A lovely story and so nice to know she was born a free citizen and will go up in a country free of tyranny, will receive an education and will have opportunities she would otherwise never have had. I wish her a happy, long and prosperous life and yes indeed the heartwarming story of the way she came into this world will be something she can delight people with...
TTT; you suggested that the baby would eat out on her birth story for the rest of her life. Were you pleased about that, or did you think that it would be a bad thing?
In fairness, I think jno and atheist just misunderstood the OP. I'm sure Tora just meant that there's a story to be told for the kid, not that it's going to a cash cow for her.
Good luck the her and her family. I hope they find peace and happiness in the UK, like the rest of the evacuees we've taken on.
Mozz, I just thought that throughout her life it could come up, "I was born on am evacuation flight from Afghanistan to Birmingham" - you can imagine it in the future. I once won a beautiful baby contest and that comes up now and again, that's what I was thinking, I didn't need the chuckle brothers trying to denigrate my intentions.
I know what you meant and that's how I interpreted it. I guess your past anti-immigration stance made it easy for the others to misread your intent. For the record though, two people do not represent "the left". They just represent themselves. No need to bring politics into it at all.
hogwash, TTT, it's never been me who calls refugees and asylum seekers scroungers, because I don't believe it. So if I say it, you can bet I've got my tongue in my cheek.
