Foreigners

Roses ' outraged of Orpington' was that Kenny Everett?

"outraged from Orpington"?

It is happening, the data just won't be published. I'm not sure if that is better or not. I believe in freedom of information and if only the government know something I find it really disturbing.

Yes, Ana there are a lot of 'outraged from Orpington' on here, when nothing was definite anyway.

missed a 'let' out there - thought it looked odd!

But let's not that get in the way of a good Shock Horror thread...

Not happening now and was only being thought if 'in consultation' in the first place.

Government seen sense very quickly on this one.

I can give them a list of other things to change tack on, NHS, Welfare bill, spare room tax........

Yes, Denmark changed last year. However, you have to be Danish speaking and living in Denmark to get Danish nationality, I think. You can't apply for it if you live here.
Interesting, that. My grandson can keep his EU nationality, but the other grandchildren can't. Other two quarter Norwegian and American, but born in UK.

Misunderstanding, I thought it was Denmark's rules about dual nationality - I know they have recently changed.

I suppose because that's when they changed it, and didn't think about retrospective.
Grandson born 2002, his sister born 2007, hence the difference.

Ah, right.
I wonder why there is a distinction between pre and post 2006
Seems daft

If you were born before July 2006, your father’s British nationality will normally only pass to you if he was married to your mother at the time of your birth.

Relevant bit, Jalima.

I thought Denmark had changed the rules now and that he would be entitled to dual nationality now durhamjen

If the parents had been married would the child have taken his father nationality?

This isn't an 'ask' Hooty this is a legal requirement which is proposed. With an 'ask' you can always refuse. And it isn't schools or anything to do with funding it is companies.

Hooty,one problem is that nationality keeps getting changed by various governments.
It depended up until now on where your mother was born. My grandson, born in York, had to get a Danish passport because his parents were not married and his mother is Danish. The rules changed before his sister was born. She has a British passport.
Now they have changed again, and the next time he needs one, he can get a British one, unless it changes again because of all this paranoia about foreigners.

I thînk people are getting their knickers in a twist over the schools asking for information. I've worked in a school office for about 15 years and we have always asked for this information. We get some extra funding for having a large number of EAL children in our area (don't know if all schools get this) so it can make a positive difference to the school budget. The only new thing is asking for country of birth. Schools have to see children's birth certificates anyway (we have had people trying to sneak in an underage pupil in the past!) so it is evident from that where they were born. In any case, a high percentage of the children who class their nationality as other than UK were actually born here.

Would you have said the same to the people who stood together on Cable Street? The threat of extremist right parties is rising everywhere. Those who believe a policy is wrong need to stand and say so, blaming immigrants and foreigners for the state of the economy cannot be considered acceptable. The fact is of course that listing all foreign workers is impossible there are agency staff, temporary staff, casual workers and many others, some would always slip through the radar.

I thought the same about it turning into yet another Corbyn thread trisher, not fair on posters . I too think policies are most important , where we differ is I accept a party has to gain power to carry out it's policies, what use is being in oposition , yes verbal battles at PMQ once a week. This didn't stop the bedroom tax did it?

Battling over immigrants will not change the government's stance ,

Let's stop turning this once again into a Corbyn discussion. I support him because he has policies I wholeheartedly agree with. You consider them to be unelectable Annie perhaps they are, but as I get older I find I am becoming less and less willing to compromise. I do believe Trident is the biggest and most expensive con ever perpetrated upon the British public and I would get rid of it. I don't think student loans do the job they were supposed to and I do think the housing market should be better regulated. I don't care for personalities, policies matter to me.

Trisher, sorry I forgot to add, I do have sympathy and understanding of your belief in Corbyn, I too was fooled by him, I just learned much earlier than you, he is not to be trusted

anti-semitic.

'What is step 4 Trisher ( in your view?)'

Roses asked this. Sorry it's taken so long to respond, Ana. I've been out for dinner.

come the next election trisher we will see if my knowledge which comes from experience proves correct and your googled links proves how misled you have been , sadness is it will be too late
