/// She argued that if she were to leave London she would have lost a network of friends that support her when she is unwell with depression, diabetes and high blood pressure. ///

Don't they have a NHS in Milton Keynes?

Personally, I think she should consider herself very lucky she's not being moved out of the country. If I had my way, she would.

[ummmm]

//Hands up all those who wish me to be suspended?//

Not me....hands held firmly by my side!

[ummmm]

Svejk...do you feel the same about everyone? Like, should all the Irish go home?

If the family had been white you lot would all be 'jumping' at this with your "lazy good for nothing couch potatoes" comments.

/// Don't let them gang up on you, aog. ;o) //

Don't worry Svejk, I've been around much too long, to let these flock of sheep get to me.

[Svejk]

Aye, any paddy who goes to live in Westminster(where she can't afford to live) and pops out little paddy's (she can't afford to have) as fast as her womb will allow, can sling her hook too.

Svejk see post @ 12:18, we can't do that, she's British!

This is typical Tory thinking. It is one thing to voluntarily move to another area but to be forced to uproot & move to unfamiliar territory. The solution is quite simple, start lowering the rents on these properties. I regard myself as extremely fortunate that I live nowhere near London. It seems to me that authority has gone completely mad. What is it about London that makes it SO special ? If I go to a brickyard & buy a brick it is the same brick you will find all over the U/K so because a house is in London why are houses so expensive compared for example with a house 'up north' ? In my humble opinion it is time it was all sorted out.

SVEJK, she is British so which country should take her?

[mrs_overall]

For what my opinion is worth, I agree wholeheartedly with AOG.

This woman deliberately uprooted herself from the Democratic Republic of the Congo to come here and claim asylum. How come moving thousands of miles away from friends and family did not affect her depression/diabetes/high blood pressure, yet moving a mere few miles will?

Asylum seekers like this woman who take and then demand even more make my blood boil. I wonder what the legal aid bill will cost this country?

I have not "skirted around the real issue here" as you so incorrectly put, it is because I haven't addressed the issues that your mind thinks that I should have addressed, so in your frustration and disappointment you have chosen to attack me for things that I have not said but what you would have liked me to have said.

[gness]

Let's hope you and I don't fall on hard times then, Ummmm....♣

[Svejk]

Again, balders, if it were up to me like, being British would be a more fluid concept. A privilege which I could bestow on people I liked, and, more importantly, remove from whingey trouble-making types I didn't.

[Baldric]

And please note, I haven't said I agreed with it, just pointed it out!

[baza]

In case I missed it, where is the father/s ?
Many years ago I nearly moved to Milton Keynes and know some people who live there, it seems ok to me.

[anotheoldgit]

ummmm

/// AOG...grow a pair!!! ///

Yet another very rude comment to make, where are the moderators when one needs one?

But seeing that rude and insulting personal remarks are the order of the day today, let me see if I can get away with this reversed barrage.

ummmm, you asked me to grow a pair, maybe it would be more anatomically correct for me to tell you to "Grow A Pair"?

Because I have already got a pair, so I don't want to be seen as greedy.

Someone asked where the Father was,
//The *family* came to Britain from the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1998 and claimed asylum. Ms Nzolameso now has British citizenship. She separated from her children’s father in 2007 but they still have contact with him, although this too would be harder if they moved to Milton Keynes//

Family??? none of the kids were born in 1998!
