Basically, all the discrimination that could be brought in, into the country is primarily based on the continent-ship which means a citizen being a European or a non-European one. There, it all starts. The entitlement to all the local government aided benefits would be declined to the non ones. I myself have witnessed the bias many a times in the local stores where non Europeans being rejected to claim any contracts. No wonder one can never find this sort of big time hypocrites any where else on this planet. You visit a store, occupy a table behind which there would be a dressed up official, touching the pad of a computer, grinning a welcome smile, broadly. You enter your details, you find the person contemplating, looking at the monitor, 10 minutes pass by, and an expression of 'Sorry! you are not eligible to claim this contract' appears on the fella's face, which wears a mask of disbelief. There you go! A poignant example of bias. I totally agree this is not universally truthful but I have handful of similar cases in my notice and my 15 months of residence in Europe.
And yeah, the Elections. The Great Grand Royal Elections. The coming general elections are like a contest of status quo for both the ruling and opposition parties. Nobody is willing to forego their victory at any best deal. Just similar to anywhere in the world. Granting dreamy boons to the citizens to protect the vote banks. UK is such a place where people are presumed to be highly cooperative with running government, but Revolution is what that stands as synonym for Youth. The unshaven and unemployed youth of Europe. Its quite crucial for any political side to win their recognition and hearts. Well, this is a fair pact I tell you. You provide employment, We cast out votes to you.
But the policies being implemented to cash the votes of youth citizens are quite disgusting, especially, they are serving as banes to the non European immigrants who migrated into the country to study, work, live and make lives in this country. Students. Yes, as I hail from that section, I am deeply concerned about the injustice that is being done to non European students. Government cuts funds to universities and universities, to compensate the lost funds impose greater fees on non European students. Forget about poking the local ones. Who forgets the student riots against the educational system and its irrational moves regarding student funds and grants, last year? Th only remaining sheep are the migrated students. And they are being ridiculed. And coming to the permit to work in the country, to ensure more employment opportunities to Europeans, the work permit for the non Europeans is going to be unavailable from the coming March. So that, only Europeans would be eligible to apply for any vacancies, thereby assuring the employment to the local youth.
When I write this, the rage inside me gradually comes down, and the angst is being replaced by deep sighs expelled out of helplessness. What can the government even do? To win, is to run. And its just pooling in all its efforts to win the race. I basically do not have the credibility to point out the disgraceful behavior of the UK government when nothing runs smooth with the back home's government and the policies, back there are much more pathetic and the chaos of agony are vibrant enough to cross the seas and reach my ears when I presume everything's to be alright back there and I try to sleep.
Hoping for change. Off for now.
The situation you mention here is ghar ghar ki kahani, every so called democratic country is facing this problem wherein the ruling junta play dirty games to cash in on the vote bank. this is why i prefer monarchy, what india used to follow long ago. authoritative not authoritarian. to hell with democracy. cheers to better times.
