Sir Mo Farah???

[Dark Vader]

Like the media have touched on, the Mo Farah documentary brought up more questions than answers. It's clear that a few people were aware of his true identity but the general public were not. In effect he has been lying to a hell of a lot of people for a hell of a long time. Can we believe his version of events now?

[Jerboa]

One way flight to Rwanda! 

[Dark Vader]

One way flight to Rwanda! 

Yeah probably steal someone else's name and get straight back in.

[maxxblue]

He was trafficked FFS.

[Ali Katt]

He was trafficked FFS.

No wonder he was so good at running.

[lillythesavage]

He was trafficked FFS.

Yep, as a 9 year old, been plenty of time for the truth to come out, cannot help thinking leaving it so long was to avoid prosecutions 

All seems a little to cosy, the sister in law of the trafficker taking him in, referring to her as that woman, could have saved others from a similar fate by coming clean earlier.

Little bit of putting himself back in the limelight too.

Didn't run fast enough in this instance

It's standard illegal immigrant behaviour.... Keep your head down until revealing your true name or nationality or religion or sexuality or family history will not cause any serious problems for you or anybody else.
I think the whole trafficking and enslavement angle is utter bollocks and he and his family/associates back then were willing and paying participants.

I'd have to concur with that.
It stinks a little bit.

[Watts.E.Dunn]

Well it appears the the home office arent going the take any action, and I suppose they have checked out his story and background ?...

Yes in 3 days well done THO.

Or it helps stop deportation  ,

Agree though, wonder if he was paid for the TV rights.

[smiths]

Well he was trafficked i assume against his will as a child, i further assume he had no choice so was a victim. He then made a life for himself here and changed his name, or it was changed for him.

While he left it till now to reveal this i have no idea, but it takes nothing away in my eyes that he later became a multiple Olympic Golf Medalist representing Team GB. Now seeing as where he was born gave him a great advantage over any home born Brits who had zero chance of winning the 5000 or 10000 metres then or now he didnt even take another possible winners place in the team. Good luck to Mo and he did a good job as a Team GB member. 

[simon07]

I saw him at the 2012 Olympics win gold for us. Quite a collection for tam GB.  Glad he made something of his later life and i am sad about his lost childhood years.

[RadioKid]

He was a young kid that was trafficked during a Civil War.

He made something historic of his life and achieved alot. I'm not sure why people are getting their knickers in a twist about him not revealing it till now. Well, what would you do?

Everyone has a right to a better life and all things considered, Mo seems like a hard working bloke.

There are some vile comments on here.

It is the failures of Govt departments yet again, not the man himself, this should have been investigated when it first came to light. Not him just given citizenship with a name that was not his, if true, there should have been prosecutions.

I see you say he and his family/associates, he was 9, he wouldnt of had any say in the matter as he was a young child. You may be right about why he didnt say anything till now, but as a child he was a victim as i see it, not an associate of his family/associates and to me he holds zero responsibility that he came here as a 9 year old.

[maxxblue]

There are some vile comments on here.

Agreed.

[lamboman]

There are some vile comments on here.

Which ones?
Mohammed has a somewhat chequered history with telling the truth do its no wonder people question him.

[Dark Vader]

I wonder what you will make of this then. Let's take it that his father was killed. Maybe in front of him. Absolute tragedy we all agree. There was a civil war going on right? What if that war was a proxy war and somehow he held the British government responsible and vowed to avenge the death of his father one day and many many days later he happens to be kneeling in front of our Queen waiting for a sword to be placed on his shoulder. Far fetched stuff of fiction right? What ever is conceivable is possible! and the reason they keep certain people OUT.....Most of the time.

My God, Her Majesty’s had a narrow escape!

What a ludicrous, bizarre post.

Indeed, and anyway he has already been knighted and i dont recall him doing anything illegal while being knighted. He has also met the Queen on other occassions and i dont recall him looking for revenge openly.

Reading this thread some of the posts dont seem to take into account when he came here he was a 9 year old child. He wouldnt of had a choice but to do as he was told. The only question is why he choose now to reveal what happened.

Apart from that he made something of himself here as an adult which i praise him for. To go from trafficked child to multiple Olympic Gold medalist and get knighted is some going. Well done Sir Mo.

Perhaps someone who pays for sex might suddenly become enraged at spending money on women and go on a mass murder run - OMG that is conceivable so the whole UKP membership should be slammed in jail.

Dick head.

[Dark Vader]

It was more of a What if scenario where someone with motive and intent could fly under the radar and destroy our way of life. Isn't that what the politicians are always telling us. They are monitoring thousands and have foiled X number of threats. I wasn't saying this was what the person who calls himself Mo was up to. The Met police have opened an investigation so lets hope they can get to the truth of the matter.

The Rwanda flights policy is despicable. But, for you, I am sure we could make an exception.

+1  its not like he chose to grow up here as Mo.

[PepeMAGA]

Let's concentrate on deporting the foreign criminals and extremists first I think.

Agreed. He was a child. Geez.

Why does it matter what he was lying about?  Are you lying about your life to people around you?  Your employer?  Keeping something "despicable" concealed?

[LLPunting]

There are plenty of citizens who have done more heinous things to individuals and society such that they should be stripped of privileges, rights and possessions, reduced to starting from scratch.  Plenty of infrastructure and levelling up projects that need manual labour.

Exactly and I believe he couldn't even speak English when he arrived yet to listen to him now you wouldn't know he wasn't born here, in fact you'd probably think he wasn't as he speaks English better than most home grown Brits

Illegal immigration is a problem but he should be considered a victim to have been trafficked at the age of 9 however he should also surely be held up as an excellent example of how positive immigration can be

Yeah the old "What If" again, you may now regret posting what you posted given the reactions you have had but it's a massive leap of faith / imagination to think he would have done that.

While the Queen does have security she is still also "On display" to the public so anyone with enough will to do so could try to have a pop at her.
Like Trooping the colour in 1981 when someone fired 6 blanks in a replica gun, obviously they were blanks but "What if" he had been able to get real bullets and a real gun

1981 must have been a good year for it as someone also used a real gun in NZ to try and kill the Queen

I'm sure the security service would have had more concern when she met Martin McGuiness a known IRA terrorist and part of an organisation that had already murdered Lord Mountbatten who was the Queens Cousin

Yes they should be in prison if they are British citizens and deported if not.

A child loses his father in a civil war. He's than taken from his mother and flown to a different country. Forced into child labour to earn his keep. He goes on to become a multiple Olympic champion representing the country which he is now a legitimate citizen of (whether in his own name or not, ie. refugee), bringing years of pride and joy to the sport-following UK public. This feat is itself is unbelievable given his early life, and yet you think he should've come clean to you, 'the public', prior to this point? At what point exactly would you have felt the need to tell the world about that part of your life?

Do all your friends and family know you fuck hookers? As an adult capable of making responsible choices, you may not always want to disclose all aspects of your life to the world for a number of different reasons.

Bet they wouldn’t be this twisted if it was a Ukrainian who was trafficked!! We all know exactly what such peoples thinking is!
Sick that they think it’s a joke for a 9 year old to be trafficked!
