    That's as maybe but in the time between his claim for asylum and processing he should have been kept in a secure detention centre - preferably a former military base along with all similar illigal entrants and  deported with the minimum of investigation as to his reason for requesting asylum after wandering around Europe as it is alleged

    It's not as if Britain has no experience of dealing with illegal immigrants and economic migrants.  Hong Kong under British rule kept them in secure detention centres before processing and repatriation.  For Chinese illegal immigrants from the Mainland it was the next day.  For the Vietnamese the HK Govt footed the bill until their refugee status was decided; whereupon they were either shipped back to Vietnam or allowed to settle in HK or another foreign country.  I'm not sure if the UNHCR ever settled the bill.

    I need to fly from Bangkok (probably DMK) to the North sometime in the next 2 weeks. I'll be buying some property and the sellers (a group of farmers) are insisting that I pay them in cash. The sum is 5M baht. I don't want the hassle of trying to withdraw that amount in cash from a branch far from where I live, so the only real option is to carry the cash with me (no option for bank transfer, cashiers cheque or anything else).

     

    Am I likely to have any issues during security carrying this amount of cash? Driving is another option, but it's a 10 hour drive which, although I've done many times, I hate doing.

     

    Thanks.

    Try one of the armored car companies, see what they will charge for you to pay into their account and they deliver. They have insurance covering up to certain amounts in each vehicle.
