    Now I know who has benefitted from the plush 5 star amenity filled State sponsored quarantine facilities.  Wow, dog and pony show now it seems.

    The OP is referring to the withdrawal of state-sponsored quarantine facilities and clearly states that those who have used it will, in future, have to use ASQ (the plush 5 star amenity filled private quarantine) facilities where the cost is paid directly to the hotels, not the state.

    The British embassy will no longer by tickets. They will liaise with family, or friends to come up with the money. 

    They never did buy tickets without a repayment agreement but if there is no family, as a last resort, the government will loan the money for tickets with very strict restrictions on the deportee when back in the UK.

    Lou, chill dude, you're reading stuff that's clearly too deep and difficult for you to understand.

    Not at all, I've been reading stuff that is nonsense, as you well know, hence your having nothing to back up your pickup quality related claim.

    Debts incurred for family purposes is the key. If a hospital bill is for family purposes i am not sure . I would of thought it is , but i don't know for sure .

    Worth knowing 

    Yes, that is the key...and a more accurate claim.

    Is the "CTPL" (compulsory third party insurance) which you mention the same as the "mandatory basic motor insurance" mentioned by Kalasin Jo?

     

    If yes, in the case described by the OP,

    1. who is the third party who would be covered by the CTPL?
    2. would the CPTL cover the medical expense of the the OP's wife, who, as far as I understand it, is not a third party in that accident?

     

    1.  The 3rd party would be anyone who has an injury or damage claim apart from the driver/owner (1st party).

    2.  No, it wouldn't cover her if the cover is TPO.

    Afaik that's basically correct, but limited to the amount which the insurance would have covered.  With her being at fault the insurance would have paid 30k, so that should be the most she has to pay.

    That seems to suggest that, in the case of very serious injuries requiring, say, lengthy Intensive Care treatment and surgery, the hospital cannot charge those with no insurance any more than B30k regardless of how large the bill actually is?   That does seem like a great bargain but does not seem to make a lot of sense.

     

    So, as an example, an at-fault, uninsured road accident victim that incurs a B1,000,000 hospital bill only has to pay B30,000?   No insurance, nothing to pay over B30K?  Is that the case, really?

    The Ranger has 70 percent of its parts content sourced within the US and Canada.

    And 30% made or sourced in the Far East! 

     

    "The Ranger has 70 percent of its parts content sourced within the US..."

    "Sourced in the US"?  That's not the same as "made in US" and, presumably, if those parts were made in the US the report would say that they were.

    The fact remains you are gambling on the reliability of MG versus established provenance of Toyota etc

    Yes, you're right, the MG could well turn out to be more reliable than a Toyota pickup.  Toyota's provenance is irrelevant to MG's reliability

    it’s just another indictment of the real worth of these vehicles with no reliability Providence 

    What evidence is there of MG pickups not being reliable and, presumably, by "Providence" [sic], you mean "provenance"?   Provenance is irrelevant to reliability so you see it as relevant to what?  Certainly not relevant to the OP's question.

    OMG, you can't compare the reliability of Ford with a Chinese British car.  Night and day difference.

    Based on what?   MG does not have a reputation for anything other than reliability so far, so, presumably, you're saying that the Ford is not as good, yes?

    The MG has some good points. 

    So, the MG is "rubbish".   The MG "has some good points".   The good points are "rubbish", then?

     

    Make up your mind.

    Serious question, how do you come to that conclusion?  Have you driven both, for instance?

    The MG is simple and solid also...and not built in India!

    You think Thai's are better than Indians in assembling a simple car ????????????????????????

    You know any different?

    Nobody knows what the long term effect these vaccines will have. My advice would be is wait for the better vaccines.

    Your advice assumes that the long term effect of any of the vaccines is known and that the known long term effects are not good.   Neither is the case.

     Maybe you're advocating that waiting for an alternative vaccine that has not yet been invented but is in the works "will be better".  Why?  The long term effects of new vaccines won't be known either!
