Retired 74-year-old newsagent Nelson Shardey has spent most of his life in the UK, but now almost 50 years after he emigrated from Ghana, the Home Office has told him he isn’t a British citizen. Despite the fact Nelson has been paying taxes since 1977, started a family, performed jury service, and even won a bravery award for stopping a robbery, he has been told due to a technicality he faces a costly and lengthy route to remain in the UK. A crowd-funding campaign to help the Wirral local has now amassed almost £40,000, so today Nelson joins us in the studio alongside his son Jacob as he desperately fights to remain in the country he’s called home most of his life.

The home office need to concentrate on new arrivals and not people who have been here for 50 years

@CharlesOnikosi-ql5sb Месяц назад

Leave the home office out of this. Rwanda will a welcoming home for him. Raising funds for his survival is the next option. I would like to meet him, to see how we can help in London amongst best wishers. Unless something else in contraction to the British constitution is at play then he would return to another country as a refugee from England. If you have to go, you have to go. Who cares but his immediate family, and friends.

@jessybrown5716 Месяц назад

Correct. They should concentrate on new arrivals. He could have sorted his residency following the law instead of just ignoring it carrying on as if the law doesn't exist. Best of luck to him and family.

@GilbertDenila Месяц назад

The issue before him is a complicated one. His visa ran out after his failed education and he did not in any way change his status. Though he was able to work and establish a business, he still did not regularise his stay. His being illegal in the UK became a problem when he wanted to travel out of the UK with a plan to return. This is impossible without a valid passport, UK reentry visa or an international travel document from the home office that grants you the ability to do that. The rules are very strict on issues like this. He should be regularise on humanitarian grounds. Period.

@oluwafemijohnson9650 27 дней назад

I do not wish to place full blame on him. When his visa expired, it was the responsibility of the Home Office to take appropriate action. However, it is also true that he was granted certain benefits such as paying his mortgage, taxes, and even opening a business. Additionally, he was recognized with an award. It is important to consider the context of these events, as they occurred several decades ago.

@jan22150 24 дня назад

@oluwafemijohnson9650 he should have checked his status when he was denied funds for his study by his homeland. Always make sure you are an eligible citizen.

@GilbertDenila 19 дней назад

@@jan22150 His denial of funds by his homeland had nothing to do with his status, he was denied funds because Ghana at that time was facing a horrible economic situation, I mean really bad. It was like what is obtained in Zimbabwe now or even worse. Then a military dictatorship suspended the constitution and most bilateral agreements the country signed. There was not much foreign currency for the government to dole out then. Most students in the diaspora were simply stranded.

@MrOsarpong 17 дней назад

Have you done Consular work before? It isn't just about regularisation of stay. If the state had an opportunity to remove you or inform you, that's an equal burden on the state. Secondly, if you live a country for a certain period, paying taxes and being a member of the community, any civilised country would consider that in determining stay and citizenship. Mind you, we are not talking about hiding away for a decade or more. So I'm unsure why you put the blame on him. 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s with children. 😅

The rules have changed over the years. Terresa May changed the law as Home Secretary introducing a "Hostile Environment" without regard to migrants who were already lawfully in the country but had never got around to applying for a British Passport. The Windrush Scandal was that the Home Office had deliberately destroyed the documents they held of Caribbeans lawfully in the country, leaving those Caribbeans who had never applied for a British Passport ( because there was no legal requirement for them, to do so ) unable to prove they had arrived in the country before 1972. School records and pay slips not counting as proof they were lawfully in the country.

As much I do empathise with his story this man lived in England illegally, you don’t become a citizen by accumulating a number of years in a certain country. He came on a student visa which he defaulted from it by not being able to fund his education. Also back in the day the system was not that robust as it is today. People could work in England and live without being noticed by the system. We can’t compare him to the wind-rush generation because those people had overseas British passports. All these years how come he never tempted to travel abroad even on a holiday, he knew his predicament and he thought he had cheated the system. Well the past is catching up with him unfortunately, I do wish him all the best. There’s a lot of holes 🕳️ in his story.

I do hope this man is granted citizenship, and it seems unfair that it should cost him so much to apply, however, what was glossed over in this interview was the fact his current predicament is largely due to his own ignorance, and not because of anything the British State has done. He had 50 years to apply for citizenship and didn't. It's not the Home Office's fault that he erroneusly assumed he could become a British citizen by simply living in the UK, without actually applying for citizenship. That's not how citizenship works in ANY country, and for good reason: citizenship comes with rights and responsibilities, and so acquiring it from a country you weren't born in and have no ancestral ties to should take more effort than simply moving there and staying for decades. It's for practical reasons that countries require immigrants to expressly apply for citizenship - they need to understand what it involves, and in some cases, their country of origin will not allow them to retain their citizenship of that country if they become a citizen of another.

He can apply for the 10 year route to residency and renew his visa every 2.5 years up to 10 years after which he can apply for permanent residence and then a year later, citizenship. There is a process and owning a house, paying taxes etc unfortunately does not make you an automatic British citizen, if not, more people will arrive in the country a similar way and that's where the issue of "taking local jobs" comes from unfortunately. He’s clearly settled into life in British society but it doesn’t make him British if he hasn’t regularised his stay.
