  1. Quite often in UK, milk is a loss leader. It's used to get customers through the door in the hope, once in, the shoppers will buy other items.
  2. It depends where you are staying. I used Giffgaff in the south east of England and it was very good. I moved to the south west and it was rubbish. I switched to Lebara.
  3. He's going to have the gun "powder coated"., I would think.
  4. There is a welfare system, of sorts. However, one can't take out unless one first puts in. If the government were to set up a widespread welfare system, they will first need to collect a hell of a lot more taxes.

    sisaket

    I put Sisaket into Google maps, as you suggested. The link I posted is where it took me. It would be a good idea for you to learn to read Thai. You'll then understand that the name place in question is all one word. You might even be able to understand the fundamental issues with romanisation of Thai script.

    Like I said, there's only one poster way off with their thinking.

    sisaket

    Did you read the links posted? They negate the need for mind reading or a crystal ball. Not to mention the fact the OP, that you even took the time to quote, spoke about staying in "Sisaket City", where as the Sisaket you linked to is a very small subdistrict. With regards to "mind your own business", as I understand things, this is an open forum. On this particular topic, all posters, with the exception of one, are all in agreement with regards to which location is being discussed.

    sisaket

    No need. By stating the areas within Sisaket, such as Khun Han, and also linking to another topic regarding the same area, it was obvious to the educated ones that the topic is referring to Sisaket province in lower Isaan
  10. You quoted my post, with a link to figures issued , and then said "Even the media, which is somewhat dubious, and other politicians say the same". That's agreement. Nothing sad about it.
  11. There you go then. Thanks for finally agreeing.
  12. I don't live in any bubble. I have lots of Thai family and friends. I speak with them on a daily basis. I occasionally go out to a small place where I know there might be expats having a beer. If there are some there, I'll speak to them. If not, no problem. I don't go out of my way to either speak to or avoid expats.
  13. There are no specifics. VFS do not have the power to refuse applications, regardless of which country the application relates to. It's that simple.
  14. You did say "they had far too much power", in reply to a comment suggesting they can reject applications. That eoukd suggest, at least, partial agreement.
  15. It is...... https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn01403/
  16. You seem to be confused. As I've already pointed out, there are approximately 1 million immigrants in UK legally. That is, they arrived with the appropriate visa. There are currently approx one hundred thousand asylum seekers. Arrivals by boat are even less. So, no, most coming to UK do not throw their documents into the channel.
  17. You suggested over a million are not on a "legal visa". Why not just say "visa"? Anyway, your figures are way off. It's actually a million on visas. Those that arrive without visas are a fraction of that amount.
  18. On both counts your figures are hugely exaggerated. What is an "illegal visa"?
  19. My point stands. BTW, it hasn't been fed to me. It's my own opinion.
  20. Not accurate. About 1 million are here on visas. A fraction of that amount arrive without visas.
  21. Not really. They mainly work in Healthcare and Social Care. AI can't do those jobs. Uk nationals don't seem to want to. Hence, reliance on immigrants.
  22. Yes I have been to India. My point is, why do India need aid when they can afford wars snd a space program? Nothing cold about asking that question, us there? https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/uk/uk-still-gives-aid-to-india-dressed-up-as-business-investments-rather-than-direct-handouts-britain-watchdog/articleshow/98641083.cms And still happening.
