So I just moved from VA to WA while my husband is overseas. We have removed the apartment we were living in from allotments and my husband says he has done all the paperwork needed to start recieving the full amount into our account. I have the number to contact the Navy housing office in Norfolk and I will contact them on Monday. We paid the apartments for the month of November and I thought we would get the money around the 1st or 15th of this month. Just wanted to know what could be going on and if it is normal for it to be a month or two late (hope not!).

I found some newspapers stories as far back as the early 1900's of men being prosecuted for wife beating, but every article I read about domestic violence seems to suggest otherwise. Does anyone have a female relative who was assaulted by her husband prior to the 1980's and was able to prosecute him?

A total of £36 million has been paid out to failed asylum seekers to enable them to set up businesses back in their own countries, it was reported.
(Advertisement)

More than 23,000 migrants have received payments of up to £4,000 each under the Voluntary Assisted Return and Reintegration Programme since it was set up in 1999, said The Sunday Telegraph.

It let them set up businesses from market stalls to clothes factories in countries as diverse as South Africa, China and Colombia, the newspaper said.

The details were contained in documents from the Geneva-based International Organisation for Migration, which administers the scheme on behalf of the UK Government.

The Home Office said that the programme - which is part-funded by the EU - offered good value for money compared to forcible returns, which cost £11,000 for each failed asylum seeker.

"Last year we removed more failed asylum seekers than ever before. We will not hesitate to use enforced returns, but when we can spare British taxpayers the £11,000 these each cost, we will," a spokesman said.

"Repatriation assistance isn't new and frees up money to hire more immigration officers."

However, the payments were condemned by shadow home secretary David Davis, who told the newspaper: "Now the price of the Government's failure to secure our borders is all too clear.

"Given their inability to deport illegal immigrants, they have had to resort to bribing them to leave - with the taxpayer picking up the bill."

The disclosure comes as the Government is preparing next week to announce new curbs on foreign visitors from outside the European Union coming to Britain.

I think it should be kicking some terrorist as* and shutting down the borders.

I heard conflicting statements, ranging from 40 to 70+ hours a week. I also read that you start out working many hours but then you work less and get paid more after a few years. Also, how many hours do specific lawyers work, such as corporate, intellectual property etc.
