Sorry for diving deep.
Look at this analysis.
A student has 4 banks. Namely. Revolut, monzo, nawest and wise.

He linked his monzo to his employer with NI, and that is where his employer pays his 20hour work salary into.

Now this student still does fiverr job and takes his earning into the revolut and natwest.

Would the hrmc find out. Or they can only know about what comes into the monzo since that is the one the employer pays into and that is the one tied to the NI
Yes they will find out even if you have 20 bank accounts, all they need to do is type in your name, date of birth and NI numbers and every bank account based in the uk with your name will come up.

FamilyRe: Adoption Is Not Worth It At All by phyl123: 7:04pm On Oct 01, 2022
JackDaAlienz:
I remember early 2000, my dad was planning to adopt a kid Into our family.
Later I found out that my father's friend adopted 2 boys.
My uncle warned my dad not yo try it.
I even remember going to orphanage with him to see how it goes.
For some reason he didn't adopt again.

Fast foward to 20 years later
That my father's friend is living in hell,
He says those 2 boys he adopted turned out to be into yahoo, drugs, cultisim.
They even beat him up and steal his money.

Till today im forever grateful to my uncle for preventing my dad from adoption.
Because all the families I know that adopted kids back in the 2000. None of them have peace, they always fighting, quarreling
It's a huge mess.
This is why i think Adoption is not worth it at all
Why are you concentrating on only the negatives. There are millions of adoption success stories. Your dad’s friend could have given birth to those kids and they still could have turned out that way.
There’s nothing wrong with adoption.

Isn’t funny how Nigerians claim to follow the rules in the bible and are so judgmental but when it comes to taking bribe and telling lies they can’t find the verse in the bible.
I will suggest the you people take the log out of your eyes before taking the splinter out of your neighbours.

I wish the couple good luck and a happy married life.

Let’s consider this scenario


Your grandfather invaded my grandfather’s house, stole all his valuables, sent my grandfather into exile where he later died. and burnt the remains of his belongings. Enslaved his children and family, killed and butchered those that had the courage to stand up against him. Ruled over them and made them to work for him. A lot of your families were displaced as a result. The women were raped. Your grandfather became very rich.
Now this wealth has been passed down to you . You are still very rich as a result of your grand father. Your grandfather is dead now. Your are very sorry for what your grandfather did and you do not agree with what he did. You are truly sorry but you are still benefiting from the spoils of your grandfather and still feel superior to me.

Today you parade your wealth in my face and all it reminds me of, is what your grandfather did to my grandfather. Is it wrong of me to have a little bit of bitterness towards you?

This is what happened to Ireland, Africa and Scotland. Inflicted by England. Do you think history should be forgotten?

Obaseki is trying to make it a better place but he is meeting a lot of opposition and it seems as if the people don’t like progress that’s why Benin city looks like something that was forgotten in the 18th century.

It was not people being dishonest. Rishis policy allowed people that are furlouged to work with another company and still retain the 80% furlough payment. I know a lot of people that were a lot richer during covid brcause of this.

Let's not start with the issue of Landlords not evicting tenants. A lot of people that were capable of paying rent refused to do that. Infact, that was the majority because of the policy.

I am not a landlord but I am always of the opinion that policies should be fair.

What about stamp duty holiday that pushed house prices to almost double?

TBH, a lot of the covid policies were rubbish!! If we start debating it today, we will likely come to the conclusion that things could have been done way better. The only consolation is that they had to make quick decisions!!!
COVID was a learning curve for both the government and the people. This government had never been in a pandemic before.

This is not true. We will be paying the money wasted on Covid for years!!
The furlough scheme had a lot of issues. Tax payer funds were wasted. I did not see any country that was paying people 80% and also gave them the opportunity to be working full time on another job. A lot of people were just collecting free money while working with another company.
There was always going to be dishonest people taking advantage but the DWP should have taken greater care to prevent this. In the long run a lot of people benefited from it instead of going on the streets begging. Landlords were prevented from evicting tenants during this period, which also helped .
Let’s give credit where it’s due.

Put yourself in their shoes and you have minority dominating the top positions in your country. Won't you complain?

In Nigeria, we complain about other tribes dominating. We give jobs and positions to only "our people". Is this not similar issue?
All those big contracts in Nigeria, who do you think gets them.? An earlier post mentioned that we shouldn’t compare Nigeria and UK because they are not the same . Which is very true.

If Nigeria were to be a fair society, more than 50% of us will not be here. It’s easier to let things slide and people get away with unfairness for an easy life.

Also Mr/Ms justwise you always talk about playing the race card.

if I may add why in the news today are they complaining that they are no white men in the top positions? Race will always be an issue, no matter how hard we try to pretend it isn’t.

My Oga it is obvious the choice of Lizz as against Sunak was a tilted a little bit by the race factor. Nobody is playing race card.
Sunak is not the best candidate, however sunak is better than Lizz. (In my opinion)

Haven’t you noticed over the last few years how the fair-right propaganda and agitation is gaining momentum all of we Europe?..
It’s the obvious truth, I just don’t know why some people especially some blacks can’t see it. When the whites can see it. Some people ( Uncle Toms) need to wake up and smell the coffee.

That is not extreme but lets leave that aside.

This willingness to pick up a race card at every given situation is really uncomfortable.
We can’t sweep the facts underneath the table.

I work with a lot of enlightened English people and we are able to have conversations surrounding race and they all agree that if Mr Khan was in a place like Winchester, he wouldn’t be a mayor and skin colour matters in certain top positions E.g prime minister of Britain.

Londoners voted for him.

I think he is useless as a mayor of London but that’s just my opinion. It’s always one excuse or another.

Everyone knows this but the English are not ready for a brown skin prime minister. Even if the party had chosen him they will loose the general election. Those two Uncle Sam they gave positions are just for camouflage.
