These back and forth clearly indicates that Nigerians are not angry about what the likes of Shettima and tinubu are doing to the country. They are simply angry because it’s not them or their uncle doing the stealing.

How can you possibly be angry at kemi for stating the obvious.

Carton of noodles is now 10k, people only eat once a day and you lots are hear blowing grammar.

10 years from now it will be thesame story. Why can’t we just call a spade a spade and maybe things will change .

We don't even have to be fully in, but much closer ties would be a very good idea if we are able to negotiate our position. E.g. free movement for work but no access to benefits until a certain time period (which is what Cameron previously tried and failed to negotiate)

Everyone just wants benefit 🤣

jedisco:
Hehe.. free matter.
These things comes in waves- life itself is repetitive. Just like high and low tide, you'd have periods of high and low immigration. We might be getting into a low-tide period which is not bad... make thise wey come recently chop small. All said, one fact remains constant- immigration to the West is based on need.

Was it the unsustainable number of Europeans that forced the self-harm called Brexit? When last was the care sector fully self-reliant? Eastern Europeans came to work here and returned yet people complained that they're using the pound to develop Poland. Now, Indians come and remain, complain still choke.

The fact is KS by his policies is more likely to reasonably rein in on longterm migration that NF. The later might show some wickedness but would ultimately cause more migration if he sticks to his economic promises. Personally, I want Reform in for this stuff to go full circle. I said a while back that the next few decades would be fun to watch. Even as hell bent as Japan was, they still had to smell the coffee.

P.S. I take exception with this unskilled migrant tag for care workers. The true cost of a care worker is not what they are paid but the opportunity cost of not having them here.

I will like to see the number of immigrants that have been given visa into Japan.
Western racism is nothing compare to those in Asia

After buying your house, the next good thing to do is to invest in the USA market....thank me later

3000 people go on sickness benefit everyday! Benefit scandal 🤣🤣

Who is following this news out of uae

Zahra29:
Net migration is lagging data. The 1M (906,000) represents net migration in the year to June 2023. We'll have to wait for future ONS releases to see the impact of the measures introduced by the last government on net migration , although Home Office data indicates that there has been a sharp reduction in work and dependant visas.
Below graph shows monthly skilled and health care visas from 2022 to Nov 2024

A visa ban should be placed on Indians Nigeria and Pakistan for 1 year.

Na only una dey this world 🤣

Goke7:
I can’t answer o me myself am confused. May be those that got their visas approved can explain

Maybe it those already in the Uk.

Cyberknight:
I want Labour to deal with this social care staffing issue once and for all (not going to happen, I know).
They should try offering care workers good pay commensurate with the job and then see how many Brits languishing on the benefits rolls would be happy to get out of bed to take up the jobs. Then they'll truly have a chance to spike Reform's guns once and for all, otherwise try to stop their inexorable march to power in 2029.

I'd prefer the UK not to have these high levels of unskilled immigration because it simply gives the Faragists all the more ammunition to fight with. And ultimately, when they do get into power, they'll take it as a licence to be as nasty as they want to be, which'll end up taking us to a different level akin to US-style polarisation and all it brings.

They still won’t work. Benefit money is enough for them.

Am I the only one who feels a bit of pity for these Jubilating Syrians?

The jubilation and burning of grave and destroying statues seem like Deja vu. I saw those exact scenes in Iraq after Saddam Hussein and in in Libya after Gadaffi. If I am a Libyan, or an Iraqi, I may very likely prefer the Gadaffi days or the Saddam days.

How America s manipulate these folks needs to be studied. Same strategy in Iraq Libya Syria Afghan

I don't mind being here, no one knows me physically and no one can threaten my mental health here.
But in real life, hell no. So I am not what you have stated above.

No face no case 🤣

Goke7:
Reduce wetin! Dey play. I keep hearing that even care workers now are applying for their dependents and getting approved. Just heard one today and another friend who just got his COS as a support worker, so could be true that jobs are now available while the whining about numbers continue.

What happend to the law that states that you can’t bring in dependents.

Accommodation in Birmingham is an uphill struggle, with Asian landlords charging over the odds for half decent properties....... I was at ulster campus last week for a graduation ceremony, it felt like unilag (considering the roll call).... 😂

Would see if I can get you any decent leads......

Chinatown folks have taken over taken over birmingham. They have extended their investment to London now buying houses all over.

I encourage people to try, not to limit themselves.. The fact that it's not the norm doesn't mean it can't happen, we just have to try. I was told not to attend the interview because it was a mistake, I attended. I was told not to take the offer seriously, yet I was adamant and landed the UK. I entered UK, naija people for work wan choke me telling me I wil struggle. Lazy people. Yes, I struggled for like a month to understand the role which is normal but now I'm a master at it. My nursing work in Nigeria is even 10 times harder and physically draining than this.
Never listen to negative people, try try try and get the response first before pessimistic people make you loose focus. UK people generally seems to be lazy and pessimistic, I've come to discover.

If this was before I would have say it is grace.
But I don’t believe in that anymore.
What was their reason for not applying for the role?

I wouldn’t say they are pessimist, there must be a rationale why they did not apply.

Congratulations and make sure you pass the exam.

My PIN is out and I'm on Band 6. That's what was stated on my Cos, Band 4 pre OSCE, Band 6 after passing OSCE. Many people especially Nigerians in my work place are angry about it here but I press their necks daily.

Lucky you. If this is true

Zahra29:
Lol, this is your singular pain point with the UK.

The economy grows if more people contribute to NI and these moneys will be invested into NHS, fix London Roads, school meal etc. do u agree ?

Saccharine:
Palliative Care isn't even funded properly, same as everything in the NHS, but they've skipped that and moved straight to death pathway.Fund palliative care well first so that dying people do so in dignity..

For now it's terminal people given 6 months to live but in reality , there are other conditions where the pain and suffering is so great but death is far.. What then happens?

What of the pain and suffering of people with dementia or the pain and suffering of those with conditions that leave them trapped in their bodies and depending on others for round the clock care?

How about people with mental health conditions resistant to all treatment eg treatment resistant depression,what of their own suffering? Is their own suffering less because they have longer than 6 months?

Who is the arbiter of suffering? Who is the person that chooses what suffering is greater than another when people are so different?

It's just a matter of time before court cases come and the law is adjusted again like Canada had to do.
I don't envy those that have to make these decisions.

You can’t fund the NHS when a large number of workable adult who should be contributing to NI are on sick benefit. Can you ?

To the moderators - Why was my post deleted?

Na this one really concern me. I no fit dey work make another person dey benefit.

Goke7:
Migration is a global thing, in fact Africans are the least in the number game. So we are the even the ones staying back to develop our place.

Good to know you are the ones staying back. Hope you have seen the video of the captured Brit soldier.

Get your fighting boots ready for what might be ww3 and hope you know Africans will be the ones they will put at the frontline.

babajeje123:
Home is where you live life to the fullest and fufil purpose. Africa in general and Nigeria in particular didn't give that to many. I like it here, I don't want to be a part of those who will be in Africa to make it enticing. Prayers for those with that unrealistic dream.

What if you haven’t been given visa. Would you not fight those depriving you in your country ?

Make we sha de deceive ourselves.

ehizario2012:
I don't know if you're in Africa or not. However, nobody chooses where they were born and I don't think it's necessary to feel guilty when you emigrate outside Africa. As long as you're adding value wherever you go, that place can become home. Abraham wasn't born in Canaan, he migrated there and made it home.

Na because them open gate most of Youna dey talk things like this. Whenever it comes to conversation of developing Africa where you all come from that’s when you lot will start quoting one bible verse or parable.

They will still ask you to go back to where you came from.

Goke7:
Canada can only pause on federal level, don’t mind them o, you see those provinces na dem be the koko, including villages and towns running all sorts of immigration streams. Imagine the devolved nations in the uk running their own immigration streams you think they will wait for any Home Secretary? Same thing with the Aussies, the provinces there run their show and the federal can never deny them their needs of immigrants. The Canada PM is just talking politics same way Brexit was used here and at the end they opened the back gate. Even the uk pm is still warming up ( watch out) Germany with all their mouth is looking for 400,000 workers. That bbc article you posted a day or two ago says it all. No govt can reduce net migration including Trump, they will huff and puff but at the end you will realise so much has been let in.

no government can’t halt migration but it can be reduced drastically. Africans should stop believing they have to go abroad to become the best they can ever be in life. What’s stopping us from staying in Africa making it enticing so people can come here and not the other way around. Abi all of Youna don neglect una home ?

While I manytimes cut her some slack for at least coming here to interract and learn from our views, her ignorance of our lived experience is manytimes evident. I sometimes curious on why she's here (with my tinfoil hat on).

Oddly, that's how populism works - blame visibly different folks for every societal ill and chorus how all issues can be solved by 'just' chucking them away. It's been a recurring decimal in many nations - one that has hardly worked. Take U.S for example- a nation that has of late done stupendously well and due to add more wealth over the next year that all of Europe put together. Yet the many average Americans believes the reason why they are not as rich as they want is not because of the social structure but cos of some immigrants crossing the border. Yes, they could secure their border but that would not adress the underlying inequality.

Capitalism has failed us.

90% of global wealth is owned and controlled by 5% of the population.

Who knows about this dream business thing that is going around. Is it a viable investment?

All this money they are borrowing...... Where are they coming from...... Looks like the world got infinite supply of money (they pump it, when required)..... ⛽💰😂

International mother something (IMF)

ehizario2012:
In all these, social workers are still confiscating children from parents at the slightest concern?? The dynamics of the UK economy seems too complex for me to understand, how is the pounds even still so strong?? A lot of things aren't adding up. Well, people in care have to keep their jobs (so the spending should continue.)

This is why we are borrowing more money to cushion health and social care spending and most importantly to pay those on benefit.

ehizario2012:
The amount of citizens on the long-term sick list in the UK is indeed worrisome. Is it sincerely sustainable?

Yes Nigerians and Indians will fill up the available jobs.

No sick person should be denied benefit. We should be empathetic and kind to others. Benefit is our right and Long live the king. 🤔
