no mate , i applied to immigrate , waited about 3 years , had a medical and paid about 800 quid in fees , i also had to have 3 grand cash in the bank and sign a waiver from claiming state support for 18 months......but that won't stop the whoppers calling me out as a hypocrite ......
You are very lucky having such options in life. Imagine being in a position where if you don’t escape, your wife and daughters could be gang raped or forced into marriage to be raped continually. Where your brothers and father are forced to fight or dig their own graves and be shot dead into them. Maybe taken away and tortured?
Whist it’s obviously very admirable that you had a few grand in the bank and moved to a nice area of a wealthy nation, I save my real respect for people who have had to risk everything to save their family’s lives. Although, I’m sure your story of paying 800 quid or so to move safely to the Australian ‘burbs would inspire anyone trapped in a war torn country. You’re the real hero here.
How do you break that news to the Missus?
“I’m sorry love, I know you have been gang raped and our daughters are at risk of being forced into sexual slavery but we simply cannot break the rules, it’s just not the done thing. Do you realise there are people out there who pay 800 large ones to move to a country of their choice? What will they say on NSC?! They would hate us. What sort of example would we be setting? No, we must stick to the rules, darling”.
