Lexusgs430: that is why i like amazon, if you want to return something you buy and the cost to return is more than the price they will ask you to keep. HMRC no try they spend 2.40 to collect 1.08 |

It is nice to see some lefties here as the average Nigerian is a Conservative. I have loved the discussion about Shamima but no one has really mentioned that she was a minor when she left and had been groomed for years. If someone sinks their hooks into a 12 or 13 year old,there are high chances that the child will fall for everything,hook ,line and sinker.Its the same way young boys are recruited into gangs at an age where a feeling of belonging is important. How about child soldiers who would shoot without a qualm,what of child suicide bombers? Recruiters try to "catch them young" because they know psychological bondage as a tool of control is very powerful. I do not look at a 13 year old criminal the same way as a 40 year old one,and that's the reason why there are juvie facilities. There will always be children who do bad things,children who will disgrace their parents no matter how hard they try.No one knows how it all went wrong. Shamima engaged in an atrocious act which I condemn in all entirety but she is British,she was groomed on British soil and should be punished on British soil. Let's Imagine for a second that she's unrepentant,why should Bangladesh accept someone who would pose a danger to them? You can't train someone badly and then push the problem to another person to handle. There's a crazy right wing wave sweeping over the UK. I believe this will hit a fevered pitch soon especially seeing the bile that's being fed to people by the very right wing media,Daily Fail,Telegraph,the Fox style GB news coming,the anti 'woke' crew .Funny that the same media is failing to hold the corruption government to account re the PPE scandal. The precedence has been set though, even if your child lives in the UK and has grandkids,the grandkids can be stripped of citizenship because of their link to Nigeria or wherever.All the brethren that are building mansions and making investments in Naija are not foolish menn. As long as you're not of British descent,your children ,their children are inferior Brits and second hand citizens. If you like let your English sound like Eliza's own,when they ask you where you're from and you say Romford but they ask where you're really from,they now have backing which is now lawful. It's terrorism today, tomorrow what will it be?If your grand child refuses to take a vaccine, a good lawyer will say ; look, he's a danger to the public, with an intent to kill by corona. Home Office can now say he's Nigerian by descent, he's a threat to public safety, strip him of British citizenship. If you set a ball rolling,there could be far reaching consequences down the line. 10 Likes

oscarwilde: 1. Orienting yourself towards healthcare. You can grab some cheap and quick certifications (NVQs) and start in at the lower levels, healthcare assistant, phlebotomist, etc. Or depending on what you read in school and if you have the money to go back to school, there's nursing, physician associate, etc. 2. Or if you can skill yourself in IT-related pathways, all that coding and stuff. In your shoes I would tweak my CV heavily and flesh out customer service experience (no matter how tenuous) and make those one of my targeted positions. The only upside of covid is the increase in positions that have now turned WFH. Then look for a couple of certifications to anchor yourself. As you are in banking, think compliance and governance (all that KYC, AML stuff), tax law (don't do a masters o). These City people have so many dodgy clients, so they have to preach compliance loudly while they happily help them dishwash their money. Then get some handwork if you can. Anything to get yourself outside on a daily. Even if you will be the designated babysitter/childcare specialist for a while, push them off to school and go and carry load in Tesco or something for a shift. Or babysit by day then go mail sorting or warehousing by night. Our Nigerian women dey try well well, tolerating our weird cultural practices and all that, but when you are the winner of bread you go show am. 5 Likes 1 Share |

oyoolima: First time commenting on this thread as i have been observing lowkey I have one or two questions for you If you have seen the video of Shemimas lawyer with Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain or what's it called, you might understand me better My question is - If Shemima is allowed into the UK despite her being not remorseful and obviously radicalised, and she goes on to blow up a school with 3 of your kids in it, what will be your reaction? What is the probability that she won't be used to orchestrate attacks while in the UK? What if that's the actual plan? 7 Likes |

LagosismyHome: You only make good money in contract roles if you do it continuously long term. A 6 month role is just there to mess up one's system cos you'd have spent the corporation tax and vat whilst looking for another role. |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by deept(m): 9:24am On Mar 23, 2021 |
oscarwilde: All way na way. There are people who have done these courses and gotten something and some that have gotten nothing. Not everybody will get the same results. If you want to become a pm/ba and the courses will help your cause then do them. |

hustla: I would feel same way you would feel if anyone blows up a school that has your 3 kids in it Piers Morgan spews obnoxious filth unfortunately, so I cannot watch anything with him on. Piers and his fellow outrage merchants have got you believing that her return to her homeland means she should automatically be on the streets dancing awilo. Has anyone said she should be set free or she should not face the music for her crime? Does justice not demand that she is tried in court abi you people don't trust your judiciary? No one knows what their plan is but there are probably worse people than her inside UK prisons.Why should she not be there? I have just said that she should be brought back to her homeland and tried here.Rendering her a Bangladeshi citizen just because she is Bangladeshi by descent has introduced a 2 tier citizenship and repercussions will follow down the line. 4 Likes |
