An interesting fact or two I learned yesterday...


Recommended Posts

I was speaking to a Sikh guy a few years younger than me who has a wife and two young kids. They'd undergone the Punjab > Italy > UK migration route that's proven to be very popular for the past years. They've been in the UK for a few years. The conversation started off as a discussion on house prices, then he starts grumbling about his wife always wanting to go into town on Saturdays and Sundays, meaning spending money for things they don't actually need in places like Primark, etc. 

I didn't realise Punjabi migrants were entitled to benefits when the husband is working full time. Apparently, the UK govt gives these families £600 per kid, which works out at £1200 per month for a family with two children. The wife gets some money per week but he didn't mention how much.

The hilarious / worrying thing is that these migrants also claim 500 euros per month from the Italians, which is why the women jump on an EasyJet or RyanAir flight with the kids every four weeks, and return to Italy to claim their cash, then return on a Monday evening. Now, these families are placing deposits on new-build homes because they have the money from benefits to do so.

I was shocked. I can't believe there's money being handed out like this for what? Having never got one penny from the govt even the many years I was out of action, I don't understand it, lol. When some white folk kick off about immigrants getting benefits and priority housing I use to think it was typical racism, but it's obviously not the case. £1200 for sitting on their ar5e, watching PTC, and wandering around a shopping centre. F*** that!

In terms of Corona, now the borders are being closed, the monthly Italian scam will come to an end, because they won't be able to visit Italy.

A lot of these recent migrants do take the p1ss. I knw this white lady whose friends with a somalian man, his wife was expecting and the white lady asked him how his wife is doing and he said shes flown off to some European country i think it was Sweden! im not sure, but anyway the white lady said why she flown off to there isnt she due to give birth anytime soon and the somali guy said that shes gone there to give birth because you get better benefits there! shes then gnna fly back to the uk after giving birth      its mad!

Theres a punjabi lady who lives down my road and who was a illegal immigrant and she went to india on a wheelchair pretending shes disabled and she got away with it! and in the process using her "disability" as an excuse shes managed to get her entire family to move over to this country!   you really cant make this sh1t up.      a lot of this advise is given to them by punjabi lawyers.

these people take the p1ss     ask those bachare who came over to this country in ships back in the 40s and 50s and worked hard in boiling hot places like foundries and what not, they are the ones who set the foundation for our generations and built the communities and made gurdware. in my area we have a few old bazurgs who were the first sikhs in this area   they came over in the 50s

If only these newcomers realised the game being played. Actually, if only our sianeh realised why they were being ushered from the colonies into these lands, I doubt anyone would've come over.

Mujhburi would have made some come. Looking at my grandparents example, from this vantage point, I can say: One didn't really have to come (hmmm....), in relative terms they weren't remotely in the desperate situation the other was (the latter, Baba ji, being the first to arrive here). 

It's the old Chinese astrological ox and rat analogy I guess?

Could you just be jealous of these immigrants I wonder? Ie getting on the property ladder and they have a wife and kids, family. Have it all on the plate and doing well in life. While you still get no replies from the lonely hearts advert you've had for the last year and still can't get a mortgage. 

While new commmers have progressed further.

i often wonder how many people who moved here actually needed to move here in the first place lol     with my dads side of the family i can see why his family sent him over, but looking at my mums family i really dont see why my nana/nani sent any of them abroad!  only a few years back my mama from america was even considering moving back to punjab after like 30 yrs of being abroad because he would of still lived a comfortable life back home, but by that time his kids were grown and they refused to move and his wife didn't want to either, too late lol   even if all 4 of my mums brothers were never sent abroad there still would of been plenty to go around for all 4 of them to live comfortably.  i just dont get why some families sent there sons/daughters off abroad. 

Waheguru ji does everything for a reason i guess....

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
