If you have ATM for that your dorm account, use it to withdraw at any ATM and get it deposited in your UK account.

Hello people. Please, what is the best (and most cost effective) way of transferring money from a (Nigerian) GTB dorm account to a UK online bank account (Revolut) or any other recommended one? We are new here and are having issues transferring funds please.

GTbank has forex transfer to other banks, you can make the transfer yourself. You will have to pay the charges though

If it’s a small parcel and you want quick and reliable, just DHL it and reduce English.

Alas $60 billion fund for Ukraine 🇺🇦 Israel and Taiwan has been approved.

When you have too much money and you don’t know what to use spend it on. I hope Trump wins the imminent election.

Significant amount of the money will be spent in US industries producing arms. It is not like all of it is free cash to those countries.

In that case what is the difference with just distributing that money to the poor citizens of the USA for free ? It would be even better than giving the money to billionaires and having the billionaires give crumbs to a few selected poor people known as "the workers".
You could also use that money to build bridges, or to rebuild the failing infrastructure or for health-care. What does making bombs for Ukraine add to the lives of average poor USA citizens ?

If the USA wants to use it's money to build stuff to send abroad to non Americans for no benefit to americans, then they should send me some billions worth of apple computers 💻 That would be more useful than building bombs for people whom are about to be defeated and to surrender those bombs to Russia.

Good day everyone Please I need your honest advice My husband is on a student visa which will expire Sept 2025, he came in sept 2023 and I joined him 27th of March, 2024.
When I got here hubby said I shouldn’t bother looking for my job here because I won’t get sponsorship that he already has a care job for me (got my brp on Wednesday and awaiting NI)
I have over 7yrs of experience in QA/QC in pharma, my last roles was QAM, I got the offer fews weeks before traveling which I rejected.
I edited my CV to UK format and applied on job sites like indeed and LinkedIn. I got interviewed by some agencies and companies (I have one interview next Monday with a big pharm coy).
Each time I get interviewed the last question is do I need sponsorship my answer is always yes as suggested by hubby.
I’m just tired, he said sponsorship is the real deal
Is it possible to get sponsorship in my career line?
Do I take the care job as suggested by hubby?
Do I stop applying?

Not my intention to be rude but about everyone I have met in the UK that talk this way dont do so well themselves.

He needs to change his mentality for his own good

Ukrainian are being slaughtered like cows. Millions have lost their lives yet they keep encouraging them by giving them weapon. All zilensky needs to do is find a way to resolve things diplomatically to save his people.

Lol, the audacity to try this in the NHS.
It's impossible to get away with using someone else's papers in any responsible organisation. It's also a criminal offence if caught.

This is not new ...... In my trust a couple of years ago, an agency worker attended a shift, as an RMN..... His knowledge of medications was NIL, he did not even understand the concept of vital signs/readings...... He was escorted off site, by the police........

Another Agency RGN turned up at an East Kent trust, she already dosed laxatives through a syringe, and was about to give via a patient's cannula......

It's always easier to exploit the agency route.......

so there men should continue to be slaughtered daily until there's none left?

In that case, Putin has already won again but with more casualties

Since the desolation of the USSR have you seen Russia expanded its territory? . Prior to 2014 when the far-right Neo-Nazist backed by the west staged a coup that overthrew newly democratically elected government. Ukraine was a peaceful prospering country. Now they want to join NATO. Do you think Russia would allow this ?. Ukraine has made herself a pone in the Cold War between NATO and the global south….
CUBA is still being punished since the 70s till today for daring to imagine hosting soviet nukes on its island. So why should Russia allow Ukraine to join nato and house Americans Nukes on her soil?

The war is being fought in Ukraine and not Russia. So Ukrain would have 1000/1 times the casualties of Russia. Mind you the war is between Nato which includes (USA, uk, France, Nazi Germany and other little rats in Europe) and Russia. So far with all the advances in technology they’ve not help Ukraine to win back any territory. Russia is a super power and there is no way ukrain can win Russia on the battlefield. Diplomacy is the only way forward for Ukraine . Western weapons, sanctions and propaganda would only hurt Ukraine.
Zylinkys and is crony’s are using this war to enrich themselves simply.

Ukraine was an independent country, so can associate with any organisation they deem fit ......

Why did Finland and Sweden, decide to join NATO .......

The west made Ukraine destroy their nuclear capabilities, so are duty bound to protect them.... If Ukraine had nuclear firepower, Putin would have not stolen Crimea and eventually marched towards Ukraine.......

It doesn’t work that way…
Why does America and her allies get to decide which country is independent or not?. How many countries many independent countries has America and her European cronies invaded? …
Ukraine never had nuclear capabilities. Having nuclear plant is not same thing as having nuclear capability or capacity. 30-40% of Ukraines population are native Russian speakers hope you are aware ? Are you going to throwaway this Russian speaking population to push a Nazi agenda ? ….. The more weapons they give Ukraine the more deaths Ukraine would suffer and more territory would be lost. Russia would continue cutting down Ukraine until they take Odessa.
Lastly what has been the benefit of joining NATO to Finland Sweden ? ..
