Frozen in time: British expats losing out on pensions in Thailand
JonnyF replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Another reason I never bothered topping up my National Insurance when I left the UK and took every step possible to pay as little into the government pension scheme as I could. I would never trust the government to do the right thing by me. Better off with private investments where you can get to the money whenever you like, the goalposts aren't constantly moving to pay for government screwups on issues like illegal immigration, illegal wars etc. I feel very sorry for people who paid in all their lives and then get stitched up. But in my opinion the writing has been on the wall for several years. The government simply doesn't care about old people who paid into the system all their lives. It's basically a Ponzi scheme. -

Oh no. What's Kamala been up to this time? -
Le Pen Applauds Rise of Anti-Migration Movements Across Europe

Another fantastic, strong, brilliant woman. Best of luck to her, she's in the crosshairs of the left now and we've all seen in the US how they like to use lawfare against political opponents. -
Julian Assange: "I Pled Guilty to Journalism" in Bid for Freedom
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Brave man. Wouldn't be silenced and paid the price but will go down in history as one of the good guys. Freedom of the press is a cornerstone of every Democracy. Well, it should be... -
The man's a genius. The US is lucky to have him. Shame Cali scared him off, but the Liberal's loss will be another's massive gain.

I support the right to protest. As well as the freedom of speech (I know you're not a fan of that so much). But not when the protest causes the public massive inconvenience, stops people getting emergency medical treatment, attending funerals of loved ones etc. Given that you're such a fan of strong minded women, I'm surprised you're not supporting Meloni. A hint of misogyny perhaps? I think she's fantastic. You go girl!

Iran clearly hasn't learnt from Palestine what happens when you attack Israel. I feel sorry for their citizens, because Israel will now rightly defend itself with extreme prejudice and it won't end well for Iran. Get your wallet out again Joe. The iron is hot.

Macron Faces Leadership Struggles After Appointing New Prime Minister

Macron is a chameleon. He will do or say whatever it takes to maintain his power. -
Keir Starmer's Leadership Faces Challenges as Patience Wears Thin
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Hardly. Rayner would be a complete embarrassment to the country on the international stage. I can just imagine her meeting other countries right leaning PM's/Presidents, stubbing out her cigarette with her foot and pointing at them while shouting "Youze are all SCUM". -
Starmer's Brussels Visit Could Signal Shift in Brexit Relations
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
A referendum would be required to rejoin. Off the back of an election win that made it clear in the manifesto that there would be a referendum on the issue. Anything less would be deeply undemocratic and likely lead to civil unrest and legal action. -
Should have got your facts straight before saying the report was untrue and "it seems" he was 19 when they met. Yet here you are. His own lawyers confirmed it, confirmed in the ITV report (his employer). Can't get much clearer than this. https://www.itv.com/news/2023-05-28/schofield-first-met-colleague-he-later-had-affair-with-at-age-15 It's not innuendo. They met when he was 15, then he got him a job at ITV where he was a senior figure and then started the affair behind his wife's back once he was "legal". That's known as grooming. And adultery. With someone he groomed from the age of 15, 4 decades his junior. Nice guy. No wonder he loved the BBC. 😃

Austria's Far Right Seizes Historic Victory Amidst Political Turmoil
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Could the article mention "far right" any more times I wonder? 😆 The BBC are getting desperate when Europe starts rejecting left wing loony policies that are ripping up the fabric of many European cities. All they can do is label those who fail to go along with their ideology as "far right". Pathetic. Good to see Democracy prevail over the EU's undemocratic, failing Federalist left wing project. -
You stated he was 19. That is not true. He was 15. Then he helped him into televison at ITV where he wsa a senior figure. Then started having an affair with him later. There's a word for that - grooming. https://www.itv.com/news/2023-05-28/schofield-first-met-colleague-he-later-had-affair-with-at-age-15 You certainly seem interested in defending him, for some reason.

The Decline of the United Nations: A Toothless Global Forum

He's probably better suited to appearing at the UN than on Mastermind. Q. Who succeeded Henry VIII? Lammy ; Henry VII 😆 Q ; Name a blue cheese Lammy ; Red Leicester 😂 The only surprise was that he didn't precede every answer with, "As a black man, I believe you will find the answer is..." Clown. -
