Answer 1

try another country? you have to cross a few countries to get into britian. why choose here?

you seem ungrateful and you do get benefits, housing healtcare costs provided for you?

what more do you want?

I would have though that if you were fleeing abuse and oppression etc etc in your country. you would be happy just to be here.

Answer 2

I have some experience of this - the Home Office is completely incompetent and doesn't live in the real world - just ignore it. You don't have a choice - you can't live on fresh air. They are effectively trying to starve you out.

This is a government department in need of root and branch reform. The sooner there is a new government and we can get on with making 90% of the present staff redundant and restaffing it with competent, fairminded individuals the better.

Answer 3

As someone who was born in London, went to school, college, worked for all my adult life, i get very angry at people like you who think that if you just jump on a plane and throw yourself at the Home Office that it entitles you to claim benefits, you annoy me.
You have to work and earn a living like anyone else, if you did your research before you entered the country you would know how tough it is.
I'm black, but I'm sorry to say you don't get my sympathy.

Answer 4

it all depends if the doctor who is assessing you thinks you're mad enough to be committed
