In a world still divided by racism, inequality, and the powerful preying on the powerless, Michael Jackson’s timeless plea feels less like a song, and more like an unanswered prayer
Heal the world!

Just to encourage someone.
When we came, on a student visa (almost 2 decades ago) the route to ILR, for so many, was 10 years. Getting any company to sponsor you if you weren't in the health sector (Dr,nurse,etc) was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
When our student visa ran out,my husband jumped on the post-study work visa(he was the last set before they discontinued it for a while).
The difference btw then and now is that the 10years route then wasn't straightforward. While you are just applying to renew on the same visa category you are already on, then we had to find what visa to jump onto once the one you were on was running out.
So after the post-study work ran out, we had to jump on the entrepreneur visa. We did that for another three years and it ran out.
After that we had to jump again into a student visa(payinginternationalschool fees for another two years). It was while on this visa that we qualified for ILR.
You can imagine how much in fees we had to part with for our family. I don't even want to mention how much that entrepreneur visa cost us.
But,in the end,we got there. And we are recovering.
All the years we spent working for visa fees,we have our passport now and we are recovering.
I know it look gloomy now but 10years will come and it'll go and you will achieve the goal that brought you,then you'll begin to recover.
It's heartbreaking, I know, but as long as they don't change the rules again in the coming years,there's a silver lining.
You'll all be fine.

Beaucoup d’entre vous mourront sans jamais savoir ni expérimenter ce que signifie vivre une vie meilleure et plus épanouissante.
Non pas parce que vous n’avez pas essayé, mais parce que votre gouvernement a fait en sorte que les choses soient ainsi.
Vous avez essayé… mais vos compatriotes vous ont trahis à cause de leur cupidité.
Bon, au revoir.
I swear this post is peak “taking the piss” 😂
President Tinubu to 'pray for Nigeria' during Saudi Arabia trip bbc.in/47HDdkZ
This is how she sounds to me
When we tell you guys to avoid Nigerian girls who migrated within the last decade, this is one of the reasons we keep saying that. She is in a working country and definitely has a job herself but she is still expecting a guy to be giving her £1000 and buy a wig for her just for being his girlfriend. Many of these Nigerian girls who japa'd recently are bottom barrel with their survivalist mentality. Any girl born and/or raised in the UK will never ask a man to be giving her 1000 quid monthly because they were not raised with that stinking entitlement mentality.
Let’s ignore why/how he got himself on the train tracks, did he actually intend to protect the barrier rather than his source of livelihood? 😧
