  1. We seem to be having a lot of difficulty telling the difference between #religion and #nationality. It's not hard:

    #Islam, #Judaism and #Christianity are religions.

    #Israeli, British or #Iranian are nationalities.

    Don't use "Muslim" as a nationality; it isn't one. Neither is "Jewish".

    There, that's much clearer, isn't it? 👍 😀

  2. Japan will double the residency requirement for naturalization and expand screening periods for tax and social insurance records starting April 1, bringing the criteria to the level required for permanent residency. japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/03/ #japan #politics #justiceministry #nationality #expats

  3. A quotation from George Orwell

    By “nationalism” I mean first of all the habit of assuming that human beings can be classified like insects and that whole blocks of millions or tens of millions of people can be confidently labeled “good” or “bad.” But secondly — and this is much more important — I mean the habit of identifying oneself with a single nation or other unit, placing it beyond good and evil and recognizing no other duty than that of advancing its interests.

    George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
    Essay (1945-05), “Notes on Nationalism,” Polemic Magazine (1945-10)

  4. theguardian.com/politics/2026/. This is absolutely appalling. The fact that these #dual #nationality #rules have been introduced by a #Labour #Government seeking to pander to the #xenophobia of the #ReformUK vote is utterly DISGUSTING - & it will do them no good at all! The good #citizens of the Gorton & Denton constituency should show what THEY think, & vote for #HannahSpencer of @thegreenparty.

  19. If you were to give someone a primer on "modern #politics", the word "#terrorism" needs defining.

    As is the rule, we go by what politicians do, not what they say - ideological schpiel and all.

    A "#terrorist" is an actor who is posed as a threat to peoples well-being and safety.

    That's it. Now the question is: who is the actor, what "threat" do they pose and whose "well-being" are we talking about?

    The calls for Abd El Fattah to be stripped of his UK citizenship have, as Emily Thornberry points out, scant support in UK law.

    Yet its alarming how many seem to think that the UK government should have the power to deprive persons of citizenship because they have expressed obnoxious opinions in the past.

    UK citizenship law is a frightful mess and in need of reform. As part of that reform, it should be enacted that those who have gained UK citizenship either by naturalization or by descent can be deprived of their citizenship only by a court, not by ministerial decision, and only after the presentation and examination of evidence that the citizenship was obtained under extraordinary circumstances of deliberate misrepresentation or as part of a criminal enterprise.

    Citizenship should never be a privilege to be granted or revoked according to the whim of Telegraph readers.

Japan's government intends, starting in fiscal 2026, to require new property owners to disclose their nationality on their property registration application and submit copies of their passport or residence card. japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/12/ #japan #politics #realestate #nationality #personalinformation

  22. #Ohio senior #senator #BernieMoreno has introduced the #Exclusive #Citizenship Act of 2025, which could be very troublesome for #American dual citizens, from #FirstLadyMelaniaTrump and her son Barron all the way down to my own little girl. While at present the bill is still just in committee, many are hoping it doesn't go further. More on the bill and my own thoughts in the video.
