Yes, I read that in western main stream propaganda as well. Since then however, I’ve done more research and came across more compelling, believable and logical reasons which goes against the western narrative. Looks to me like you’re the one in the dark.

I must admit for various reasons I don't follow TASS.

"I've done research" you mean you follow Scott Ritter on YouTube, give us a break.😂😂😂

Yeah, sure. Hard to keep fighting when you have no men or equipment. Or no land, although if, and that’s a big if, Russia decides to continue to advance, they are unlikely to go past Kiev or Odessa. That should be a buffer zone big enough.

You haven't a clue, Russia's intention was to go to Kyiv and install their own puppet government but Ukraines self determination pushed the illegal invaders back. Sorry your 3 day Special Military Operation didn't go as you might have wished for!

You can't prove that I'm pro Putin as I've said nothing that would indicate that. As usual you are making it up.

 

Look at reality as opposed to the invented western propaganda myth, Russia can't lose, IMO. The best Ukraine can hope for is a draw, IMO.

 

Nukes provide an absolute guarantee that Ukraine can't win, IMO.

 

However, carry on drinking the western propaganda juice by all means.

Nukes and nobody wins. But your opinion at best is laughable.

The only way “around it” in my view is if the UK change the rules. But if they choose not to change the rules I think you won’t find a way around it without getting yourself in a great deal of trouble, and that will be more financially painful than a frozen pension. 

No disrespect Alex but I am trying to find out a way to receive a pension that I have worked for all my life, not to be fobbed off by a government that doesn't give a rats tail about us.

Are you having a wobbly, Bob?

Not at all, I am trying to research this injustice and reading 'he said she said' doesn't help in anyway, it would be nice to get hard facts instead of the usual negativity. I am not prepared to lie down without at first trying to find a solution to this and doing as much I can to resolve this ridiculous situation for myself at least, if other people wish to walk down the corridors of "we're all doomed" that is entirely up to them!

The problem is that is a “cunning plan” that even Baldrick would balk at. Countries are increasingly communicating with each other and swapping information on citizens. It’s only a matter of time before that ruse catches up on you and you’ll end up being prosecuted for fraud … not to mention having to pay back the extra with penalties, fines and interest. Simply not worth it.

A link was all I asked for, I wasn't looking for a sermon. 😀

There was a video on the subject posted a day or so ago explaining  the documentation that the International Pensions Section of the DWP requires to evidence residency.  You don't seriously think that they would just take the best part of half a million frozen pensioners' word for it, do you?!

Possibly, the DWP don't come across as the sharpest tool in the box, however I asked you for a link and can we assume you don't have one.

Providing DWP with copies of the Philippines in and out stamps in your passport proving that you are living there for the required number of days will be if you're not living there.

Do you have a link for your assertion please Lou?

Tell them you live in the Philippines then you get full pension!

I think that is a possible answer to those willing to think outside the box. I did an internet search and it's possible to open a Philippine bank account on line without even going to the Philippines. Surely finding a Philippine address can't be that difficult.

I know little about theology - and have little desire to deepen my knowledge - but is it really the case that the old rules (Old Testament?) are utterly irrelevant to Christians? A cursory Google search threw up the following extract penned by an American evangelist: 

 

"Both the Old and New Testaments make up the Word of God. The New Testament was never given to replace the Old Testament but rather to complete its story."
 

You might counter that this by suggesting this is a minority view? However, the point is that there are different interpretations of what it means to be a Christian. Why can't the same logic be applied to Muslims (and the Koran) rather than paint the totality of the religion - and all those who follow it - as evil?

 

I've never met a rabbi but I've had 

friends and acquaintances of various faiths (Buddhists, Christians, Judaism, Muslims). Some I thought clever and decent; others less so. No idea what that proves if anything.

Stop playing whataboutery, this topic is about another Islamic extremist that enjoys killing in the name of his Islamic God!
