  1. it's a public place not a business
  2. not to mention winter fuel allowance, lol the uk government need to clamp down on this bs, the money they save can be spent pensioners . first thing I would do -biometric id cards, absolute id when claiming anything, oh the general public do not agree -well seriously it would stop the huge fraud going on in the uk right now
  3. does't really matter, if you are not in the country (excluding short holidays) you are not entitled to benefits - pensions are slightly different were like benefits you are not entitled to increases if out of the country - look up - 🇬🇧 ORDINARILY resident, I know people here claiming for benefits they are only entitled to while living in Thailand - they risk a prison term if caught I knew a guy geting paid his dead mothers pension for years
  4. weii it is a lot worse than that, there are benefits being claimed using this same method, I don't agree with frozen pensions but blatant benefit fraud is another matter, they could easily catch these people by checking passport records, for now they don;t
  5. if the government cannot control the central bank put someone in charge that can be controlled, the BOT is no longer independent
  6. you think this idiot will ever be inside a Thai court ?, you won't hear anything more about this money talks, hope he has deep pockets
  7. maybe you do, are you part of an ethnic minority
  8. i think it likely that some physical contact took place which is technically assault but this is getting ridiculous, apologize and move on
  9. well as courageous as it is, I have lived here a very long time - spent a lot of money, maybe they need to expand that a little and consider those that have contributed to Thailand for many many years
  10. you are correct, assaults on tourists is reserved for Thai only lol
  11. Live monday email notifications not working again, seems random
  12. no kidding maybe doesn't apply in a 3rd world corrupt banana state
  13. no surprise there is there jail this ###
  14. in the west he would be charged regardless of what money was offered
  15. guess who got a bigger payoff than the victim jail the ###, this country really bothers me, makes me angry
  16. jail this ###hole, sure pay compensation 1m baht (at least) then lock the ### up for at least 10 years
  17. maybe you want to focus on the adults, the children are victims
  18. it wouldn't make any difference, you cannot train stupid
  19. possible speeding road rage incident - you don't see many of those on thai roads RIP to the young man minding his own business that never saw it coming
  20. they are great at predictions not so much on actual figures after the fact
  21. how on earth does a strong baht help tourism ? they obviously need to do something different
  22. wow and it had exactly the opposite effect - the baht strengthened, go figure
