    Hello,
    I am writing a review on what i have heard before my court date.
    This review is based on the experiance and treatment i have recived being here.
    I am a 32 year old trans woman being discriminated agiast because i am from BIrmigaham, England not london so im not sure why people think that.
    The experiance i get because of my gender is i get abuse, death threats and i get my face smashed because of my gender and im sorry but the police in england dont care at all they dont do anything about it but trying to escape for your own safety you get penalised for it because no one cares at all, so i have nothing to lose all my family are dead, i have no one left, im on my own so i literally dont care what happens to me no more so if get deported i get deported. i have been told alot from the lawyer i had and told me told stand a chance of winning my case because England and the USA are allies. so for a brtish citzen like myself stands no chance of winning a immigration case. i am familiar of both laws as i study and research all the time. trying to keep your self safe in your country like england is impossible because where ever you or I moved to the abuse will not stop and i experiance this abuse everyday too scared to come out of my home because the abuse wont stop.

    I rest my case.

    Rude, obnoxious and no civility towards prepared defense counsel. Should be removed without thought.

    Undignified, impatient, angry, rude, ignorant of the law, and overall a huge displeasure to appear before. Former prosecutor with US Attorney’s Office; extremely dismissive of defense counsel. Shrill voice and ugly inside and out. Should be fired immediately.

    This judge has no experience in immigration law and simply does not know the law with respect to the Immigration and Nationality Act. She should be removed immediately
