THE question: Who was born in Somalia (Mogadishu) and entered the United Kingdom (England) as an eight year old non-English speaker?
A refugee asylum seeker with his family?
Even an “economic migrant?”
The answer: None other than Mohammed (Mo) Farah.
What is the price of the pronouncements of the British Government, media and popular perception of “migrant?”
To Mohammed/‘Mo’ – heartfelt congratulations on your sporting successes.
I hope that others might be afforded similar opportunities!
