GB News Co-Owner Accuses Ofcom of Bowing to Left-Wing Pressure
Tiger1980 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
It’s well known that the British establishment is trying to close GB news down. I personally watch BBC , Sky and GB news and while GB does like to offer an alternative point of view, in fact on most occasions they invite a participant offering a completely different point of view to their presenters the other media outlets are very restricted in what they will transmit. This is possible why GB news is the fastest growing news agency in the UK. Already overtaking Sky and even BBC on occasions. -
Tommy Robinson to be released from prison early
Tiger1980 replied to hotandsticky's topic in UK & Europe Topics and Events
Watch the section were a Muslim girl from Rotherham defends the Muslim groomers, she mentions that her father is a taxi driver but forgot to say that the majority of the groomers in Rotherham were in fact Muslim and taxi drivers. I would like to suggest to all those people who disagree with him. just watch the full video with an open mind the same as those Oxford university students. Many of whom opposed his views. -

Well you go and watch French TV and then give us your unbiased take. And then we can see if it differs. The only problem is you will not as you prefer to knock the British at every opportunity. -
Starmer’s Brexit Reset: A Strategic Shift or a Sacrifice?
Tiger1980 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Been watching French TV this morning, interestingly their take on the negotiations do not coincide with yours. They seem to think they’ve played Starmer for a fool. They cannot believe how easy it was to basically take over the British fishing grounds. -
i think the reason Labour did not lose more council seats can be attributed to the fact that Angela Raynor decided to postpone elections in some areas,especially labour areas. It’s just a shame that we will not have a GE this year as according to numerous polls Labour would be wiped out.

What is up with tattoos and tourists / expats here?
Tiger1980 replied to Maxbkkcm's topic in General Topics
Up to about 25-30 yrs ago the only females that iI noticed with a tattoo were bar girls. Now while it’s more of a fashion statement, I personally do not like them on females and still tend to think of them as ladies of the night. -
NHS from day 1, although my son Thai born with British citizenship was required by a foreign born bureaucrat at the NHs hospital to prove his residency even after 4 yrs in the UK. Illegal Economic migrants can make use of the NHS on day 1.Same for dental treatment for which a British citizen may have to Waite weeks/ months and then be required to pay.

When you return your state pension reverts to the pension applicable to that date. Should you return to Thailand within 2 yrs your pension will return to the rate of your previous frozen pension. If you remain in the UK for 2yrs or more and then return to live in Thailand, your pension will once again be frozen to the rate of when you return. Nobody has mentioned that pensions paid by local government or other government departments are not frozen. The same applies to the high pension received by MP. Therefore we must conclude that Their cost of living increases each year unlike those suffered by those on a frozen pension.

it is successive British governments who have refused to make an agreements with most other countries, mainly Canada,Australia, New Zealand etc etc. By living in Thailand he is actually saving the British Government money as he does not receive a free bus pass, possible subsidised housing and of course the use of the NHS. Just think if all the elderly British ex - pats returned home the NHs would collapse. He and all the elderly ex - pats are in fact saving the British Exchequer billions a year, what I cannot understand is why successive government have not been savvy enough to realize that by encouraging the elderly to emigrate the country would save a fortune. Another factor to consider is that British pensioners receive approximately £10,000 pa, maybe after paying into the system for 40+ years, while the cost of the Illegal Economic migrants is approximately £42,000 pa.

Xi Jinping is not satisfied with winning the trade war

You mean like Makrons .E.U is trying to bully the U.K from becoming closer to the USA. -
I think it’s you that is the arrogant one. Some people including myself have found it very different to learn Thai or any foreign language, while others seem to pick it up quite easlly. Same as the ability to learn a musical instrument, not all can do. I have one friend who can speak many languages, yet has difficulty in adding 2+2.

I remember 20-30 yrs ago a German lady was killed on a zebra crossing in Ao Nang. Then for the next couple of months the police actually did there job and made sure vehicles stopped for the pedestrian on the crossing. Then it became too much of an effort and consequently the drivers reverted to their selfish driving style.

My Uk pension has just gone up now nearly £800.00 / month or about 34,500 baht. Don’t believe everything the UK government tells you.

Thailand Cracks Down on Shady Massage Parlours
Tiger1980 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Tried many massage shops in Hua Hin for a proper Thai massage as trained by Wat Po. Unfortunately no success as they all wanted to provide the extras. In fact I was actually thrown out of one shop for refusing to have a happy ending, understandable I suppose as that’s how they make the most money.
