Agreed, thought it'squite hard to explain this feeling. And applying for citizenship is not exactly cheap either!

Blooming heck I only just looked at the fees for citizenship.


It is much cheaper to renounce your British citizenship, I see. Part of me would quite like to press that button right now.


I really, really don't want to lose my EU citizenship, which I will need if my ex has to move back to Europe with his job, or the children all "migrate" back to his country of birth when they are grown.


It makes me so sad and angry. We were told that we were European, growing up - told to tear down borders. And we did. Some of us committed to making the idea of the "European family" the reality of our lives.

All remainers and all Regrexiteers and all people appalled by the disintegration of our political life should join the lib Dems, who absolutely cannot be blamed and are the only parliamentary party (bar Snp) unified in a commitment to stay.


I have always left politics to other people. Now I really feel I can't.

Exactly. They talk like people are chips. It's Thatcher all over again.


But then May has a strong record of heartlessness when it comes to migrants.


It's like a race to the bottom in the Tory party at the moment. Who can be the shi\\iest sh/t of all.

      Fly the flag

      Sound Lounge music venue windows smashed after altercation with those putting up flags.  Interesting comparison with another country in another time below https://insidecroydon.com/2025/09/08/suttons-sound-lounge-suffers-its-own-kind-of-kristallnacht/

      Mahmood says she could......

      Labour are bashing themselves.  There is a difference between those who really want this government to work (there are many good things but as you have said nobody is listening) and to those who don't like Labour and would never vote of them.  The move to the right is worrying and of course worthy of discussion. I wonder if those most critical on this forum would vote Labour if they did take more draconian/authoritarian action to reduce legal and illegal migration.  I doubt it,  But perhaps outside of the metropolitan areas.....

      The Johnson papers

      By malumbu · Posted

      It wasn't irony many of the population think he is amusing.  I can't print what I think. There is a whole wiki entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_image_of_Boris_Johnson Quoting from this: Unique aspects of Johnson's image have included his perceived comedic or humorous persona and semi-shambolic appearance. And frighteningly from a 2011 biography He is blessed with immense charisma, wit, sex appeal and celebrity gold dust; he is also recognised and loved by millions I've compared him with Quagmire from family guy in the past, giggity giggity
