Hey

I know there are many, many things happening in the world right now and there is only so much time, energy and money people can invest in social justice but with the advance of fascism in Europe - 84 fascists from 12 different countries were elected to the European Parliament this year - and with the news of a 15yo Romani teenager dying during a police confrontation in England last week, I have compiled a list of different human rights organizations dedicated to helping Romani people in Europe.

Please donate if you can!

Why the time still might not be right for England

With the exception of my homelands and my childhood favorites (Brazil), I'm basically a neutral when it comes to international soccer. That is to say, there's no team I routinely support over others, though there are some teams for which I typically have a stronger affinity. The sources of these sympathies are sometimes deeply rooted in childhood memories, familial ties, or simply due to specific players I admire.

But I say I'm a neutral because these allegiances can be fleeting. For example, I had always been a fan of France (I am a francophile in just about all aspects of my life), but after they defeated Brazil in the 1998 World Cup final, my mood toward them soured. I have, at times, cheered on Italy (I had several family members who were fans of Italian football growing up), but in recent years have not found much to enjoy in their performances. I grew up not supporting Argentina because they were great rivals to Brazil, but I can't help but admire and support the play of Messi, Di Maria, and others. All this underscores the fickle nature of these faux-bonds to national identities that aren't my own.

For example, in the 2020 (well... 2021...) Euro finals, I was rooting for England. Although Italy were in the midst of a historic undefeated streak, I was swept up in the narrative of "football coming home." It did, after all, seem long overdue. A chance to win a trophy on home soil again seemed most apt, and ending Italy's unprecedented run would have been just the way to do it. But, alas, it was not to be.

My support for England would have likely come as a surprise to many in my family. My mother's generation grew up in the colonies and still harbor much ill will toward the former empire. And while my mother taught in England and has close, lifelong English friends, she would never cheer for them on the pitch. She still has negative memories of English hooliganism in the 1980s when she lived there. Those were the stories I grew up with as a child.

But as an adult, I've buried my face in English football most weekends, studying the ins and outs of the Premier League. I've followed English players as they move through the academies to clubs across Europe. In short, I feel more invested in English football than I do in any other European country's. And free of the colonial shackles that pester my forebears, my Canadian citizenship adds some validity to any rationale of support.

So RA RA for England! Let's go Three Lions! Football's coming home!

Except, this Sunday, I won't find myself rooting for England. Yes, I'll be cheering on La Roja, despite my typical support for England and despite the myriad reasons why an English victory would be so meaningful. Let's revisit a few of them...

The Perennial Underperformers

England may be either the worst best team in football or the best worst team. By whatever metrics you choose, their record of success pales when compared to their historical expectations. Their only World Cup victory came in 1966 on home ground. Heavy favorites Brazil were eliminated in the group stage largely due to heavy fouling on Pelé, which led to injury. England's quarterfinal win over Argentina that year is mired in controversy. And home field advantage was probably a large factor in their wins over Eusébio's Portugal in the semis and the West Germans in the final. While the event remains a national moment of pride for Britons, not everyone views it fondly, especially South Americans who believed that the officiating in the tournament was biased toward Europeans.

Sticking to Europe, England have never won the Euros. In fact, their appearance in the 2020 final was the first time they had ever made it to the final. In the first 15 iterations of the tournament (1960-2016), England had reached the semifinals only twice. Now they've reached the finals twice in a row. As the nation that developed the game, and where the world's most esteemed league is stationed, it only makes sense that all roads lead to an England victory.

Garreth Southgate

A lot's been said about Garreth Southgate's performance as England manager, but that's all par for the course. You can't take the helm of the Three Lions without being subject to intense scrutiny and near universal disapproval by literally millions of people who don't know nearly as much about football as you do. Still, Southgate has manned the ship for the past eight years, producing some of England's best and most consistent results.

In his first tournament as gaffer, he took England to the World Cup semifinals. While they finished 4th, it was their best showing since 1990, and only the third time in the country's history that they had reached the World Cup semifinals. (Let that sink in.)

Taking them to their first ever Euro final in 2021 was another monument. Losing in a penalty shootout was utter heartbreak. Southgate had missed the decisive penalty in the 1996 Euro semifinal versus Germany. A Euro victory in penalties would have been sweet poetry, but instead, the curse endured.

Harry Kane

No one can deny that the England captain is one of the best footballers in the world. Not only is he an exquisite striker, but he excels at aspects of the game that other prolific strikers like Haaland and Lewandowski don't. The fact that he has never won a trophy for club or country to accompany the litany of individual awards and records he has accumulated is utterly unfair.

We all though that drought would come to an end in 2023-24 when Kane abandoned perennial flunks Tottenham Hotspur in favor of the one sure bet for a trophy every season — the mighty Bayern Munich. And despite another incredible individual season, Kane managed to find himself on a team that underwhelmed, finishing third in the Bundesliga, getting knocked out by a third-tier team in the Pokal, and losing the DFL-Supercup in a big way. Like Southgate, Kane must be cursed.

A win for England at the Euros, with Kane as captain, would mean redemption, validation, and immortality.

Spain doesn't need it

Another strong emotional rationale for rooting for England has nothing to do with them, but rather that this Spanish team doesn't really need this trophy. There are no legends on the Spanish team who have so far been deprived of deserved silverware. Sure, Rodri has not won the Euros or World Cup, but he has won the Champions League and just about every other trophy in Europe. And the likes of Yamal, Williams, and Pedri will be superstars for years to come and have several other chances to win a major trophy.

But England doesn't deserve it

And yet, I'm still going to be rooting for Spain this Sunday. Why? It's simple.

Spain has been the best team of the tournament. I'm not just talking results — I'm talking performances. They have played consistently well. Most of the pundits were sleeping on this team prior to the start of the tournament, with some even suggesting they may finish third in their group. But the writing had been on the wall. This team had been performing extremely well for the past two years, including winning the Nations League and (excluding a 2-0 defeat to Scotland) breezing through Euro qualifying.

Not only has their record at Euro 2024 has been impressive, they've managed their victories against some of the world's best sides. They're the only team to have won all of their games, including wins against Germany (tournament hosts, ranked #16 in the world), Italy (#10), Croatia (#9), and France (#2). More than their victories, their play has been inspiring and invigorating. The consistently exceptional play of Lamine Yamal is no surprise to those of us who watched him in La Liga last season. The breakout play of Nico Williams at this tournament has been another great Spanish highlight, and the contributions of Dani Olmo have been extraordinary.

In contrast, England has played poorly all tournament. They've looked a shadow of what this collection of players should be. Their performances have drawn condemnation from pundits, fans, and former players and coaches. Their play has lacked creativity and fluidity. And these poor performances have not come at the hands of esteemed opposition. Their semifinal against the Netherlands (#7) was the first time they had played a team ranked higher than #19 in the entire tournament. Were it not for a few timely moments of brilliance by some of the world's footballing superstars, England would not have made it this far.

You could argue that England has spent their tournament building up to the final and can now give it their all. I suppose that is a valid argument, but it doesn't hold enough water for me. I will not be surprised if England wins on Sunday, nor will I be disappointed. In fact, I would probably be very happy for them. English football deserves a win for all the strides it has made these past few years.

But you simply can't argue that England deserves to win this tournament over Spain. La Roja have been the undisputed standouts of Euro 2024. Were England to emerge victorious, you'd have to think that all the valid criticisms about their play in the early rounds would merely fall to the wayside, and would that be okay? Maybe. But if I were to look back on an England Euro 2024 victory years later, I would only remember that it was undeserved and serendipitous, and it will be somewhat spoiled for me. I want an England victory that feels deserved. I'm not saying easy — just deserved — hard-fought, well-played, spirited, and memorable. That can't happen this year.

But if not this year, then when?

In his introduction to a posthumous collection of Hilary Mantel’s essays, her editor Nicholas Pearson makes an announcement as shocking in its way as the news that the white cliffs of Dover have crumbled into the Channel or that the ravens have fled the Tower of London.

Mantel, the author who more than any other modern artist sustained the myths of English nationalism, had given up on England, Pearson tells us at the start of her Memoir of My Former Self (just out from John Murray)

When she died, unexpectedly, in September 2022, she was a week away from moving from Budleigh Salterton on the Devon coast to Kinsale, in Ireland. Mantel wanted “a reconnection with her Irish Catholic roots,” Pearson says. But it was more than that. She could no longer stand what the Conservatives had done to the UK. Mantel and her husband Gerald McEwen were moving to Ireland “in part, an attempt to re-establish European citizenship in the wake of Brexit.”

There are two types of nationalism. The first the British have endured to excess: the bellowing, chest-beating, braggart nationalism that brought us the Brexit disaster, which Mantel so deplored.

Braggart nationalism was Boris Johnson assuring us we could be world-beaters just because we were British. It was David Davis, Michael Gove and every other leading right-wing politician promising the fooled and fleeced British public that European political and business leaders would be desperate to cut favourable deals with the UK because our might and wealth would be unignorable. It was the belief that outright lying to the public about Brexit bringing billions to the NHS and saving us from mass immigration was justified in the name of the greater nationalist good.

It was (and is) the belief that we must yank the UK out of the EU, the European Convention of Human Rights and any other treaty that constrains our ability to delude ourselves that we are still a great power, which can tell the rest of the world to go to hell. It was the malice that led the right to denounce those who disagreed with it as saboteurs, or enemies of the people, or in the case of Scottish nationalists, who are not as different from the Brexiteers as they would like to believe, as traitors guilty of “talking Scotland down”.

No one has done so much damage to the UK as the Conservatives who claim to love it the most. If you want to see where 14 years of right-wing rule have left us, look at the frankly terrifying report the Resolution Foundation issued on the UK’s decline.

Here are the highlights or lowlights: wages grew by 33 per cent a decade from 1970 to 2007, but have flatlined since, costing the average worker £10,700 per year in lost wage growth. Income inequality in the UK is higher than any other large European country. Low growth and high inequality work together to ensure typical households in Britain are 9 per cent poorer than their French counterparts, while our low-income families are 27 per cent poorer.

I could go on and dwell on the 50 percent of shift workers in Britain who receive less than a week’s notice of their working hours. Or about how UK companies have invested 20 per cent less than those in the US, France and Germany since 2005, placing Britain in the bottom 10 percent of OECD countries, and costing the economy 4 percent of GDP.

But rather than recite statistics let us just agree that conservative nationalism has ruined the country; and that austerity, Brexit, Trussonomics have been ideological displacement activities that have not just deepened our malaise but have stopped the right facing it or even admitting its existence.

The second type of nationalism was Hilary Mantel’s nationalism. It is the nationalism buried deep in the culture; of half-true myths and consoling stories that vast numbers of people, regardless of their politics, tell each other. In the UK’s case, there are two, that most people once took for granted.

We are a moderate country that does not tolerate extremism and prefers common sense. While the rest of Europe was seduced by madness of fascism and communism, we remained sensibly democratic and free.

Because we are an empiricist country, we are also an inventive country that gave the world the industrial revolution and beat the Nazis with Spitfires, bouncing bombs and by breaking the enigma code

British national myths are tied to Protestantism and a deep anti-Catholic prejudice, which for all the talk of having a reckoning with our imperial past, is barely discussed. Far into the 20th century it was axiomatic that the Reformation replaced a corrupt Catholic culture with Protestantism that led to the Calvinist work ethic and the industrial revolution. Throughout English history writing until quite recently you find historians harbouring the prejudice that to be Protestant was to be progressive and modern, and that the Reformation took the country forward.

Even on the left, which should have tried to break free of prejudice, there was a rather bizarre attempt by Christopher Hill and other Marxist historians of the mid-20th century to see the Protestant sects of the English civil war as precursors of socialists and communists rather than, for instance, of the evangelical right or al-Qaeda.

Mantel saw herself as an outsider from England’s soft, Tory south. She wrote in 2002

“As I grew up, I came to see that Englishness was White, male, southern, Protestant and middle class. I was a woman, a Catholic, a northerner, of Irish descent. I spoke and speak now with a northern accent. And if I tell an Englishman my date of birth and my religion and ancestry, I am telling him, without needing more words, that my family are working people, probably with little education."

But, as she went on to acknowledge “All these markers – descent, religion, region, accent – are quickly perceived and decoded by those who possess Englishness, and to this day they are used to exclude. You are forced off centre. You are a provincial. You are a spectator. If you want to belong to Englishness, you must sell off aspects of your identity. Possibilities of self-redefinition were presented to me. I could become educated, go and live in the south if I liked, abandon my faith and change my accent”

She did redefine herself. But it would not have mattered if she had stayed in the north, The point about national myths is that they are shared by north and south, left and right, insider and outsider. Or at least they were until the Tories took power in 2010.

Mantel reinforced them in her Wolf Hall trilogy. After the first volume appeared the Catholic bishops of Shrewsbury and Plymouth spoke out against the “anti-Catholic” bias of showing Thomas More (Saint Thomas More, if you are Catholic) as a “scheming villain” while making Thomas Cromwell - “surely one of the most unscrupulous figures in England’s history” – its hero.

The bishops had a case. Thomas More had not just been sanctified by the Catholic church. In the second half of the 20th century in A Man for All Seasons, Robert Bolt portrayed More as a man of conscience resisting the tyrannous Henry VIII break from Rome (the parallels with the dissidents who resisted Stalin and Hitler were obvious).

You still hear people quote the praise for the rule of law as a defence against arbitrary power Bolt put in More’s mouth.

Mantel, the lapsed Catholic, turned More into a vicious and tormented man. A snob and a fanatic, who persecutes protestant heretics. Meanwhile she turned Thomas Cromwell, the unscrupulous bureaucrat, into an enlightened, civilised politician, who despises More for his refusal to tolerate dissent.

In Bring up the Bodies, the second volume of the trilogy, Cromwell sees dissolving the monasteries as a way of freeing England from waste and corruption. He says of one

“Two hundred monks at the height of its fortunes, and now – what? – forty at most. Forty fat fellows sitting on a fortune. The same up and down the kingdom. Resources that could be freed, that could be put to better use. Why should money lie in coffers, when it could be put into circulation among the king’s subjects? His commissioners go out and send him back scandals; they send him monkish manuscripts, tales of ghosts and curses, meant to keep simple people in dread. The monks have relics that make it rain or make it stop, that inhibit the growth of weeds and cure diseases of cattle. They charge for the use of them, they do not"

Cromwell goes on to imagine using the wealth of the Catholic church to give England “better roads, and bridges that don’t collapse”. Mantel presents him as a Tudor Keynesian. He wants to set unemployed men to work “mending the roads, making the harbours, building walls against the Emperor or any other opportunist”. He wants an income tax on the rich so that Henry VIII might provide the poor with “shelter, doctors if they needed them, [and] their subsistence” in a 16th century version of the welfare state.

England’s deep cultural institutions loved Mantel. The BBC and Royal Shakespeare Company dramatized Wolf Hall. Booker juries twice awarded her their prize. Mantel’s portrait became the first painting of a living writer to be displayed in the British Library.

They loved her for her genius, for her depictions of power politics and sexual politics, I am sure. But they loved too because she reaffirmed national myths.

The Conservative have now made it impossible to believe in those myths. A moderate, practical country? Brexit has been the communism of the right, pursued with a Leninist ideological purity regardless of the consequences.

Mantel’s Thomas Cromwell is obsessed with stopping the continent uniting against England. If the Empire grows too powerful, he seeks to ally with France (and vice versa). First England and then Britain sought European allies to stop Louis XIV, Napoleon, the Kaiser, Hitler and Stalin dominating Europe and uniting it against us[i]. And now, because of Brexit, the whole of Europe can unite against the UK any day it chooses.

You cannot believe we are inventive and empiricist culture. No commonsensical country would have managed its affairs as the Conservatives have done. After 14 years of their rule Thomas Cromwell’s dream of providing the poor with “shelter, doctors if they needed them, [and] their subsistence” seems as distant as ever. Frankly, the Conservatives can barely provide them to the middle classes.

Because of the wreckage the right has left, Hilary Mantel, the justifier of the Protestant cause, was planning on rebuilding her connection to the Catholic church whose bishops had denounced her. The great artist, who reimagined English history had given up on England and wanted nothing more than to get out while she still could.

What do you think about Kosovo?

Despite all the troubles and issues that are going on over there, I love Kosova. It's where my family lives, it's where my citizenship is from and it's where I feel most at home, even after over 20 years of living in the diaspora. I feel like things have been starting to change for the better there in recent years and a lot of improvements were made despite people calling it a european third world country and a failed state with no hope. Whenever I visit, I see new improvements being made, and I visit it 2-3 times a year.

I hope that the political issues they face can be resolved someday in a manner that profits everyone and that people can start to see the flaws and right points in both sides affected instead of being one sided. But I am also worried for Kosova's future and that people will turn to extremism (islamic, nationalistic etc.) out of this feeling of being torn between many political spheres and being a 'playground' for third party political influences - half of the world does not recognize Kosovo's independence, it's one of the poorest countries in Europe, the west is trying to impose their values on the people there, Turkey is investing a lot in Kosovo and trying to bond with it and establish some sort of neo-osmanic thing, Islamism is on the rise in the torn society where people lose hope in the country. A Kosovar citizenship is pretty much worthless and most people are kinda imprisoned in Kosovo since it's hard to really go anywhere outside of the Balkans. Ethnic tensions between Serbs and Albanians arise all the time so that politicans can abuse these tensions to profit off of them and spread propaganda, as there is no national identity, only an ethnic one. Kosovo is really trying it's best with keeping minority rights though.

You can also really feel this 'proxy war' between Russia and the West that's being fought on the backs of the Albanian and Serbian people, who are constantly being played against each other. But nevertheless, it's a place with a rich and diverse culture and super hospitable and friendly people, breathtaking landscapes and no matter what, my heart will always belong to it. It always hurts to leave for the diaspora, I just returned a few days ago.

What do you think about Kosova?

#you probably just wanted to know whether i think its 🇦🇱 or 🇷🇸

Golden Visa opportunity via investing in startups

Golden Visa opportunity via investing in startups .The concept of a "Golden Visa" has gained significant popularity over the last decade, providing individuals with the opportunity to obtain residency or citizenship in a foreign country through investment. One of the more innovative paths to acquire a Golden Visa is by investing in startups. This option is particularly appealing to entrepreneurs and investors who want to diversify their portfolios while securing residency in another country. By contributing to the growth of nascent businesses, Golden Visa applicants not only meet the requirements for residency but also foster innovation and economic development. In this detailed exploration, we will cover everything you need to know about Golden Visa opportunities via investing in startups, from understanding the concept and benefits, to examining key countries offering these programs and considerations to make before embarking on this journey. 1. Understanding the Golden Visa Concept Golden Visas are essentially residency-by-investment programs offered by various countries. These programs allow non-citizens to obtain residency, and sometimes citizenship, in exchange for making an investment that benefits the country's economy. The required investment can take various forms, such as real estate purchases, government bonds, job creation, or investing in private businesses—including startups. Golden Visa programs aim to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) and foster economic growth, while providing investors with benefits such as freedom of movement, tax incentives, and a pathway to citizenship. Golden Visa opportunity via investing in startups . In many cases, Golden Visa holders receive residency rights not only in the country of investment but also within the Schengen Zone or European Union countries, depending on the program's scope. Startups represent a particularly exciting avenue for Golden Visa investors because they allow investors to gain a foothold in cutting-edge industries while meeting residency requirements. 2. Why Invest in Startups for a Golden Visa? Investing in startups as a pathway to a Golden Visa offers several unique advantages. Unlike more traditional investment options such as real estate, startups allow for a dynamic and growth-focused approach. Here are some reasons why startup investments can be particularly attractive: 2.1. High Potential Returns Startups, by their very nature, carry higher risk compared to traditional investments like real estate or bonds, but they also offer the potential for high returns. Investing in a successful startup can result in substantial capital appreciation, especially if the startup goes public or is acquired by a larger company. The rapid scaling of startups in tech, healthcare, or green energy sectors can yield significant financial rewards. 2.2. Supporting Innovation and Job Creation By investing in startups, you are contributing to innovation and economic growth in the host country. Many Golden Visa programs prioritize investments that lead to job creation and the development of high-growth industries. Countries want to attract investors who will play an active role in fostering a competitive economy, and investing in startups often aligns with these goals. 2.3. Portfolio Diversification Startup investments offer a unique form of portfolio diversification. While traditional investments such as real estate are stable, startups allow you to enter sectors that could have exponential growth potential. Investing in a promising early-stage company gives you exposure to industries like artificial intelligence (AI), biotechnology, fintech, and renewable energy. 2.4. Active Involvement For entrepreneurs, investing in startups can provide an opportunity for active involvement. Depending on the nature of your investment, you might be able to take an advisory role or even help shape the direction of the business. This can be particularly rewarding for individuals who want to combine residency acquisition with their professional interests. 2.5. Tax Incentives and Financial Benefits Many countries offering Golden Visas also provide tax incentives to investors. These may include reduced income taxes, exemptions on foreign income, or favorable capital gains tax rates. Countries seeking to stimulate entrepreneurship through Golden Visa programs understand that attractive tax regimes can lure global investors looking to maximize the return on their investments. 3.

Considerations Before Pursuing a Golden Visa via Startup Investment While the allure of obtaining a Golden Visa through startup investment is strong, it's important to approach the process with careful planning. Here are key considerations: - Long-Term Commitment: Startup investments typically require a longer-term horizon than other forms of investment.

RIF Trust’s Golden Visa Overview

Mimoun A. Assraoui is our CEO. He explains the concept of golden visas: “Essentially, a golden visa is a Residency by Investment (RBI). Travel becomes easier with a golden visa, and other benefits include access to better education and healthcare.”

“Golden visas are typically available in Europe,” continues Assraoui. “But they’re also to be found elsewhere. On top of that, there are programmes that are golden visas in all but name. As you’ll discover below. ”

Golden Visa Countries

Canada

The Canadian Start-Up Visa Program is effectively a North American Golden Visa with a C$275,000 price tag. It allows you to settle with your family and enjoy free education and universal healthcare. As a Permanent Resident, you’re obligated to reside in Canada for at least 730 days (2 years) within the first 5 years of signing up.

By living in Canada for 3 out of those 5 years (1,095 days), you qualify for Canadian citizenship.

Our Canada Passport Ranking totals the amount of visa-free, visa-on-arrival, and eVisa countries you can visit. You can enter 117 countries without a visa, 37 by VOA, and 21 via eVisa.

2. Greece

Given its name, Greek Golden Visa, this Residency by Investment establishes Greece as one of the true golden visa countries. Invest by Saturday, 31 August 2024 and you’ll have to pay at least €250,000 rather than the new minimum of €400,000 on Sunday, 1 September 2024. Other areas in the country will see rises from €500,000 to €800,000.

As a resident, you’ll enjoy visa-free travel within the Schengen area. Yet, after living in Greece for no less than 7 years, you qualify for Greek citizenship and passport. Our Greece Passport Ranking reveals visa-free travel to 120 destinations, 31 by VOA, and 27 via eVisa.

3. Malta

While Malta is in Europe, its RBI is known as the Malta Permanent Residence Programme (MPRP). For a minimum investment of €150,000, you’ll experience the same ease of access to the Schengen zone as you do with the Greek Golden Visa. Yet there is no route to Maltese (and European) citizenship with the MPRP.

To become eligible for a Maltese passport, a better investment is Maltese Exceptional Investor Naturalization (MEIN). This requires an investment of at least €600,000. Our Malta Passport Ranking shows you can use this travel document to reach 118 countries without a visa, 32 via VOA, and 25 by eVisa.

4. Portugal

Another of the European golden visa countries is Portugal. The Portuguese Golden Visa requires a minimum physical residence of 7 days a year in the country. Portuguese Residency by Investment is most popularly available by

investing at least €500,000 in a national venture capital fund.5 years later and you’ll be able to apply for Portuguese citizenship and passport. There is a language test to take. Our Portugal Passport Ranking outlines visa-free entry to 120 destinations, 31 by VOA, and 27 via eVisa.

5. Spain

Spain completes our round-up of European golden visa countries. But hurry while Residency by Investment in Spain is still an option as the Spanish Government have pledged to abolish the Spanish Golden Visa. It nonetheless remains available through a minimum €500,000 real estate investment.

Live in Spain for 10 years (2 if you’re from Latin America or the Philippines) and you’re eligible for a Spanish passport. We rate this passport the 2nd best travel document in the world. Our Spain Passport Ranking details visa-free arrival in 126 countries, 30 through visa on arrival, and 24 by eVisa.

6.United Arab Emirates

The UAE Golden Visa is the only officially titled golden visa outside Europe. As a UAE resident, you must visit at least twice a year. While, just like with Malta’s MPRP, citizenship is not an option you can benefit from visa-free entry to 18 countries with a resident’s card.

Investors steer clear of volatility. They want to establish a base on firmer ground.

7. United Kingdom

The UK Innovator Founder Visa is the closest Britain gets to offering a golden visa. This is distributed following a qualifying investment of a minimum £200,000. Spend 5 years as a Permanent Resident in the UK and you can then apply for a British passport.

Our United Kingdom Passport Ranking tallies visa-free, visa-on-arrival, and eVisa destinations. This adds up to a score of 177. That comprises visa-free travel to 118 countries, 37 with VOA, and 22 by eVisa.

8. United States

The US EB-5 Investor Visa is the American version of a golden visa. Invest at least $800,000 to qualify. There are few more emblematic residency documents than a Green Card and you’ll receive a provisional one after 27 months of residency.

3-6 months down the line, you’ll get your hands on a conditional Green Card. After 5 years of lawful permanent residency, you can convert this to a US citizenship. Our United States Passport Ranking places the American passport in 8th place in the world’s best passports.

How to Get a Golden Visa in 2024

The concepts of golden visa and Residency by Investment are more or less interchangeable. To cut through the jargon and find the best programme for you, we suggest you consult an expert in the field such as RIF Trust. So, contact us now and we’ll show you which of the golden visa countries most suits your needs.

Exploring Global Residency and Citizenship Investment: A Comprehensive Guide

What is Global Residency?

Global residency refers to the opportunity to reside in a country other than one’s own, usually facilitated through some sort of visa or residence program. Indeed, it offers several advantages, including better healthcare, education, and lifestyle prospects. The procedure for global residency and eligibility criteria vary from country to country; generally, attaining certain financial and legal parameters is involved.

Visa consultancy plays a critical role in helping individuals navigate these complex processes. Visa consultants offer advice on the best visa options, assist with paperwork, and ensure compliance with local laws. Visa consultancy is a specialized service provided by experts who help individuals and businesses navigate the complex world of visa applications and immigration procedures. If you’re considering moving to a new country, working abroad, or studying overseas, a visa consultancy can offer valuable assistance to ensure that you meet all the requirements and follow the correct procedu

Example: If you’re looking to move to a new country for better career opportunities or lifestyle, a visa consultancy service can help you find the most suitable residency program based on your qualifications and goals.

Understanding Citizenship by Investment (CBI)

Citizenship by Investment (CBI) programs provide a means for acquiring citizenship in a country through a sizable contribution of money. This money may be given via donation to a government fund, real estate purchases, or some other business investment.

Possessing two citizenships, or having citizenship in more than one country, undoubtedly offers opportunity benefits, such as simplified international travel, better access to global business ventures, and greater citizen security. This is in some respects the essence of dual citizenship, also known as dual nationality; of having citizenship in two separate countries at once. This language implies one would have citizen status, an associated passport with each country and, in doing so, some or all of the associated legal obligations and duties that accompany citizenship.

Example: Countries like Malta and Antigua and Barbuda offer CBI programs that allow you to obtain citizenship through a combination of real estate investments and donations to national development funds.

Popular Visa Options and Services

1. EB-5 Visa Program

You might have heard of the EB-5 visa, which is a well-known pathway for someone to invest in the United States. The minimum investment in a U.S.-based company must be $800,000, and you must create at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers. In exchange for your investment, you and your immediate family can receive green cards and ultimately a path to permanent residency.

Example: An investor from China or India might choose to invest in a U.S. real estate project or business under the EB-5 visa program, gaining access to the U.S. market and living opportunities.

2. Investor Visa USA

The Investor Visa USA often refers to the EB-5 visa but may include other visa types for investors, such as the E-2 visa. The E-2 visa is available for individuals from treaty countries who invest a substantial amount of capital in a U.S. business.

Example: A European entrepreneur may use the E-2 visa to start or invest in a U.S. business, benefiting from the U.S. economic environment while living in the country.

Immigration Services and Consultants

Immigration consultants are experts who assist with navigating the intricate immigration process. They provide valuable services such as visa application support, legal compliance, and advice on the best immigration strategies for your needs. Immigration consultants are professionals who provide expert guidance and assistance with immigration processes. They help individuals and businesses navigate the often complex and bureaucratic world of immigration law and visa applications. Their services are crucial for those seeking to move to a new country for work, study, or permanent residency.

Example: If you’re unsure about the requirements for obtaining a residence permit in Canada or the U.S., an immigration consultant can guide you through the application process, ensuring all necessary documentation is prepared and submitted correctly.

Permanent Residency and Investment Opportunities

Permanent residency grants individuals the right to live in a country indefinitely, often with similar rights to citizens, such as access to public services. This status can be obtained through various means, including employment, family sponsorship, or investment.

Investment opportunities can play a significant role in obtaining residency or citizenship. By investing in real estate, business ventures, or government bonds, you can gain residency in desirable locations around the world. Investment opportunities refer to potential avenues or options where individuals or businesses can allocate resources, such as money, to generate financial returns or achieve specific goals. These opportunities can vary widely in terms of risk, return, and type of investment. Identifying and evaluating investment opportunities is crucial for making informed decisions that align with financial objectives.

Example: Purchasing a luxury property in Portugal through its Golden Visa program not only grants you residency but can also provide you with the potential to obtain Portuguese citizenship after a few years.

Citizenship Investment and Immigration Services

Citizenship investment programs provide a streamlined approach to acquiring citizenship in various countries. These programs generally require a significant financial commitment but offer a relatively quick path to citizenship compared to traditional routes. Citizenship investment, also known as Citizenship by Investment (CBI), refers to programs that allow individuals to obtain citizenship in a country by making a significant financial investment. This investment often involves contributions to a national development fund, real estate purchases, or business investments.

Example: The Caribbean countries of St. Kitts and Nevis offer a citizenship-by-investment program that allows individuals to gain citizenship through a financial contribution to the country’s development fund or real estate investment.

Immigration services are essential for individuals seeking to navigate complex immigration regulations. Professional services ensure that you meet all legal requirements and help you avoid common pitfalls in the application process. Immigration services encompass a range of professional services designed to assist individuals and businesses with immigration-related needs. These services can include visa applications, residency permits, and compliance with immigration laws.

Vanuatu’s Strategic Move: New Future Fund Citizenship Option

The European Union's heightened scrutiny of citizenship by investment (CBI) programs has prompted several countries to reconsider or end their schemes. In response, Vanuatu has introduced the CIIP-CNO Future Fund, a revamped CBI option designed to address EU concerns and boost its appeal. This new initiative requires applicants to invest in Vanuatu's renewable energy sector, specifically coconut oil-based power production. With a contribution of USD 165,000, which includes a redeemable investment, applicants can secure Vanuatu citizenship and benefit from numerous advantages. These include visa-free travel to over 100 countries, significant tax incentives, and a streamlined application process. The CNO Future Fund aligns with Vanuatu's renewable energy objectives and offers promising returns, making it a strategic advancement in the evolving Vanuatu citizenship landscape.

We have already explained how an election can be stolen in this country without any traction to prosecute the Perpetrators.

The particular "Presidential Elections" under examination are only public opinion "elections" -- a straw vote attesting to the popularity or unpopularity of the candidate, having no guaranteed effect on the actual election of the Corporation President(s), a matter which is always determined by the Electors of the Electoral College --- who are Proxies of the Shareholders of the United States, Inc., and United States of America, Inc., who are largely Europeans.

While it is immoral and dishonest to mess with the results of a popular opinion poll such as those sponsored by the political parties (lobbies) in this country and which are foisted on the American Public as "Presidential Elections" --- of a kind -- we can find no law against it.

So, all of Donald Trump's accusations and complaints and arguments about the interference in the 2020 Election are probably God's Honest Truth --- but it continues not to matter, because there is no law against stealing a straw poll election and proof that this data manipulation impacted the votes of the Electors (in the actual Electoral College Election) have not been forthcoming.

It is glaringly obvious that Joe Biden spent most of the last campaign in the basement somewhere, didn't really campaign, avoided as much public exposure as possible (probably because his handlers already knew he was having cognitive problems) and was never so wildly popular as the skewed election results pretended.

The Liars made the mistake of overdoing it, like a little kid who starts out with a plausible story, and then embroiders it too much, the (Popular) Election Thieves had Joe Biden "winning" by a completely and wildly implausible margin given Donald Trump's economic record.

Which brings up the perennial question, "Why are you stupid Americans beating on Donald Trump? He created an economic miracle for you!"

As you see, it wasn't Americans who elected Joe Biden. It was largely European shareholders, and European shareholders have other investments --- like investments in China and Germany that compete with their investments here. They don't necessarily want America to be economically, socially, or educationally superior.

The actual Electors wanted Joe Biden in office, knowing that he would damage and reduce America's economic capacity and undo everything that Donald Trump did ----and thereby lessen competition for their other investments.

Just like the so-called Civil War scenario, where Great Britain, Inc., invested heavily in Egyptian cotton, thinking that they could displace American cotton. As competitors in the cotton market, they naturally wanted to undercut American cotton production and increase the labor costs of the American plantation owners for purely commercial reasons.

Abolition of slavery became their rallying cry --- not because they objected to slavery whenever they were the slave owners --- but because it was a politically potent weapon they could use to get a conflict started.

They achieved their actual goal, which was to reduce our cotton production and increase the expense of whatever cotton we did produce --- and hid it behind a smokescreen of public sentiment against the evils of slavery.

Their entirely self-interested and cynical manipulation is revealed by how quickly Parliament amended the Naval Agency and Dispositions Act of 1864 to allow King's Bench operations in this country, and also how quickly they "conferred" enemy citizenship obligations on the innocent former plantation slaves, using their "Territorial" Congress and Southern Democrats to do the dirty work.

The Civil War was about cotton prices, not slavery, but none of the history books commented on that. You have to read the boring, Committee Minutes of the British Parliament in the late 1850's and who is going to be motivated enough to do that?

A moment of silence for our researchers, then and now.

In the same way, the current day Monsters in Tweeds are ginning up all these stories about space aliens and exotic blood-thirsty religious cults as a smokescreen to cover the fact that they were themselves engaged in peddling one of the most infamous drugs in human history --- adrenochrome.

We needn't be surprised. The same characters were the primary perpetrators, developers, pushers, and beneficiaries of the infamous Opium Trade.

The importance and meaning of Gandhi's March to the Sea has been equally obscured; the Brits hoped to make salt a very, very valuable ---indeed, life saving-- commodity throughout the Indian Subcontinent, just as it was in Roman times in Europe.

Here, they simply kill us in the name of protecting us, and charge the survivors for the "service".

It isn't to Britain's advantage to have a strong America, now that they think they have found a source of even cheaper mercenaries and factory labor in China.

All of this rot, all the wars, all the misery, all the lies, come down to Britain and the heirs of the British East India Company and the Dutch East India Company commingling together like a ball of snakes for 300 years.

These are old European evils that our ancestors came here to escape, but as everyone can now see, they piggy-backed along like fleas and infected the New World with the same diabolical and small minded, grasping, dishonest and selfish consumer mentality that afflicted the Old World.

The coercive and destructive lust for political power came along for the ride.

The Electors marching off to cast their votes via the Electoral College are never going to elect Trump, which means that the White Hats, to the extent that they exist, are in a bit of a tizzy. The continuing schism between the US, Inc. and the USA, Inc. may be just for show, but it makes the 2024 Election Shuffle dicey, especially because the Americans finally woke up and realize that it's all just a fraud anyway, top to bottom and front to back.

This isn't a story about the Dems and Fabians stealing the popular election results of the 2020 Election. This is a story about cynical criminals who have misled the Autochthonous American people to think that their votes count, that these private corporate political elections are public elections, and that the "Presidents" of the United States (Incorporated) and the United States of America (Incorporated) are the same as and hold the same presidential offices as their unincorporated American counterparts --- when they don't.

In our opinion, there should be no 2024 elections. It just results in more fraud and more misunderstandings and increasingly dangerous situations.

Both Donald Trump and Ms. Harris should be brought to Philadelphia for a Come-to-Jesus Meeting with the actual American Government; their respective corporations should get back to work within the limitations of their actual contracts; our credit-based financial system should be put in place without delay, and the truth --- the actual truth --- should be told to the American people.

In the midst of all this complete and utter hokum and despite the fine performances of those who are ignorant and those who pretend to be ignorant, discerning Americans have noticed something very peculiar.

While everything in American supermarkets now costs more, it is also coming from vastly different sources---- mostly Continental European sources. We are eating Irish butter and Italian pasta from the Old Countries, cookies from France --- the entire palate of consumer choices has been changed almost overnight, so that we are faced with new brands of nearly everything and American brands are disappearing, too, as if we are obligated now to eat food imported from the European Union and no longer know how to milk our own cows.

Like the change in governmental services administration, the European Union products are flooding the market and cost three or four times more than local products or products imported from South America. This change is being forced on us using subtle and not-so-subtle means --- like the senseless culling of millions of American chickens and destruction of American food canning facilities, slaughterhouses, and grain silos.

We don't need any more lies, any more Hollywood, any more fakery or any more fraud from anyone about anything, and that includes, but is not limited to substituted "presidential" elections and the reasons that European products are suddenly flooding what should be protected national markets.

Remember how the Brits used the moral issue of slavery as the means to undercut our cotton market and create a war-for-profit for themselves? Good. Now remember how they bilked the Chinese factory workers to undercut American workers. Remember how they have undercut American farmers to facilitate their land grabs.

And get angry. Very angry. But, when we say this, we mean --- get angry in a cold and calculating and determined way that does not waiver or get lost in the Land of Oz. No breast-beating. No victimhood. No stalking around talking about guns in the middle of the night.

We have guns. We know how to use them, but so what? We have no intention of fighting another Revolution to win what we have already won, what is legitimately and only ours, and what these false-hearted con artists owe us -- returned unharmed.

Remember that this is not about the causes of war or defending our country, as much as it is about knowing who we are, knowing the American Way of doing things, and doing it.

Let your commitment to fairness and compassion extend to everyone, while we continue to bear down on the actual criminals among us.
