Maybe be a good idea for set price from here to there, and have a bill board where all taxi is waiting, people don’t have to ask the price then, if they don’t like the price, no nead to get in conversation. Better still why do the police not make the taxi use the meter, saves any problem, do the taxi people not realise if they used the meter more people would use the taxi.

Do not attempt to use logic with Thai mentality

Fairly useless without aircraft don't you think? 

Rome wasn't built in a day. The aircraft were available from day one. The delay of supply, is the seller having problems after a major incident just prior to delivery.

All history and most try not to repeat the past by learning from it. Holding a grudge is never a good thing, it only causes problems.

This isn't an "anti-drunken driving campaign" this is arresting drunk drivers. A campaign against drink driving should have started weeks ago with wall to wall hard hitting adverts on billboards and tv! When will this nation ever learn.

When will this nation ever learn..........How long have you got?
 

Retired at 65 2006. I started out with nothing and there's still a whole sh!t load of it left. I have pensions which are index linked but I don't touch them. 6 of us live off the business we started 9 years ago, which is enough, thank you.

  "Granted, policies on Asean have never generated many votes for the parties, but things could be different if millions of Thai voters were given the knowledge of what’s at stake"........Therein lies the problem. Thai voters are kept in the dark regarding that which may advance their knowledge and understandings of possibilities outside their own country. From day one they have it drummed into them that the world revolves around Thailand. And God forbid they question their supposed betters.

This is for those on O-A visa. It does not  impact those on retirement extensions?

 

You only get this extension when you have a Non O

 

 

And you back this up with what kind of guarantee?

This is what every imbecile cheering this operation on hasn’t considered yet. It might end or they might go after older white males who forget to add a Moo number to their forms. Xenophobia is alive and kicking in Thailand, and usually more so in the ranks of the apes running this place.

 

Just yesterday you have a general saying that foreigners commit all the crimes here against Thais, and he means it. We’re not fighting legit rules and common sense here, we’re fighting against people like this who hate (or fear) us so deeply that they are unable to see past their viewpoint, blaming foreigners for all of their problems. 

 

Today it’s the black man and Indians, six months from now it could be raids on the homes of every retiree and married foreigner, looking for anything that gives them a reason to show them to the door. It could also be an indirect attack, where they double the financial requirements and raise the age limit by 10 years. How many would that hit?

Don't give the clowns too many ideas. It may come back to bite us. We already have one Big Joke who can't count.

General terms for these type of students is, snowflakes.

no cos you cant teach stupid 

Maybe not, but these people do make every effort.

Only once felt threatened in the UK, that was 14 years ago. Fortunately I was close to a bus stop with a bus approaching, I hopped on and left the maybe problem behind. My last few visits in the past 5 years have been uneventful but that maybe due to the locations I visited?

The problem is getting the washing materials.  Very overpriced in supermarkets.  Home Pro has some that is better value but sometimes do not seem to have.   Be aware rats love to eat the wires in dishwashers.

As I don't keep rats in my house, perhaps you had best do something about the ones in yours.

Insure and go? More like Flog it anf Leg it would be a more suitable name.

I think UK banks and B/socs now pay interest on cash deposits and bonds gross ( ie no tax deducted ).

If the interest exceeds £1000, tax will be deducted

With the OP being on a state pension, the DWP website says they cannot touch your'e state pension.

I know it's not the DWP the OP is dealing with, I may be wrong, but does this not apply to anyone? Is it not UK law that people must always be left with enough money to live on, and no one can touch your'e state pension?

Not exactly true. Your state pension is included as income and if the income is over £11850, current amount, then you are taxed on the amount over that figure.

To my knowledge, no one would get a DWP pension of this amount. Aslo, Nationeide Building Society would deduct tax on any interest before paying said interest. I am sure this is a scam email. I would suggest, as others have stated, contact the HMRC direct via phone. Look up their phone details seperatly from the email received.

Did they not bring in a law saying red plates can only be used for a very small number of days/ The plates belong to a motor dealer, so they should know which vehicle was using their plates when an offence was committed. 

Not all red plates belong to dealers, It is very easy to get a set of red plates made. I know of at least 3 places that make them to order, in a very small area of the town. You only have to ask to pointed in the right direction.
