The Cyclist

How about looking at it from a different angle ? In the UK, rights and freedoms for law abiding citizens, have been getting eroded for decades. It would appear and come across as criminals having more rights and freedoms than law abiding Citizens. Neither for it or against it. https://www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/article/digital-id-compulsory-keir-starmer-plan-0n8vmp293 If it a choice of being fleeced for ever increasing amounts tax, or curtailing the rights and freedoms who are abusing the UK, with impunity. Then bring those Digital ID's on.

Free to do whatever you want as long as it's legal. One of the joys of being in Thailand. Personally, I have never had an issue with money in Thai banks, across 3 accounts and 2 banks.

I was being nice, by setting up your own thread, where you could rant and rave to your hearts content, without incurring the wrath of the Mods, by trying to drag threads off topic. You didn't upset me in the slightest. I couldn't give a damn about agents, or those that might use them. Doesn't affect my life in the slightest. Unlike the Illegals flooding across the channel, that costs me ever increasing amounts of tax to pay for them.

Under Freedom of movement, that you keep extolling the virtues of. There was an estimated 3 million EUers in the UK. 6.5 million applied for the right to remain in the UK. According to news outlets like the Guardian and BBC, further millions fled the UK back to their homelands. Mentalists, cannot, will not, or simply refuse to see, the problems that this creates on every public sector in the UK. * Housing * NHS * Dentists * Policing * Social Services * Welfare Just 1 of the reasons the UK has / is, heading down the S bend of the sh*tter

In for a shock them 😀😀

The thread is about Farage, not migrants. The only data that matters, concerning Farage, can be seen here https://www.ipsos.com/en-uk/uk-opinion-polls Reform way ahead in the polls Farage out in front as the most popular political leader. The only question that people need to be asking themselves is, how can this be ? The logical and sensible answer is, that the public recognizes busted flushes ( Labour & Tory ) and are looking for change, and Farage is at least, offering them the change that they are looking for. Of course, idiots will come along, and howl that the UK is full of Right wing knuckledraggers, and that is why they are supporting Farage / Reform.

Nah, I only understand humour 😀😀

He didn't do anything to rile me up. I'm laughing at him by starting the thread on his behalf.

If you could actually read the OP. You would have understood that I started the topic on behalf of someone else. To save him posting his pet hates across unrelated threads.

It goes much further than the UK. Didn't you realise ? This thread might be pertinent to the UK. But it is a problem that encompasses, most, if not all Western Countries.

No it isn't. Exactly as it should be. Have the qualifications, skills and experience the UK needs, you are welcome ( Skilled Visa route ) Don't have the qualifications, skills and experience the UK needs, see ya, wouldn't want to be you. Unrestricted freedom of movement, can arguably be considered the epicenter of a lot of the UK's current problems. Which really started to take off in 1997 https://www.statista.com/statistics/283287/net-migration-figures-of-the-united-kingdom-y-on-y/

You think that was sarcasm ? Have a look at the videos in this link, should be quite close to your heart. It will give you an idea of what is going on in that small Country called Ireland. https://m.youtube.com/@NoRiskNoReward1984/videos A severe backlash is coming.

He cannot get his head around that. Which is why I advised him not to compare apples with oranges. It still didn't sink in. So I opened the thread for him to rant and rave, and hopefully others might be able to educated him on the difference between apples and pears.

I didn't miss anything. Here is the complete paragraph Your analogy was totally wrong https://www.gov.uk/health-care-worker-visa You're welcome

@JimCM A couple of questions that need your input.

Well, to take you back to your French Doctor analogy So your analogy was wrong. And this visa will do nothing to assist the Government, the BMA and anyone else in the NHS sphere, extracting the finger and getting their house in order internally. No need to thank me.

There is. If you took the time to research how many Brits cannot get training places. https://www.bbc.com/news/education-34326453 The BMA is also complicit in this. As are Universities. The whole NHS model is wrong, starting with training and recruitment. Quickly followed by those who are actually self employed. And the Gateway to the NHS " GP's " mostly being a Private enterprise, not part of the NHS. And until you sort those basics out. There is no hope for the NHS.

You didn't touch any nerve. As stated in the OP I thought that was rather simple to understand.

You should go the the Thai Authorities with all your evidence. Crack on.

Nothing to do with the Topic In the spirit of kindness and generosity. I have created a thread where you can let loose. Have at it, in here

A thread for @JimCM to rant and rave. C'mon Jim, let it all loose in this thread. Rather than trying desperately to derail other threads, that are nothing to do with Thailand.

You seem to be having difficulty, let me try again Once again, perhaps it will sink in this time

Just the warm up act for when the real fun begins. The internal bloodbath when the recognition of a Palestine State is formally announced.

As I pointed out above. You can get as hypocritical as you want, stamp your feet and talk absolute " Nonsense " When you come across someone who * Paid people traffickers to get them into Thailand. * Arrived on a rubber dinghy illegally * Procured the services of a Human Rights Parasite, to halt their deportation from Thailand. And you can also stop trying to compare apples with oranges.

By some bizarre twist of fate. I have just hit someone else on another thread, with the exact same phrase. apropos to the thread https://www.standard.co.uk/news/islamic-sharia-council-law-london-marriage-divorce-b1222943.html
