If Blacks are seen as demi God in Russian then that simply means that Russians are still living in pre-civilisation era. A white man in Nigeria will not be seen as a demi God and Nigerians will not be rushing to take picture with a white man because we are used to them, nothing special. |

ojtopsy: Good afternoon House. please I need the best of advice/ideas to solving this problem before someone does what he no suppose. An ex patient or service user raised a sexual complaint against her previous carer since last year August and he has been suspended from work ever since. We first thought it would be over soon that its just to do investigation and come up with findings which will either proof guilt or innocence. But loo and behold up till now the issue is still on the table. The last action that sparked outrage was during one session he was asked some questions in which he mentioned hes schooling in a university, so they now went ahead to write the Uni to inform them hes under investigation so the uni asked him to stay away until he is cleared. I cant stomach this injustice anymore. Please how does someone fight this kind of battle. It took months for the details of the so called offence that led to safeguard was even known o. the police have been invited and they couldnt find any evidence of misbehavior. Yet these people are hell bent in destroying a mans life. the only thing was that the girl was given a lift and the discussion was going intimate and he claimed he stopped it and dropped her off at the hospital and went his way. that very week wahala started and up till now na on top of the matter we still dey. No work since last year and the small consolation traing hes trying to do they blocked it without any formal conviction. this BS has to stop.
Please any great advice will be welcomed Thanks. Do they know each other before? Work mate or friends? |

Nelsmannnnnnnnn: Good day guys,
Please I want to ask, I'm currently a student here in the Youkay. My school sent me a mail to face an academic misconduct panel for one of my assignment were the similarity score is 35%. I find this disturbing because I did my work by myself, reference all articles used, in fact I did everything required of me. Bulk of the 35% is made up of my references of which I cannot do anything about it. My peeps have more than 35% but was not invited.
Though I'm confident of what I did but don't know why they have to send me such destabilising mail.
Is anyone here who have experience such situation, pls advice.
Cc: Justwise Cc: All Then you don't much to worry about since you are confident of your work, normal people get worried when they copied or get the word done by someone else.

Godaloneisable: How long bro? This is the 7th month. Anyways, thanks My brother you will be fine, don't let this drag you down. If you are able to carry on supporting your family with little help from her go ahead, When you stopped asking her to support and carry on doing your best she will step in to help. I pay all the bills in my household, my wife runs the kitchen and do most heavylifting shopping for foodstuff while i pay every other bills including her mobile contract. Sometimes i come home to notice that she has bought stuff for the house or kids i appreciate that but i will not complain if she did not. The reason why i choose to run my home that way is because...before i got married i was paying all those bills without any support and now we married i will keep doing what i have been doing. Lastly... make an effort to get a sponsorship...you will be fine. |

Peerielass: End terraced houses are usually valued higher than mid terraced properties though because of the absence of neighbours on the other side and also larger gardens. This could be the reason for the higher council tax band. The same garden size, though i understand that one can challenge it if your neighbour is willing to cooperate |

Peerielass: Ok, use the link above from Zahra29 to check what your council tax should be. Different properties will have different tax bands. Generally speaking the bigger the property, the higher the council tax. Not really, council tax bands can be so random that sometimes you question how they arrived at it. When I was living in a terrace house my house number is 9 and my council tax band was B while my neighbour in number 8 was on band A, the same house size. The excuse my landlady gave then was that my house is end-of-terrace. |

Zahra29: The government's view and policy has always been that international students are only here for a short time and then return home. It is the choice of the student to pay £15k to acquire a post graduate degree (undergrad students pay significantly more), which does not consequently mandate permanent settlement.
Obviously they are now realising that the intentions of postgrad students have changed, largely due to the increase in students from Asia and Africa who would rather remain in the UK than go home, which is why the govt is looking at ways to tighten the rules.
See below statement from Jenrick, immigration minister, made in the house of commons this week:
We have seen, historically, that the vast majority of students leave the country and go back to their home country to continue their careers and lives. It is possible that the system that has evolved since 2019 will see different trends. In 2020, only 7,400 non-EU students stayed on post study and those numbers may be dramatically higher in the years ahead. It may be that the mix of individuals, the countries they come from - if these individuals come to the UK to study and then spend a period of time here on the graduate route, and certainly if they bring dependants, that we will start to see a significant increase in the number of people staying here, making a life in the UK and not returning home, in which case policies of this kind will become more important.
Its all nonsense like i said before, let me make this clear just in case anybody misunderstood my stand on this.. I'm not against any govt controlling immigration and making sure that the system is not abused. That said... These politicians are worst than people smugglers, no shame, just about the money. These Nigerians who are on the news for all wrong reasons did not commit any crime, they followed law to the end. They paid for every resource they are using. Last year the UK govt allowed 163,500 Ukraines to move to the UK and provided accommodation and jobs for them all paid for by tax payers. In 2021 they allowed 21,387 people from Afghanistan to move here to settle all paid for by tax payer Ukraines and Afghans did not pay a penny into the system but Nigerians who paid their way here are being humanised . They should change the immigration law quietly without blaming Nigerians for their incompetence and greediness |

Zahra29: Exactly 💯
Undergraduates are not allowed dependents and they study for 3-4 years. They make up more than half of the overseas student population and pay tens of thousands of pounds over the duration of their course, so why is no one advocating for them to be able to bring in dependents if they wish to?I had some mature students (as they were called) on my degree course who had families, so it's not only postgrads that have families.
Students are still very welcome, all the govt is saying is that they do not have the resources to accommodate the hundreds of thousands of dependents that are now coming along. I get that but my question is..why did they allow them in in the first place? Govt knew the number of visas issued but they keep issuing more visas, no interview to know if these couple are genuine, if they actually have the money as claimed. Do you know that American embassy injected at least one VO here in travel section to help and educate Nigerians applying for all sorts of visas. That VO was here for years answering questions and still interview Nigerians at the embassy, many fake applicants from this section were caught and exposed partly because of info they were able to gather here. British embassy just focused on PBS with little or no check. |

The whole noise about immigration figures is just ridiculous.
Foreign students came here legally, they did not come in through the English channels or back of lorries, British embassies collected thousands of £££££, access their applications and stamped their passports with visa. They got into the UK, got a job and keep paying into the system. These foreign students paid for NHS even before using it.
The same British government that allowed them in is now crying about immigration figures.
Is this not stupid of the highest level?
No foreign student came in with wife and children hidden in hand luggage, the immigration allowed them in genuinely and now they are blaming them for increasing immigration figures.
Nonsense ! |

Zahra29: In addition, no more switching allowed and more scrutiny on maintenance funds:
The package will also remove the ability for international students to switch out of the student route and into work routes before their studies have been completed "to prevent misuse of the visa system", the government said.
As well as removing this right, there will also be a review of the maintenance requirement for students and dependents and a crackdown on "unscrupulous" education agents "who make use of inappropriate applications to sell immigration, not education".
Applications will be more closely examined as well, so best to avoid any breaches of the rules:
Improved and more targeted enforcement activity
That is the biggest prob, untoubable pof is the biggest prob. British embassy carry out little or check as a result people can just buy bank statement and use it to apply for visa sucessfully. |
