This is inaccurate.

Russia invaded Crimea, a former part of Ukraine, in 2014 and annexed it. It had nothing to do with NATO. The west stood by and did nothing. Years later and Russia has come back for more.

Russia also invaded Georgia in 2008 and will no doubt be back for more.

Poland is relatively safe because of its NATO membership. Sweden and Finland were previously neutral but have since joined NATO after Russia invaded Ukraine.

Any eastern European country that is not already in NATO is very much fair game in Putin's imperial ambitions.

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.

The billionaires have utterly capture America. They are in control now.

The brave, straight-talking Kemi Badenoch had another catastrophe at PMQs today, and ended up complaining to daddy the Speaker about Starmer being patronizing when he dismissed her flimsy questions (even the Spectator said they were ineffective) as 'a desperate search for relevance' from someone who had 'cast herself as the saviour of western civilisation.'

You'd almost feel sorry for her...until you remember how she reffered to care workers as butt wipers.

It looks like her real value lies in her ability to provide entertainment, and she's doing well at that, to be fair.

He who forgets his root will be reminded of where he is from outsiders. You see that Africa wey una no want to work ehn the effect go touch all of una no matter your position.

When I said LISA is like ISA, it's full of sarcasm.... 😂

Have you thought about what happens to a LISA account, after home purchsse or not eventually buying a home...... 😁

You can keep paying into your LISA, until you turn 50 and HMRC would continually credit you 25%......

Only snag is, you can't access the funds till you retire, or you get penalised...... Now why would I do this, when I could rather open a SIPP account and have full investment opportunities + full exposure to the largest market in the world...... 😂🌍

Not sure, but same question applies to the UK. We give out millions in aid to developing nations including India (who many have argued is no longer in need of our aid if they're capable of sending rockets into space) :/

Bdw the new US secretary of state has put a pause on foreign aid pending a "review".

They even said uk aid is peanut. So why keep giving them free money. No brainer

Goke7:
1. A Thank you gift for allowing us to explore all your mineral resources a.k.a goodwill

2. Soft Power so you don't abandon us for China

Dashing out these billions in foreign health aid while the tax payers are one health issue away into debt and overwhelming debt.

Can anyone explain why Americans give out these humongous foreign aids to country’s. What do they stand to get in return?

Yes mod can edit posts, personally only when personal details are exposed, fraudulent materials are included or the individual is advertising stuff

Several of my post have been deleted with no explanations and I find that bizarre and like a tyrant behaviour. And you that thing where you go out and dig out people old post you need to stop it. I don’t know what you are trying to prove.

Question: I had a buddy of mine pay for Udemy course from Naija for me upon login in I can’t access the course from here in the uk. Is it just me or e don cast?

missjekyll:
Kids? How old are we talking? Please provide evidence.
Anecdotal evidence does not count.Thank you

I know who you are

missjekyll:
Till then. No the UK does not copy from the US. Thank God. We copy from the EU thankfully.

If you love the US so much, why not go there? Say bye bye to worker protections, paid leave, universal healthcare etc.
If you like all those things ,then you have to accept LGBTQ. It all stems from the same place.

Ehen

Are you saying to us that you are in support of them transitioning kids?

missjekyll:
No ,you should grow up with him.
You now reside in the UK and it's zero tolerance for Homophobia .

LGBTQ people have as much of a right to exist as you. Leave people alone,abeg.

There are 2 sexes Male and female. It’s already taken effect in America and you know uk copy’s from America so, it’s coming home soon.

This is opensource.
Anybody with the knowhow can check it on the Internet.
OpenAI code is not open source.

I m hoping that smarter Nigerians than I are already researching how to make money off the thing.
I m sure Indians have already gone to town.
Who knows who hacked deepseek over the weekend? Probably Russia. They never ask politely,always hack hack hack. They did it to the covid vaccine, here they are again with AI

Intellectual property shouldn’t be free. All open ai is doing monetisation of that knowledge.

If us had not shared Gods love ( secret ingredient) I bet the Chinese would not be a competitor.

missjekyll:
The link i posted is an indepth deep dive into deepseek.

Pros , it's cheap and does not need a lot of computing power so doesn't use a lot of energy so climate friendly.

Con: it is CCP friendly and censors "uncomfortable " truths about China. Much like tiktok

I m very happy about this although I lost money. It means the UK can afford some of that AI it so desperately needs without shelling out trillions for it. Money no dey

Still MadeinChina they are known to produce bogus tech stolen from the west. Not that im in support of the west in any way. Competition is essential to drive innovation.

missjekyll:
How rude. Your attitude is best suited to Nigeria. This is hate speech in the UK. Know it now.

High wage, low tax economy. Hehe
They fall mugu by blaming migrants - we are the par*sites eating their cake. In the words of Nigel Farage- 'It's simple, just stop people coming to this country'.

My favourite speak now is pointing out that the productivity of the nation has stalled but expectation hasn't i.e the nation is too poor to afford certain luxuries the populace demands.
I remember telling one that if he thinks my owning a house is the reason why he doesn't have one, I have good news for him- the developers on my estate are still selling houses.

Benefit money him wan use do down payment 🤣

We know androgens have a developmental and performance role and not all developmental characteristics can be reversed. At what point did they start being low? What is a top female boxers chance against AJ is he hormonally transitions today? I'd place all bets that he'd still beat the sh*t out of her. Like with many things, I think this has gone full circle.

Gender treatment especially for minors in the NHS is a sh*t show. Wait times span several years. Private clinics which may be quick to initiate treatment are quick to dump it back on the NHS- sometimes parents pulling out for cost reasons.
People did have and increasingly sought treatment below 18 - hence the recent Cass review which raised certain startling questions prompting many clinicians to have a rethink. We don't just know the longterm effect of puberty blockers. Its now widely thought that puberty hormones do not just affect the development of physical features but also certain mental faculties. What's the longterm effect on a persons cognition if those are used during a phase of rapid development?

These people are delusional that’s the truth. A woman was saying her 3 years old son keeps telling her that he is a girl and he keeps choosing girl clothing hence the sole reason she allow the poor boy to be placed on puberty blocker.

So this page is still full of American Political Arguments??!!

I wonder when it will return to conversations around "Life in the UK". Or another thread should be created for UK Immigrants?

I keep saying that this thread helped me when I came but it will be a difficult read for new Immigrants now since it's littered with Political arguments and hardly any useful talk a new Immigrant.

2 things can coexist.

jedisco:
We are not subhumans. - No human is.

China was like Nigeria few decades ago after suffering humiliation in the hands of the British for centuries. They were able to turn things around in record time.

Development comes in phases and cycles. If we do the right thing, we'd be at the top. We can start by stopping this self-denegration as it ultimately affects your esteem and how you interract with the wider world.

'Poor and lowly people from poor and lowly nations'. We can also add 'brown and black nations'

The words some of us use to describe ourselves ehn...
Is American citizenship only for 'rich and highly' prople?
Why was citizenship by birth introduced in the first place?


If a racist out there calls us subhumans, many will repeat same. We can argue for or against policies without denigrating ourselves.

Why won’t they want to call you subhumans. I mean look at your continent and your rulers.

Chinese command respect oversea because of how their government capabilities.

These are ordinary Nigerians https://www.nairaland.com/4250945/give-birth-usa-cost-procedures paying out of pocket to give birth in USA, politicians and elite have the right to do whatever they want with their money, the same way you decided to pay thousands of £££ to come to the UK to study rather than spending a fraction of that money to study in Nigeria

United States wouldn’t be so enticing if the foundational fathers refuse to make it attractive. Would it ?

And what ordinary Nigerian are spending their entire savings to give birth overseas?

To be clear, I didn’t come here to study I was born here
