Wuruwuru? Do tell me more...I was under the impression that people stood down for others and pulled together to put disgusting le pen in her place. Macron called their bluff and once again, the French rejected the far right.

I wish they would fly off into the sun already.

The same party macron insulted (initially), is the same party he asked people to vote for.....

So he sensibly resigns, then returns in the future, for another bite of the cherry......

You can only delay, you can't deny....... πŸ˜‚πŸ˜¬

Is that wuruwuru though? When push came to shove, they came together. To me and to many French people that's all that matters.

Whew,it was close

What happened to the confidence he exuded, when he was calling for the election....

He should have been brave enough, stood back and watched things play out...... 😁

And let the fascist/racists win?he would have been foolish to do so. The stakes were too high. Vichy France was horrible.

The far left coalition is shaky and not certain to last long. This might end up being an own goal for them come the presidential election in 2027....

What questions do the entry officers ask at port of entry? And is there a direct flight from Nigeria to Birmingham airport?

It’s been decades since some of us passed through that route.
But there is some I (we) all know who just landed recently. They may have more updated version of events.
Let me tag them, they may be able to signpost you properly.

@Kumbhuru, please do you mind sharing you recent experience with @rock 86, please?

Interesting times…
No single group has an outright majority. So France has a centrist president, a far-Right majority in Europe and a far-Left coalition in the Assembly.

No it's fine and the Home Office does not need to be notified if you work overtime for your sponsor (as long as you are paid for overtime in line with sponsorship requirements)

Interesting how the far left includes groups such as the Communists, but they are not seen as extreme or called the same names as those on the right. I suppose being on the left automatically makes them sound cuddly and harmless to some

Good morning house
Please I kind of need an advice from y’all in the Uk
I’m a software developer (mobile app developer) in Nigeria with two years of experience and I currently earn about 500k.
I started making plans on coming to the Uk via study route and I’m currently in the stage of applying for my visa. I have been very optimistic about this but last night I spent a long time thinking about it as I’m really worried about the situation I read about the Uk and where they stand with immigration.

I have been following this thread for months to understand what it’s like over there and I really hope I get a response. Thanks in advance πŸ™πŸΎ

There's lots of uncertainty with the recent change and its difficulttosay how things would pan out. However, the current pay treshold for work visas are quite steep. Needed IT skills pay well but I it's highly competitive. It's worth reaching out to tech folks already in the UK to weigh different routes available.

If coming for a masters program, it should definitely be one that'd align with your skills and boost your chances of getting a good job afterwards. You might be able to pick up remote jobs during your masters

Also worth exploring Canada as it has an tech route for express entry and Can/USA pays quite well for IT. With good cash reserves, both routes don't have to be mutually exclusive. You can still go for a masters and apply for express entry anytime from now till PSW.

Good morning colleagues.
Please I need an advice on the best route to retain my stay in the UK. I'm a student with my program coming to completion in September, while my visa expires in Jan 2025.
I'm actually thinking of post study work visa(PSWV) for a family of 4, but my fear is after this PSWV, what next? As I'm aware that most companies don't want to sponsor even after the so called PSWV.
I've lots of experience in my field but I think the companies are mostly concerned about the sponsorship.
Please what is the best thing for me to do as I've run out of ideas?
Thanks.

There's still time and it's difficult to say what would be the prevailing climate after your PSW. It's likely labour would be tight with immigration until forced by the economy.
It also depends on your field/course. There are exemptions for NHS roles and certain teachers are sought after so you or your spouse could target those.

The main issue is that with a family of 4, any visa application na big money hence why you appear worried
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by yomisley: 8:29pm On Jul 08
Good evening everyone, I have tried sending messages to the Home Office at this email: enquiries@homeoffice.gov.uk, but they keep bouncing back as "mailer daemon." Does anyone have the correct email?

Thank you.
