But Why? He is a boer and needs to be meddling in Holland. He is bored i guess and high on laughing gas

Goke7:
They want your king to dissolve the parliament mad people everywhere 😂

justwise:
He is desperately want to run the UK govt just as he is doing with American govt right now.

He is not getting the attention and recognition he wants from the British govt even with all his money.

jedisco:
My concern with folks like him is how they can drive the media and consequently drive how people think. That most local UK media are commenting about him shows his reach. All he needs is a local popular politician to be his face/puppet

Elon was not a conservative before. He really kicked off when he felt spited. When Jo Biden invited business leaders to the white house and didn't include him.
Since inception, traditional social media tilted towards the left and were more progressive.
He's cut down all safeguards to having a civil conversation and Twitter is now a freeway for every kind of abuse + p0rn I gather. In todays world with a recent flourish of right wing ideas, it's difficult to say how far he can reach

justwise:
Tommy Robinson? That will be a tall order as he is not really popular for good reasons here. The UK political ecosystem is not really financial driven like our American senior partners so he will struggle to use his deep pocket to influence any political party here

He can only be successful if he managed to buy daily mail or the sun newspaper and few yrs down the line what happened to News of the World will be repeated.

No thank you.

Lol@ Tommy Robinson - the defender of English values and the only one speaking the 'truth'
Nigel Farage is not obedient enough to lead the cause.

True, the UK system may have not be as financially laden but it's heavily susceptible to the media. I've noticed that many elements of the Right in the UK are also not huge fans of Trump.

With most of the developed western moving right, the next few years should be interesting. Hopefully its their Brexit moment with similar lessons to be learned

You have not watched that GB news interview with Musk’s father where he said the future of the Uk belongs to Tommy Robinson?

justwise:
Yes because they know that is not sharpest tool in the box, those who support him pay the price, look at Rudy Giuliani and others who foolishly went along with Trump.

Do you remember this dude ....Nicholas John Griffin (British National Party) He was worse than Tommy Robinson but today he is forgotten.

The british political environment is allergic to Trump-like-character

Soraco57:
Hello, m trying to join my partner in the UK as dependent, we met last January in the UK last year January ,she has been on the skilled worker visa since 2023 before immigration rules changes, I do visit her in the UK but we got married in December last year 2024. In my case what is the best option to choose, thanks.

The question is Do you have permission to stay as X's partner. Yes or No
.

Thanks

jedisco:
Hehe.. I never watch that one oo.. I'd leave it under tge free speech narrative.

Tommy Robinson doesn't have the right background. He might get overt support from rioters and inward support from others but the average British middle-upper class (e.g Rees Mogg) is not lining up behind him. Nigel Farage appeals more to that group- he has the oratory, education and carriage. Even most of Robinsons protests tend to be in deprived regions.

Goke7:
This free speech movement is really doing wonders o where someone wants the King to send the entire parliament home or for Britons to be given asylum in the US 😜

Farage is the one that messed up himself going to Malarago or whatever they call it. Anything his eyes see he should collect it all by himself including handing over to Robinson as demanded by sugar daddy musk!

jedisco:
Hehe. It's called see-finish. He thought he was about to serve Kier Starmer breakfast but now he's been advised to ho wash plates at the big mans house. I wonder what he'd do if Elon offers £100m at this stage - he'd say master, I know you were pulling my legs.

It's insulting finally. Reform is Nigel's personal business which is registered as a company with him being the main shareholder. Its like saying Elon or Trump are not good enough to oversee the vision of Space-X or Truth Social respectively. With all this, the humility in Nigels response is telling. Imagine his response if it was Kemi that said same thing.

Goke7:
This should be No but do you have any current resident permit like student visa or any other temporary resident visa? you state this as well

Soraco57:
Thanks for your response, I do have a Residency permit in the EU. After picking no another question pop up again , kindly help look at the attached screenshot , thanks

Goke7:
You're in order I think since this is your first application for this visa category.

jedisco:
Hmm.. Indians have done well for themselves in the West. I only hope they can also achieve good development back home.
If Nigerians had similar attainment to them in the West, we'd be receiving more hate.

It's important not to follow media narratives to belittle hard working, high-attaininig folks just because of ethnic prejudices. Else, we'd next be calling ourselves third worlders.

In fairness to India, they have done extremely well in rebranding themselves from a 3rd world country and positioning themselves as one of the BRICs. India now commands respect and representation on the world stage in politics, science and technology and business. Many top tier global organisations are expanding their offshore operations in India, and India is ramping up its space programme which has already achieved some feats, to mention a few areas.

It's not ethnic prejudice to label Nigeria a 3rd world/developing country. Also the likes of Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan which are neighbours to India, but worlds apart.

Krys1:
I would be moving home from England to Scotland.

I’d need a moving company suggestion please.

Thank you.

If you have a driving licence and are confident, you could explore the option of renting a van from Arnold Clark or any rental and drive yourself.

Or you could rent a van and get someone to drive as well.

Either option would typically be cheaper than getting a moving company.

Cyberknight:
If you dont feel confident driving yourself in a rental van, and you don't have approx. £2k to pay established removals companies, you can go to Shiply.com and post your request there and independent companies will quote on your job for you. I've used the place myself for a move and just last month I arranged for a relation who paid £310 to move her household contents (2 bedroom property) door to door from Dundee to London. Quotes will naturally vary depending on the shipper and what you have to transport.

If you do decide to go with a mover instead of driving yourself, its helpful to pack up your stuff in cardboard boxes or moving bags with standard dimensions because that is what movers will ask for to enable them give you quotes. I used moving bags (Veno brand, try Amazon) and sent them to my cousin used to reuse for her move. I found at the time that the more standardised your load, the lower your prices were likely to be (don't know if this is still the case).
