Please has anyone aced a Civil Service interview role recently? Something around a Grade 7? Please I'll be needing some tips if any. And if you have some knowledge of how to scale through, I'd appreciate the help. Thank you! |

missjekyll: It's classic 'whataboutery' when people (often our own people) say that we should speak more about a country we left ages ago, rather than a country we live in, pay taxes in, and in most cases, are citizens of. I have already voted via the post for change. I came to this country on the back of a Labour government student visa policy, and I'm happy to pay more taxes to get public services back to the way it was in 2010. In 2010, I could see my GP in a day. 9 Likes |

Election campaigning over. Time to sit back and get some popcorn. šæ Exit poll at 22:00 when we will know just how big (or not) Labour's landslide is and how the other parties have performed. šæ on the ready for Friday because there is likely to be a number of Portillo moments as the results come in. Hunt, Shapps, and other big beasts are expected to lose their seats. Meanwhile the shy and retiring Farage is expected to finally achieve his MP dream. More šæ over the weekend and into next week as the Tory leadership contest (and in fighting) kicks off in anger... Most interesting election since the 2017 GE, probably since 2010. Exciting times. 1 Like |

RefKing: Gosh. This is rubbish. I always thought attaching a birth certificate was overkill and attached none for my mother. I just sent a letter telling her about all the flower shows we will attend and all the woods we will explore. From this refusal letter, she must have got in by luck. Tell me why we need a birth certificate to prove my daughtership of my mother. Any room for appeal? Bloody EOs ( forgive my French) 1 Like |

deept: I mean. He's right to suggest that Labour with raise taxes ... somewhere. Whether that's Capital gains or elsewhere. But to then suggest that nothing will change because of it is bonkers. There are a lot of areas of government spending which are incredibly degraded right now. With no new tax rises there will need to be Ā£18bn in cuts to public spending (which the Tories already have pencilled in). There's nothing inherently wrong with paying more tax if it's used effectively for public services. 1 Like |

IridescentAge: While I agree 100% with the bolded, we can argue (rightly so) that the current UK issues are not because taxes are low, it is because taxes are not properly utilised. A govt that knows what it is doing can keep taxes as they are, and still do very, very well - by cutting wastages and curbing wastages. 1 Like |

RefKing: Meet those refusal conditions stated in the letter and you are likely to get approved. If there is no birth certificate then provide old baby pictures with your mum |

There is definitely room for efficiency savings, especially in the NHS. However some services are either unfunded or at such low levels , e.g. social care, that a degree of uplift is needed to address labour shortages, increase pay etc, and polling has indicated that the majority of the public would be willing to pay this uplift.

Voting intentions by ethnicity. Interesting that Reform is in the top 3 only for the black ethnic group.

RefKing: Add the birth certificate, if itās newly issued then explain why, add pictures with your mother or your mother with your kids or husband, if you communicate with your mother through WhatsApp or other messaging app then select non-sensitive chats and add. Call history with your mother will also help 2 Likes |

Good day Elders, Please I have a question, I know this may not be the right thread to ask this but I need to know if anyone had experience about this: Iām on PSW but I got a job offer in Dublin with critical skills work permit which is applied by the employer. Please I need to know if I still need to apply for an entry visa to Ireland from UK since I have a work permit. Thanks. |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by giselle237: 3:46pm On Jul 04 |
boneruns:UK and Republic of Ireland are different countries. If you donāt have a UK or Irish passport, visa rules would apply to youā¦ you need to apply for the appropriate visa as UK PSW has no bearing on the Republic of Ireland. 2 Likes |

justwise: Let me put it in another way. I honestly donāt understand any Muslim voter supporting LP or Peter Obi. I honestly donāt understand any Igbo voter supporting Tinubu or APC. I honestly dont understand any Christian voter supporting Tinubu. The reason is simple: Not ALL black people have exactly the same thing that matters to them. For some, itās tax. For some itās immigration. For some itās opportunities. For some it is religious beliefs. For some it is emotions. For some it is party affiliation. For some it is rent. For some it is mortgages. For some it is a combination of several factors. I know a lot of Black people who absolutely abhor Trumpās rhetorics, but absolutely disagree with Bidenās stands on infanticide , aka abortion. I know a lot of Black people who absolutely agree with Nigel Farageās position on illegal boat crossings. I know a lot of black people who dislike the Tories, but agree with the Tories that a Woman cannot and does not have a Penis. Different strokes for different folks. 1 Like |

claremont: No one said to "speak more" about a country that you no longer live in. But just as it is good and expected to pray and care for the Jerusalem where you currently live, the point was that one would assume or hope that you also prayed/cared for the Jerusalem that you moved from, when you lived in that country....Unless the principle only applies to specific Jerusalems. |
