There is no way on this earth would I consider Cambodia for eye surgery, and I am a fan of Cambodia. I had my front teeth done down there with porcelain veneers at a great high quality place in Phnom Penn. Anybody that is doing OK in business that I know in Cambodia seeks treatment, check-ups, operations and procedures in Thailand. I myself, practiced what I preached, as I had eye surgery last year, cataracts and lens replacement, but I went to the best I could find in Wetherby, UK to an eye surgeon of good repute. I am too afraid to take chances with my vision. It was quite expensive at, 3800 GBP an eye, for the multi focal lens and the procedure, but how much is peace of mind. The Lenses are very different in price depending on what you opt for and can bump up costs considerably. British people are getting them done FREE OF CHARGE now in a conveyor belt type system in the UK, they are doing so many. It also is done in a matter of weeks, not months.

Absolutely right.

It was completely a new paragraph and separated by a huge chunk of advertising and continued afterward, that's how it was missed. Be slightly dumb to miss out something deliberately to allow AN detectives like you to jump all over an error, wouldn't it? Anyway, that was one judge's interpretation of it in 1999, and that's what it was interpretation. Now, it is all clear with laws in place to send them elsewhere.

Suit yourself! Give up your house for a family of illegal refugees if you feel so much inclined.

Well, we have seen the attitude and the viewpoint the government in the UK is taking. RWANDA, and the sooner, the better.

Never saw that ' omission ' but it changes nothing. Honestly, some of you on here appear to gloat about the difficulties and strains on resources that the UK is having with these illegal migrants.

From your link:- Full Fact writes: "A lot depends here on how to interpret which country people are 'coming directly from'. "It could be argued, for instance, that as the people crossing the channel are coming directly from France - which is not the country they initially fled - they don’t have the right to claim asylum in the UK.

You shouldn't seize on isolated incidents to try and taint the British servicemen in World War ll. There were obviously different attitudes then to now, and you can't put modern twists and values on historical events. I mean, when the Americans came over and were based in the UK, they expected the British to follow through with their ' color segregation bars' and the like, but were firmly rebuffed. Let's be honest, there are still instances now in 2024, where people are criticized and castigated in foreign countries for not speaking the local language, preferring their own

Try reading the links and reading my posts, they fit together and back each other up for anybody capable of reading at elementary level. Bye. Have a sunny day.

You are just deliberately obtuse. I won't answer any more of your baiting posts. Go make yourself useful somewhere, preferably Rwanda.

You just talk drivel. Complete unsubstantiated drivel. Is it too warm outside that you must stay in and just type nonsense to get a response?

I am not getting into this with you either when you are already supposed to know these rules and guidelines set out by the EU themselves. And it is easy enough for you to research this information online. https://euaa.europa.eu/asylum-report-2023/432-safe-country-concepts

Simple as this, they are supposed to settle and seek refuge in the first safe country, you are deliberately ignored this aspect of the rules. They are not doing this, they are making their way to the UK. Therefore, they are not following the rules set down by the EU themselves. They are choosing the countries they wish to reside in. So you can keep your links and whatever, what I am saying is irrefutable under the EU's own rules, which they are then disregarding and refusing, (as in the case of France), to take back these boat people. We then have the case of those saying they are persecuted and playing the system, pretending they are juveniles and exhaustive tests have to be done to prove their ages, pretending they are LGBTQ+ to try to obtain asylum, Muslims, who all of a sudden convert to Christianity, then have gone on to commit terrorist acts and unspeakable crimes once they have reached British shores, (outlined recently on LBC by multi award-winning Nick Ferrari).......... They are up to every trick in the book for the pure benefit of seeking asylum status. And the list goes on and on. Lastly, you go on to say they have little knowledge of Immigration law before they reach British shores. It's been featured in documentaries about sharp practice from immigration lawyers and alleged Asylum charities issuing booklets about ways around the system. What about those already here in the UK, advising their relatives abroad in France of how to circumvent the system and how to answer immigration officials. After all, they are well capable of phone calls and emails, you only have to look at them getting off the boats all armed with the latest cellphones!

Nonsense, You can't read.

Until they want all the trappings of being a Thai government representative when they go abroad. Then they want recognition of their position, whilst putting their kids through fancy education programs in the UK, USA and Australasia. They also want to partake and indulge in buying property in their own names in these places, and all the benefits they can take advantage of. This, whilst maintaining their xenophobic attitudes back in the comfort of Thailand, where they can carry on the illusion of their Demi god status in their own backyards.

And what about thoroughly investigating, properly, SERIOUS criminal behavior carried out against tourists?....... Rapes, murders, Armed robberies, gratuitous violence from mob handed motorbike taxi ranks, etc Throw him in jail? You've already decided he's too blame? Were you there? I am from the UK and I feel no shame whatsoever about being British........................BECAUSE......I don't behave in ways that I should be ashamed.

Well, if he is and that's true, ( which it isn't ) he's working in a job reserved for Thais without a work permit. In the Southern islands you will find plenty of Muslims and Muslim names!

11 pages and much ado about nothing, apart from a customer and taxi driver dispute. None of us were there, so it is just guesswork to decide whether the British man was cheated or you wish to go down the line it was an unprovoked attack on an innocent taxi driver. The driver wasn't seriously injured, so it seems a mountain out of a molehill. There have been far more vicious attacks committed by these taxi mafias than there have against them, and always described as ' a misunderstanding' a basket of fruit to go with a bruised ego, and a 500 baht fine, why is this different? However, it's anti farang couple of months, isn't it, especially on that island that never seems to be out of the news of late, either by accident or media driven.

Then stop posting like you are one, then.

The person collecting the rent will know who the owner is and where they are.

These are people who have gone about their applications the right way or manner. The vast majority are Ukrainians and Hong Kong BNO passport holders. And how many ILLEGALS just disappear into the mist without attending appointments or interviews, once they have got into the UK. We are seeing large arrivals now from India, Pakistan, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, and a host of other countries where there is NO CONFLICT. These are just people wanting to move to a ready-made country to improve their economic prospects. Those in boats arrivals have been deemed not to be real asylum seekers, more opportunistic migrants, these practices are fuelling the black marketeers from Albania and other criminal enterprises. They also know every trick in the book to avoid deportation assisted by smart ass immigration lawyers, such as refusing to give country of origin and grinning whilst they throw passports into the sea.

Ukrainians are genuine refugees and fleeing war and would be very happy to return to their home country as soon as the fighting ceases.

Back in the old days, guys like in the top photo above were happy to embrace British culture and blend in.
