You are totally correct. Makes so much sense.


It can be scary. I remember when i dabbled into runing barber shop in South London. I was adviced to register, in the end i started getting these scary letters from HMRC. I wasn't even making that much. In the end i wanted to shut down the shop quickly but someone else bought me out. I had to inform HMRC in writting that i am no longer the own of the business. It is not an easy thing running a business in the UK, if it was many people would do it. The UK tax system expecially on business can be very complicated, it isn't a straightforward system hence many who understands it could dodge taxes and the ones who do not understand it pays for it. this is where the accountants who could charge up to £100 an hour comes in.

This recent taxation and VATs are way too extortionate. My council tax just went up. I ve already got their bloody letter. Water bills has also gone up by %44. It has become too expensive to live in England, just only in England. Wales and Scotland are still very reasonable to live in.

hehe bro that place sounds very scary. You have to be on your toes all the time. That cannot be life ooo. They put you on this hamster wheel from cradle to the grave. Life is too short for all that nonsense now. Which is why japada is trending now. People are starting to realize their life wasn’t so bad in Nigeria and they are running back 🏃‍♀️. Hehe barber shop in South London ? What area ?

Story. Only you talk about closing your company...the same you still looking for a job for over 4 months and you claim to be a doctor. I just feel like this lady is just catching cruise. Tell her to come and start the farm work in Nigeria now....you won't hear from her again. Don't believe everything you read online.

She's catching cruise.. I can't bet anything, she won't step her foot back to the country.

People just dey advise for nothing. What would she do when she gets here, come and work for a general hospital and be receiving 300K per month?

I agree.


The shop was at Tower Bridge Road, My areas at the time was Old and New Kent Road, London brigde, Elephant and Castle, Bermondsey, Walworth Road, this was in 1998 i was young at the time and thought i want to run a baber shop. My father warned me at the time.

You are right, she wouldn't leave the UK even if you paid her to leave.

She has been in the UK since 2012 and has her British passport.....she is certainly not returning back to Nigeria.😂😂😂

Out of how many Medical Doctors over there? Some of them will go there and make it and some will not make it. It's good to commit our ways into God's hand most times. Because it's about our profession or what we know but by the grace of God.

hear this one, grace of God. all the prayers people pray in Naigeeria yet nothing appear to be working. The UK has nothing to do with God. If anyone depends on grace of so called God. They d end up in the streets homeless, cold and hungry. Believe it or not.

hehe all that area is my hood bruv. I used to live above this chippy on walworth road. SE5 area code. Camberwell elephant and castle Peckham Norwood brixton bermondsey stockwell and tings and tings bruv. Burgess park, east street market and tings bruv. That’s the hood bruv 😁😁

wow that’s unimaginable. It’s a great country if you walk in there with Arab money. Just chilling and chopping life. It’s a great country. But to go and look for money ? It’s a tough place

Fiscus105:
Many of our nurses over there are doing nurse assistant but since everyone back home, has known they have relocated, they have no option than to continue their health-care services instead of proper nursing.

No thanks to exchange rate that also favours them.

Oga this one na pure lie. No Nigeria registered Nurse will leave the shore of Nigeria to UK without getting job from Nigeria. It's even the job giving them visa with family. That's why, most of those still in Nigeria have all their requirements and hasn't secured job over there. They move as soon as they get a job. Any one telling you he/she is a nurse from Nigeria and is now doing care job abroad was a quack in Nigeria displaying as a real nurse. I still count nursing as one of a blessed course God grants many of us Nigeria.

Oo! Okay! Yep! i am very familiar with these places. Peckam Rye, Peckham market. Always at Peckam market. My uncle lived near Queen station Peckham.

I had a 6 weeks holiday job at the Surrey Quays shopping centre. Working in burger king at the time. I think i worked at Argos also along Old Kent road towards the Toys R US.

What is a council tax bill and why is it so high?

Council tax depends on the band you are.
When you earn around a certain amount, you are expected to pay a certain amount.
That police, fire brigade that rush when you dial their hot line is paid with council tax.
That good road you admire, the trash, the neat surrounding etc those that do that are paid with council tax. Libraries you go to for free is equipped and kept up to date with council tax
The free education from primary to secondary, subsidised council housing, and so many.

Folk rush to uk and get all these free and maybe think that the money used for them fall from heaven.
Nigerians and their love for freebies.


Nigerians should check k their payslip and notice they pay all these tax but they don't see the value.

If it's not on your payslip, then your company is being taxed for it collectively.

Uou dey mi d these clout chasers.
But, everybody you say should be used for or against you in the job market. Happy hunting for her.
Didn't read why she made that comment but I guess she must have defaulted in something.
We start making noise anytime we are caught

I agree. The Arabs has bought almost the whole central London anyway. Driving their huge Lamborginis, Ferraris and Masseratis along Kessingnton high street, Oxford street, Paddington, Burkingham palace road and knightbridge.

I moved outta London years 12 years ago, it became to congestessted over crowded, expensive and polluted. I also grew up in London so i thought i should try the countrysides now that i have kids, i wouldn't want me sons to join London gangs.

Before i moved outta London i even tried to live in East london, E17 where i also grew up as a child but that didn't work. That is Walthamstow, Leyton, Leytonstone, Hackney and Chingford area.

well walthamstowe is 2 stops away from my old hood Tottenham on the Victoria line. Black horse road then walthamstowe after Tottenham hale. It’s a good thing you moved out. London is not the same again. The soul has left the city.

You got around quite alot. You didn't hang about did ya? i am familiar with all of East London as well..

I used to ride bike from Walthamstow Market to Stratford before the westerfield shopping centre and Olympic village was even built. i am familiar with Tottehnam, Tottenham Hale, Hackney, Edmonton, East Ham, Canning town, Barking, Upton park green street. Are you sure i haven't met you before?

UK is an overrated shithole

hehe bro am sure we have met. Definitely sure. Every place you named up there I have lived or chilled but you know this was youthful exuberance and strength. You just roam the earth like a mad man till you calm down. But it’s all a good experience because nobody can tell me nothing about anywhere and I will be clueless. It’s all part of living life. Creating memories and having experiences

Yea, i am older now and have children so it was good for my kids as well, I am well familiar with Walthamstow, blackhorse I even worked at the Spurs old stadium before i moved outta London.

So one cannot rent a shop and start up a food cooking business(like a small canteen) in UK?

What do you mean by "BBC is free"?

GloriousGbola:
actually the taxes would make sense if they are not diverted

the BBC is free. so it has to be paid for somehow

commercial vehicles leads to wear and tear on roads whose maintenenace has to be paid for

I agree!

Why are people not going to Scotland, wales and Ireland then?

Calitoscassius:
It has become very very very expensive, it wasn't like this 25 years ago. But yet many people from Africa, India, Bangladesh, Thailand and Philipines wants to go live in the UK. It is only in England though Scotland and Wales are still reasonably okay to live in.

spurs old stadium ? White hart lane ? Edmonton area ? Hey you did the right thing moving out to raise your family and I wish you all the best with that. Nothing like a good strong family unit

Yes, you can. Alota people do it, you can even do this food business in places like street markets. There are popular street markets in London. Walthamstow market, Dalston Market (full with Ghanians and Naigeerian street traders, hairdressers and shop owners) in East London or in South East London Peckham, Brixton, Deptford or Bourough Market
