  12. "I didn't seek asylum. I told them I was an economic migrant," said Artan. "They gave us plastic bags with our belongings; I was told tomorrow morning you will arrive in Tirana." One of the reasons Artan was deported was that he was honest about his reasons for travelling to the UK. He did not try to claim asylum, he insisted he was there to work. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-63673925
  13. Record numbers of Albanians claiming to be victims of slavery ‘to avoid deportation’ Figures come days after it emerged that Albanians accounted for nearly four in 10 migrants crossing the Channel over six-week period “They know they cannot claim asylum, but they are using this ploy that they have been trafficked. It is another barrier to removal which means they cannot be instantly sent back to Albania.” https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/08/11/record-numbers-albanians-claiming-victims-slavery-avoid-deportation/
  14. Nothing Personal but all schoolchildren when they leave school are unskilled regarding the workforce And given that the current EU Youth unemployment In October 2022, 2.872 million young persons (under 25) were unemployed in the EU, of whom 2.326 million were in the euro area. The EU has no need for unskilled young people under the age of 25 entering the EU and taking jobs away from EU young people
  15. Not always I know many people that have British passports currently working in Europe They have a specialized skillset of which there is a worldwide shortage, the EU businesses they work for handle all the necessary paperwork that is required for them to legally work in the EU
  16. Youth unemployment figures UK 399,000 young people aged 16-24 were unemployed in July-September 2022, down 29,000 from the previous quarter and down 77,000 from the year before. The lowest level of youth unemployment since records began in 1992 was in June-August 2022, when there were 372,000 unemployed young people. The unemployment rate (the proportion of the economically active population who are unemployed) for 16–24 year olds was 10.5%. This is up from 9.1% in the previous quarter but down from 11.2% the year before. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn05871/ These figures indicate your unskilled children have more opportunity seeking employment in the UK
  17. Youth unemployment In October 2022, 2.872 million young persons (under 25) were unemployed in the EU, of whom 2.326 million were in the euro area. In October 2022, the youth unemployment rate was 15.1% in the EU and 15.0% in the euro area, both down from 15.2% in the previous month. Compared with October 2021, youth unemployment increased by 102 thousand in the EU and by 81 thousand in the euro area. https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/documents/2995521/15497496/3-01122022-AP-EN.pdf/eaaa1272-82e4-2456-ed30-e6f29f801bd8#:~:text=Compared with October 2021%2C youth,thousand in the euro area.&text=In October 2022%2C the unemployment,5.8% in the previous month. It would seem to me that the EU has sufficent unemployed people under the age of 25 so no need to increase it further by importing people from non eu countries

  21. Clearly you didn't bother to read the link provided You’ll need a work permit to work in most EU countries if you’re a UK citizen. In most cases, you’ll need a job offer from your chosen country so that you can get a visa to move there https://www.gov.uk/working-abroad#:~:text=You'll need a work,what you need to do. So once your children apply for a position in an EU country and the employer assists your children to get a work visa My understanding if you want to work as a Teacher in Thailand your are required to obtain a work permit prior to starting work
  22. There is nothing preventing your children working and living in Europe https://www.gov.uk/working-abroad#:~:text=You'll need a work,what you need to do.

  25. Not really you just need to look Example flagship store Xiaomi Poco ( for anyone that isnt aware Xiaomi has a number of different brands that target different customers Xiaomi, Redmi and Poco are examples of some of their brands they may have others. Its important to note that security updates and Android os updates are based on the date that they phone was released into the market not the date that you buy the phone. So if security updates and Android os updates are important to you look for phones that were released into the market in 2022 ideally in the last quarter of 2022 POCO M5S 4GB+64GB ฿4,650.00 or POCO M5S 4GB+128GB ฿5,140.00 https://www.lazada.co.th/products/poco-m5s-4gb64gb-4gb128gb-15-i4213861380-s16599070323.html? Xiaomi Poco M5s Android update status Currently: Android 12 The latest official Android version available for Xiaomi Poco M5s is Android 12. This is the same Android version the phone was originally launched with - it hasn't received any Android updates as of yet. This phone was originally released on 9 / 2022. Upcoming updates? Expected: Android 13 and Android 14 Xiaomi has promised to deliver these major Android versions for Xiaomi Poco M5s: Android 13 and Android 14. However, this is only the manufacturer's promise, as far as we know - Xiaomi might release even further updates to the phone later or might end support earlier on. https://www.androidupdatetracker.com/p/xiaomi-poco-m5s Poco normally provides 2 year's security updates Phones that have been updated to Android 13 or the brand has indicated they will update are listed here Android 13 Update Tracker Android 13 was officially released on August 15th, 2022 https://www.androidupdatetracker.com/android/13 https://www.kimovil.com/en/ is a good site for comparing smartphones also it will show release date of the phone I use a Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro good phone but over budget as far as the op price range and was released in March 2021 so nearly 2 years of security updates and Android os updates used with maybe 1 year of updates left we see some messaging apps that have issues warning that they will no longer support older versions of the Android os so it not only banking apps
