What are the possible experiences one can get from civil service here? Any idea? I know that once one get a civil service experience, it improves ones chance more in other sectors especially with big consulting firms or isn't this the case? I would love the NHS opportunity though but the way is lower than the civil service job and a bit far away from home which could disrupt many things and plans😩. I'm hoping that with the civil service job after it lapses, I could get a shot at the NHS on a higher band. I appreciate all your thoughts on this.... Pls 🙌🏾🙏🏾 Schoolhike: |

Lexusgs430: Completely and utterly false. They have an agreement, written or otherwise, and the fellow is a tenant whether or not they had a written contract. It's the landlady who has the most top loose anyway when it comes out that she didn't do the necessary legal checks, documentation and safekeeping of the deposit (and likely also the tax filings required). The person should get in touch with Shelter. 2 Likes |

Black Bank Manager? Knew they don't like us but I've never seen this level of overtness. In 2023? What of just "Bank Manager"? And from an established media outlet like The Telegraph? 1 Like 1 Share

Thedon12: rayralph, Zahra29 et al... Different answer versions to a simple question without any reference is totally misleading. Please let's always attach reference(s) to an assertion. Yes, I know a simple google search or research could have helped the op who originally asked the question and also remove any ambiguity to the responses received. |

UniqueDext: Does the LL also live in the house? Ie. It is her main residence even if she's not there all the time? If so then it's likely that your status is that of a lodger and not a tenant. Important distinction because a homeowner can rent out 1 or more rooms in their house to lodgers, but lodgers typically have very few legal rights compared to a tenant. For example, there is no legal requirement to protect a lodger's deposit, there is no standard notice period to evict a lodger and a lodger does not have the same privacy rights e.g. the landlord is allowed to refuse them having a lock on their door. 1 Like |

Simply check schools websites in Scotland and read how they describe who is classified as an international vs Home student. You must meet two conditions to be classified as home student. Settlement and 3 years residence requirement. There is only one official version. toughest007: |

toughest007: I understand your point. I’m speaking based on experience and conversation with school admission team. The individual that said it’s a lie is free to believe anything he/she wants. If you’re in Scotland 🏴 and you’ve spent >3 years, speak to the school admission team before paying international fees.

amorprincesa: It’s not “unnecessary”. It’s an adjective. To describe the ethnicity of the individual. To give more context and reason why the lawsuit is being filed. The heading is in order. In order to think, you need to risk being offensive. |

Good day everyone. Please I would like to get clarification on this. I have been in the UK for 5months now as the main applicant on a healthcare visa. I want to apply for my husband and children to join me in the UK. My questions are as follows; 1. Do I need to show proof of fund if maintenance was ticked for me in my COS? Bear in mind that I didn't provide POF when I did my application and I have been in the UK for five months. 2. If they will need POF will it be appropriate to use my husband's bank statement? Your input will be highly appreciated. Thank you. |

What's your stance here? Is the manager White? Not all mention of people's colour are racially-slurred. I'd say the use of 'Black' in the headline is redundant, taking out readers' curiousity. However, inclusive communication has evolved on the guideline to reference people's colour without being racially-entangled or offended. Loads of helpful resources online: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/06/05/health/racial-microaggressions-examples-responses-wellness/index.html. https://andscape.com/you-got-99-words/does-it-make-a-difference-if-youre-called-black-african-american-melanated-or-any-other-term/ If I say I love Blacks and their culture. Will someone be offended? Raalsalghul: |
