I've always considered myself a foreigner. When I first arrived, people were telling me because of the situation I was in, maybe I should apply for a council flat and I thought, 'It's not my right'. I struggled to accept free schooling and the NHS - where I grew up, you pay your way.

I thought to myself, 'I can sit here and convince myself that I'm fat, black and ugly, so can't act', but that would be giving myself an unnecessary beating.
