Goke7:The grooming gangs is actually an extremely serious matter and it's been widely known for many years that the members of these gangs were predominantly from a specific demographic. |

jedisco:As far as I know , the student visa route has not been closed or changed so why are these 2000 international students not coming in? Could it be that a currency depreciation coupled with an increased cost of living is more to blame for the fall in international students from certain countries? What is your recommendation - UK universities should offer home tuition rates to foreign students to attract them in? (As many already offer discounts and payment plans) |

justwise:Like the ones in the Rotherham scandal which went on for over 20 years from the 1980s and involved the exploitation of over 1000 young girls. Like the ones in the Bradford grooming gang scandal which went on for many years. Like the ones in Derbyshire, Huddersfield, Oldham, Telford, Rochdale and others.... I won't post their pictures but there's a clear trend. |

Zahra29:Lol...it wasn't currency depreciation that stopped international students, it was the visa restriction on the dependants. And this you know, so stop pretending. |

jedisco:They blame international students for everything. |

babajeje123:1. International undergraduate students were never allowed to bring in dependants so the dependant ban would not have impacted their numbers. 2. Postgraduates from certain countries brought in more dependants and these are the countries that have seen the biggest decline. Other countries have seen a nominal drop in the number of their international students, or an increase in some cases. Screenshot below. 3. The article Jedisco cited was of nursing students - who typically have to do a full degree to be fully qualified and not a 9 month post grad course. See point #1.

You haven't heard from Kemi in a while? Well , yesterday she stated in parliament that the PM "misled parliament" i.e lied. That is a serious charge which is not made lightly and was why bojo was impeached. She should have known this. She had to be checked by the Speaker of the house. Starmer pounced on her and compared her to a lettuce. I quite agree with him ,she is not long for that seat. P.S : Just a general word of caution, I would be careful accusing anyone of using AI generated wording. It comes across as very insulting especially to people with English as a second language . Sounds like " your grammar is so good,there's no way this could be you. You must be using a robot" . We learn English from the age of 3 in Kindergarten so Yes Our grammar can be that good. |

missjekyll:LOL Boris was not impeached. He resigned as PM when his cabinet and government fell apart (precipitated by Javid and Sunak). The last time there was an impeachment process in the UK was well over 200 years ago. |

Goke7:The Gaza in question sef is a province in Mozambique that has a high prevalence of HIV, which is where the donation was sent and not the Gaza Strip. Trump and his comedy gang in the white house no go wound person sha, Olodos! |

Goke7:Oh my gosh, he is such a phool. Honestly, his speech yesterday shocked the heck out of me. So hateful and rank. |

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

Goke7:In addition, you see those monies sent to those countries to fight HIV, if those donations are stopped and HIV spread continues when Americans travel to those countries to groove, remember they will return to America and you know what that means so na 'egungun be carefull things' |

justwise:Please can you help me or direct me to the page (if it is on this thread) where I can get information on inviting my mother from Nigeria to the UK. I am searching for the detailed documents needed for my mother and I. Also how much do my mother and I need to show in the account. If anyone else has done this before, I will need your guidance. Thanks |

missjekyll:Kemi hasn't been up to a good start as the Conservative leader. It seems there is this uneasy silence among many conservatives about her- many who are waiting for the right time to strike. Polls haven't helped eitherway. Regarding the AI accusation, you need to understand where its coming from. Whenever Zahra is cornered, she comes up with such - its a coping mechanism. I remember when she used to chourus how migrating Africans were the reason for NHS wait lists as we bring our many untreated ailments - on countering that, her escape mechanism was accuding me of hating Brits. It was also what she resorted to when the '..but' tactic failed during the riots. Or was it international students e.t.c there's always a tantrum she ultimately pulls out. Initially I used to wonder what is going on, but these days, I expect it. |

Zahra29:Free market I see. So we should excuse our government who gives out our 40k visas to workers when we have a litany of Brits who can do those jobs? Remember your much repeated example about HGV drivers and how you praised the government for resisting calls to further open the visa route for them which may have ultimately resulted in higher wages for local drivers? Sure, if you say so. I suppose the hundreds of care agencies whose sponsorship licenses were revoked were subsequently able to get their licenses reinstated.No need engaging more about this as its a sector I know like the back of my hand. I agree with you majority of the carers who arrived have since had their visas revoked and they have since been deported. Hopefully, those who remain receive their ILR promptly as there are a growing number of unhappy folks it seems. Hope you are supportive of our carers and families getting their ILR and becoming citizens in 5 + 1 yrs (or sooner)? Zahra29:As you know, there have been multiple changes in the IS visa scene of late. That is a major issue Cardiff Uni VC and many other unis have highlighted as a major driver for their woes. If you want a refefresher- ask. My recommendation- the government needs to see to it universities get adequately funded especially to train Brits in important fields so we dont keep relying on migration. Tgere are largely 3 options- reinstate direct funding, increase fees to make up for the years they were frozen or make it easier for international students (who subsidise British tertiary education) to keep coming over. Should I also share what my recommendation would be to the Canadians (when I get there)? BTW, I'm still keen to know what point you did realise Brexit was/would be an own-goal Also, why were you so particular about the relationship between China and African nations? |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by jedisco(m): 4:04am On Feb 01, 2025 |
BTW, I recently received a warm-worded letter from ndi-Canada. It read; 'Thank you for choosing Canada!' - I replied; 'You are very welcome my people' (soon to be compatriots, I hope) ![]() Looking forward to a new adventure- abeg make una wish me luck. P.S if any is eagerly waiting for me to leave, do remember that a Brit always thinks home.
