Makosi: "Terrorists are treated better"
Discussion
Big Brother's Makosi has hit out at immigration officials threatening to deport her from the country and complained:
"Terrorists are treated better than me.''
The 24-year-old Zimbabwean has been told to leave Britain for breaking the terms of her working visa.
She quit her nursing job to appear on the Channel 4 reality show.
Makosi was stopped by police on Monday over a driving matter and officers passed her on to immigration officials to be questioned about her visa.
She said: "Terrorists don't even go through that. Terrorists are paid £2,000 a week to look after their health and stuff. A lot of illegal immigrants are paid to stay in this country and are fed by taxpayers.
"I am here paying my taxes and working but I'm treated like a thug.''
Makosi said she was stopped by police on the M25 for not wearing a seatbelt.
She recalled: "They checked my details and said there was a flag on my name telling them I had overstayed my visa so they needed to take me in for questioning.
"The immigration person took four hours to come out. They took my fingerprints and a DNA swab from inside my cheek.
"I felt like a criminal. It was not nice at all.''
Makosi's visa was curtailed and she plans to launch an appeal.
The former Big Brother housemate said she hopes to return to nursing - but cannot go back yet because she is too famous.
"I have a lot of magazine and TV things coming up and I can do a lot for charity. After that I can go back to my old life,'' she explained.
Comments please!

She's got a point though and, as I said before, she will only be deported as a publicity stunt for Bliar to try to show that he is dealing with the immigration problem facing this country.
A lot of 2 faced-hypocracy over this.
Perhaps if she claimed asylum, preached hate against our country, trained and incited bombers to attack our capital... she would get a nice 5 bedroom house, two grand a week and the blessing of our government. The fact that she is generally a law-abiding citizen (ignoring the visa thing) makes her an easy target.
FFS she hasn't murdered anyone. Bger... that's her problem...

Quitting your job and sitting on your ass for X amount of weeks being filmed is not working
iirc they get paid the minimum wage for appearing on Big Brother. (£4.70? * 11? * 7 * 24 = £8685.60)
Genuine question:
Shes pays her taxes How?
Surely if she has no work visa she can't work and get a proper tax code? How do they work out her tax code when she legally shouldnt appear on the system as she has no work visa?
Not really having much idea about tax laws I genuinely dont understand this?
Wonder if they can claim off her for money earned illegally?
"Makosi, you have been evicted, please leave the United Kingdom!"

Please tell me you are joking, they dont really get paid for being in that house doing nothing for 8 weeks.
If thats true then do they get paid for the time they are asleep

I'm pretty sure it is true. To appear in a TV programme you must get a fee (probably to create the contract) and because of the nature of the programme your fee is ongoing, so they have to be paid the min wage.
