British Pensioner Struggles with Frozen Pension in Thailand

The PM isn't an immigrant. He was born in the Princess Anne Hospital in Southampton UK. His parents are Indian Abbs he may have Indian citizenship through that, although I don't know but he definitely isn't an immigrant. -
British Pensioner Struggles with Frozen Pension in Thailand
kimamey replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Two problems with that. As far as I'm aware the state pension is paid by those working. When they retire those then working pay for the pension of those who have retired. So when I was working I paid for the pensions of those who were retired. Admittedly it would have cost more if there hadn't been frozen pensions at that time, but times change. Sometimes people move to be with adult children who look after them, not always through choice. Times change, and so should the state pension. You'll notice they don't mind changing the age you receive the state pension despite what you thought was the retirement age when you were working. Also, I'm retired and I pay tax on all my pensions and on the rent I recurve for the flat I rent out. I pay VAT on fees to the letting agent and any other costs related to it. The only income I don't pay tax on is on foreign income which is zero. Just recently the PM said the government should look after those who had worked hard for their retirement. He didn't say it depended on where you decided to doyen your retirement. -
No "Legal Miracles" for Thaksin and Yingluck, Says Former Deputy PM

The army might shoot them of course as they did before. I wonder who Thaksin would blame if that happened. I doubt even he would try to blame Abhisit and Suthep this time. -

Paetongtarn Expresses Readiness Concerns for Prime Minister Role

It does beg the question, why was she one of the three candidates, and what if she'd been chosen. Not that she'd have made any decisions on her own. -
The nicotine is very addictive so it might make sense to classify that as an addictive drug, but where does that leave cigarettes?

Because the article is about Thaksin. If we included everyone we'd die before getting to the end. Also Thaksin supports and defends the military -
One dead, 30 injured in Singapore Airlines emergency landing
kimamey replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I always do. The problem is those who don't can end up causing injury to those who do. It's the same with the idiots who unfasten their belts just after touchdown, sometimes whilst the plane is still braking. Even as the plane taxis to the gate it can hit something. -

I wouldn't be surprised if he does go because if he did, someone would have to replace him. I wonder who could do that? -

Thailand offers visa-free travel to Russian visitors for 3 months
kimamey replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I don't think so, or at least not yet. But Thais are allowed to own property and companies, which isn't the case for westerners in Thailand. -

"Another video Jason shared showed him suffering from diarrhoea" I think I'll give that a miss, thank you. -
That's true. However it seems it was him who, despite promises, made sure that those apparently guilty of far worse than him, were never brought to justice.

According to this report, you might not be the only one. It sounds as if your having trouble keeping up. I'm getting past it myself to be honest. -
Passenger charges soar at six major Thai airports
kimamey replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
The A380 can carry over 800 but is normally outfitted for about 580 I think. There aren't many of those though. The rest are around 250 - 360, so most aren't around 600. I've no idea if the figures quoted in the article are correct. It wouldn't surprise me if they were wrong, as they seem to be good at that. -
I don't know why, but I get the impression you're not taking this seriously

We have no idea who these people are, they destroy there documents before setting sail from France, and have a ready made bunch of BS answers to start the asylum process. all 100% lies. That seems to contradict itself, plus it makes a a huge generalisation and I doubt with any evidence. Yes some do that and it's difficult to prove someone's religion or sexual orientation but how do you know that it's "all 100% lies". If it were that easy then they would be refused asylum, unless you have a talent for investigation that the Home Office doesn't I can't remember the percentage of asylum claims that are upheld but it's a majority. Some they will get wrong, but most they won't The health service missed Harold Shipman and Lucy Letby, that doesn't mean we should stop having nurses and GPs.
