  1. Actually, most of them are refugees.
  2. It's a stupid rule. Waitresses, dancers, cleaners...just need to be 18+.
  3. Sad, but very true.
  4. I'm not sure how seriously it was tried. The current system certainly isn't working, and working together with other European countries rather than the ridiculous Little Englander attitude of the current and previous governments can only be an improvement. I do accept, however, that it isn't going to happen - not for at least 5 years when the clamour to rejoin the EU may be unstoppable. ????
  5. I didn't see a question. I was just commenting on your post.
  6. I think you're confusing immigrants and refugees.
  7. My solution would be to rejoin the EU and negotiate an EU-wide quota system for refugees. Unfortunately, the spineless Labour party don't seem to agree, but I'm hoping that's just for appearances.
  8. "I , for one , am backing her . Do you agree ?" Good God, no! How anyone could back such a disgustingly bigoted woman is beyond me. I thought Priti Patel was bad.... The Election cannot come soon enough.
  9. A few years ago now, I remember being in a few Pattaya gogo bars that got raided for non-Thai workers and underage. The only girls taken away were the non-Thais and those under 18. That's if they hadn't already escaped when the raid tip-off alarm was raised!
  10. Yes, thinking that you can satisfy a partner who's only there because she's being paid is beyond delusional!
  11. 18 is OK for working as a dancer in a bar/club, unless the law has changed recently.
  12. Quite likely, but hopefully most are pregnant due to a consensual relationship with a boyfriend. Very different from children being prostituted.
  13. I hadn't realised Russia were in the World Cup! Surely, the Thais will be supporting England? ????????????????????????????????
  14. Indeed, Americans' understanding of WW2 is severely distorted! Maybe because they also haven't been able to win many wars since WW2!
  15. Did you get an official receipt?
  16. Well said. Maybe it can be a force for good and show up the Qatari government for what it is. And maybe it will be coming home...????????????????????????????
  17. "World" series or not, baseball is one of the world's greatest sports, particularly on TV, unlike cricket.
  18. Anyone would think (from some of the comments) that crimes of jealousy are uniquely a Thai problem!
  19. Indeed, it's very much a local problem, although the problem is mostly because the locals don't think it's a problem!
  20. Not much demand for it from Thais, and most fans would stream it anyway. Pulse TV has it, not that I care now that the Dodgers have been elimintated.
  21. If you read the thread, I have already bought a Macbook Pro and I'm delighted with it. (The thread can be closed if necessary, as I had my answer).
  22. Just perfect.
