Title: British born and raised. But can't get a passport
Post by: Roger Bacon on February 10, 2014, 01:45:05 PM
I was born in London in 1987.
I have a British birth certificate.
English is my only language.
I have only ever lived in England.
I have grown up, gone to school, university and worked here and paid my taxes.
My father is British, my great grandfather died in WWII and I can trace my family tree in England to the 1500's.

I cannot get a British passport....

The problem?

My mother is Danish and moved here when she was sixteen. She did not marry my dad, if she had there would be no problem.

I'm stateless.

The passport office even got my mother to show all her tax earnings before I was born (26 years ago) but because she didn't work when she was pregnant and after they want my mum to prove how she lived. It's simple my dad worked and paid the bills but they won't take him into account because they weren't married even though he is on my birth certificate. They even asked for bank details but who can find that kind of information from 26 years ago?

I feel so insulted and the whole process has had nothing to do with who I am.

I have the option of trying to get a Danish passport but it will take up to 18 months to process and the forms are in Danish....I don't speak/read Danish.

I don't know what to do. All this because my parents didn't get married.

You have been mislead.
British citizenship - born on or after 1 January 1983
Quote
Being born in the UK doesn’t automatically give you British citizenship.

If you were born on or after 1 January 1983, you will be a British citizen if your mother or father was either:

a British citizen when you were born
‘settled’ in the UK when you were born
In most cases you will be a British citizen if your mother or father was born or naturalised in the UK.

Eurocrat fury as Swiss 're-build walls' against EU immigration

The EU has threatened to review all bilateral agreements with Switzerland if Bern goes all the way and blocks immigrant inflow. On Sunday Swiss voters narrowly approved the return of strict quotas for immigrants from within the EU.

"This is a turning point, a change of system with far-reaching consequences for Switzerland," Switzerland's justice minister, Simonetta Sommaruga, told reporters in Bern.

A 50.3 percent majority of Swiss voters approved the return of quotas for citizens of EU-member countries. However, while support prevails in Switzerland, Brussels is striking back with harsh rhetoric from its top officials.

Europe produced an acerbic response to the Swiss people's decision: “One thing is clear: you can’t take advantage of a big European internal market and stay outside [regarding] other questions at the same time. This is what we have to discuss with Switzerland now,” slammed Martin Schulz, president of the European Parliament.

Switzerland is not free to revoke agreements with the EU at will, said Schulz.

“For us, EU-Swiss relations come as a package,” echoed Schulz’s colleague, EU MP Hannes Swoboda. “If Switzerland suspends immigration from the EU, it will not be able to count on all the economic and trade benefits it is currently enjoying. We will not allow ... cherry-picking.”

Glyn Ford, former Member of the European Parliament, told RT: “The Swiss are perfectly entitled to pass this legislation.” He highlighed Switzerland's unusual position in Europe. “Switzerland is not a member of the European Union…it would be very different if a country inside the European Union made the same decision, because that would be a clear breach of the Treaty of Rome,” he added.

Ford commented on the move towards the far-right on the continent; it was the right-wing Swiss People's Party (SVP) which introduced the initiative. “In the European elections, in France, in Holland, in the United Kingdom at least, the far right parties will be either first or second in the European elections."

Norway to follow in Switzerland’s footsteps with immigration vote?
Published time: February 11, 2014 17:36

Inspired by Switzerland’s immigration vote, which has infuriated the European Union, one of Norway’s ruling parties is calling for the country to hold its own referendum on limiting immigration from the EU.

On Sunday, Switzerland voted 50.3 percent in favor of re-introducing strict quotas for immigrants from the EU, thus scrapping the policy of free movement within the 28-nation bloc.

The surprise choice sent shockwaves across Europe, with Brussels threatening to reconsider its relations with Switzerland and anti-immigration activists applauding the result.

“I won't take a stance on such a quota system that the Swiss people have voted for. But the idea of a referendum is interesting, and Norway also should have a referendum on immigration,” said Mazyar Keshvari, immigration spokesman for the Progress Party (FrP), which is part of Norway’s Conservative-led government.

“I am quite sure that there is majority support for tightening immigration across Norway's political parties. The polls show that,” he told VG newspaper.

Keshvari is himself a second-generation immigrant. The 32-year-old politician comes from an Iranian family who took refuge in Norway in the aftermath of the Islamic Revolution when he was a child.

Although the Swiss poll prompted calls for similar immigration-curbing measures from far-right movements across Europe, Norway has become the first nation where a government party has expressed its support for the idea.

However, Vidar Helgesen, Norway’s Minister of EEA (European Economic Area) and EU Affairs expressed concern about the Swiss vote.

“This will create problems for the Swiss business sector and the economy, which have benefited greatly from labor immigration from the EEA, as has Norway. It will be interesting to see what consequences this has for Switzerland’s relations with the EU,” Helgesen said in a statement on the Foreign Ministry’s website.

“The Swiss people have expressed their disagreement with their government on an important aspect of Switzerland’s relations with other countries. Norway would like to emphasize the importance of free movement of persons for growth and prosperity in an open economy,” said Helgesen, a politician for center-right Conservative Party, which leads the ruling two-party coalition.

Keshvari, of the Progress Party, argued that EEA migration was not that beneficial.

“Lithuanians and Poles who come and seek employment in Norway gladly bring their family here when they discover anything they can get for free by residing here, including free healthcare and social security benefits,” VG quoted Keshvari as saying.

The FrP party has repeatedly said that Norway should study the EEA Agreement and use whatever room for maneuver there is to limit immigration, Keshvari said.

Conservatives and the FrP government are now reportedly in tough negotiations with the Liberals and Christian Democrats on measures to limit immigration to Norway.

A referendum on immigration policies has not been a subject of these talks, according to Geir Bekkevold from the Christian Democratic Party (KrF), which opposes the very idea of holding such a vote.

Bekkevold said that EEA migration is good for Norway’s economy, since people who come to the country to work pay taxes, he told VG.

We have always followed our own path, from refusing to join the EU, continuing to hunt whales, keeping oil and industry nationalised, supporting Palestinians etc, so we are in many ways at odds with the so called international community of neo conservative powers. But the govt make one big mistake years ago in joining nato. let's hope our politicians will see sense and quit NATO evil alliance,and form a hydrocarbon cartel between Statoil and Gazprom in the newly discovered arctic shelf. Norway join Eurasian union, let's let Putin think about that, he would love that.
