Then it became more and more clear:
- there is no easy breakup, it's mayor headache
- there is no easy trade deal (with the EU or anybody else)
- there will be massive short time disruptions
- there will be lots of long time problems, things get more expensive, companies move out, fewer jobs, etc.
One would think that the people who believed 3 years ago that things will get better should by now know that that is not the case. There is no upside of Brexit. Or if there is one nobody discovered it yet.
And still so many people support Brexit. Might it be related to their limited IQ?
It was suggested after the referendum that perhaps IQ levels of those supporting Brexit were lower on average. Of course that was poo pood as cynical and not having any supportive evidence. Irrespective of that there can now be no doubt given what has come to light since regarding predicted outcomes of Brexit that perhaps it was more that people wanting Brexit were just simply gullible and more easily convinced by politician's lies.

Higher walls and speed traps will never stop dangerous and reckless driving. Correct driving proficiency training and enforcement of traffic laws would help though but will still never solve the problem of a particular mindset..

What will it take to convince rank and file Brexiteers.
Possibly free lobotomy's for all Brexiteer voters on the NHS once Boris has sold it of to US health insurance companies ????

Hi ..but am i right in saying you need certificate of residence from immigration for renewal of licence thank you
Renewed my license only yesterday. It was the fourth one in Thailand. For the first time they did ask for a residence certificate from immigration together with passport etc etc together with 555 baht, an increase from 5 years ago.
How does your UK pension arrive and what code?
in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

Actually not just a Citibank issue. When the issue of requiring income to be denoted as a foreign transfer into a Thai bank first arose I changed my UK state pension and a private pension to be remitted directly to my Thai Bangkok Bank account. My UK state pension arrived denoted as bathnet and my private pension as internal transfer.
Quickly reverted to being paid into my UK bank and remit to Thailand by other means to ensure that they are shown as FTT
