a cap at a so-called Cabinet meeting and no planted journalist asks him why he isn't wearing a suit.

God bless you!!

deept:
How? We can't even guarantee our own security without big brother USA. Aid minister resigns because of cuts to increase spending on defence.

The minister resigned because the cut is from her office but the cut is for a good reason, UK can not be sending aid to the rest of the world while the money is needed for defence back home. Aid to Africa to me is a waste. That resource is hardly going into the intended purpose.

The UK need to stop bending over to America and form a closer bond with EU until that confused human being in the white house lives.
America under Trump is a walking time bomb, he is unstable, irrational, reckless and untrustworthy. Don't expect anything substantial from a convicted criminal.

Regex:
Ontop whose tax? Make una take una time oh.

Sadly if Ukraine is not supported by Europe and Russia wins this war then you will pay even more tax in all sorts of ways. Energy bills alone will go out of control. Russia will not stop there, Poland and many other countries will be next. UK will be forced to take even more people running away from those wars.

Goke7:
It was even more irritating when the vp was reminding Zelensky that he campaigned for the opposition, are they not over the elections they won? Honestly I think Zelensky was even more tolerant, there’s no human in the middle of a war that won’t be pissed

He was as the attack was coming from the two morons and the press, Trump and his bootlicker planned it before meeting got started. Vance wanted to show dad Trump that he loves and care for his ego hence the provocation

kingthreat:
He's being wearing that bullshit everywhere since the war started. Since you are for the war to end, then doesn't it make sense he stops wearing it and so people take him as a president no more the comedian?

If he stops wearing it and starts wearing suits the war will end? Misplaced priorities is the problem here.

Look at Trump and his vp on suits and still act and look stupid
