r/ukvisa is a treasure trove of useful info and experience and has saved me so many times by digging up home office policies buried on the website that could get a visa rejected but boy does it not take a lot for several people on that sub to throw disabled people/"illegal" immigrants/asylum seekers/the entire concept of taxation and socialised healthcare/etc under the bus

#yes it fucking sucks that we have to pay the ihs #it sucks double that you have to pay the ihs even when you are paying national insurance #i do not like being taxed twice when the tory besties with millions barely get taxed either!#the solution to that is not 'get rid of the nhs it barely works and move to private healthcare entirely' can you actually hear yourself #or to say 'well i shouldn't have to contribute to the nhs as i never get sick ever and i pay for private healthcare when i do get sick'#or 'the government is so busy bleeding money from us the Good Legal High-Earning Immigrants Who Deserve To Be Here and ignoring the people.#... crossing in small boats who don't deserve to be here'#i am not even paraphrasing much lol 'this government hates people who want to be here legally' is a running comment on the sub #my good pal they hate ALL immigrants #they hate some of us less than others but they're not after us bc they have some sympathy (???) for asylum seekers they're doing it bc they #see a cash cow that isn't their besties and are trying to make it ridiculously difficult to get in the country. bc they don't like immigran #this coupled with labour's announcement today that THEY would actually be good and harsher with small boat crossings and i guess kill more #asylum seekers as though that's a matter of fucking pride #has pissed me off ok #rhetoric in this country towards 'less desirable' immigrants and asylum seekers and refugees has always been vile but god #have suella braverman and priti patel really done a number on it bc it's so so unabashedly violent in the last few years #i'd also like to point out that people struggling to be in the uk 'legally' (quote marks for a reason) & resorting to other means is a #direct consequence of the hostile environment and how hard it is to get a visa logistically financially etc #anyway i don't understand the 'it is hard for me therefore let me make it fucking harder for everyone else instead of attacking the people #in charge who made it this way and benefit from us being screwed over'#the model minority thing got in our heads and infected us you gotta cut it out and stop trying to be the good immigrant and ffs don't do th #tories job for them #i am. mad. ok i'm done now #ukpol #immigration #abolish borders today pls #2023 is an experience #my post
