  1. The school could go through legal proceedings to seek compensation, but I doubt it. More likely would be reporting you to the Labour Department and/or TCT, making it extremely difficult to get a waiver, licence or work permit in the future.
  2. My concern with Farage and Reform being in charge would be lack of policies outside of immigration. The two policies they did have for the last election, raising minimum wage to £15 and raising tax threshold to £20000, are even more worrying.
  3. Carry on all you like. My statement was true. Just as we have a right to live in Thailand, so long as we abide by the rules. That's true also.
  4. Like I said......... You are just confirming what I said. With the exception of your last paragraph, as it contains exaggerations. I don't understand why you come across as argumentative when you are showing what I said to be correct.
  5. As I said, they just need to go through a few easy procedures.
  6. That's one view. The other view works for me and has done for over 20 years.
  7. UK citizens have every right to live anywhere in EU. They just need to go through a few easy procedures.
  8. I lived continuously in Isaan for 21 years. I'm now back for a visit after 5 years in UK. I'm looking now at splitting my time between the two. UK has a reputation for bad weather. However, it is nice to get back there and have a break from the intense heat of Isaan. Taking in Isaan "cool season" mixed with UK summer, I think will be a good balance.
  9. The point of ownership whilst in a common law relationship. Law firms have a lot to fo with it as they know the law
  10. They are having checks by Doctors. Those that have been trained not to view genitalia In the way you suggest. Nearly 40% of gynecologist in UK are male. Does it make a difference what clothing they wear? If you had an issue down below would you insist on a male Dr and ask for his sexual orientation to be revealed? Most people, I suspect, would not. A Dr is a Dr regardless of gender or gender identity.
  11. Most law firms state "generally speaking" with regards to your comments. Nothing is cast in stone.
  12. The remember the Crusades? 😅😅😅
  13. I wouldn't say "many". Some are obviously better off than others. Those with the foresight not to sell their rice as soon as it's ready but rather store it until the price goes up. Those that avoid too much alcohol and gambling. Those that have ambition for their kids and send them to better schools instead of the one at the end of the road. I doubt those that build mansions in rice fields have much empathy or feeling for the locals. My wife and I built a nice but simple house in the village. One that's inkeeping with surroundings and fits in well. From the outside, there's no indication of rich farang,or rich Thai for that matter, being owners. We live around family but they are fine. No horror stories of eating our food, borrowing my tools and not returning them, asking for money or anything like that. My wife politely set the boundaries. We do entertain and have food on the go occasionally but so do other family. I treat them as my family and they've accepted me into theirs. My wife and family refer to be by name and not "farang". Everything is just how it would be if I weren't a foreigner, from all sides. Just as it should be.
  14. Yes. Step outside your front door. Speak to people. Go shopping alone. Immersion is the best method for learning a foreign language. Just like we all learnt our mother tongue.
  15. You are missing the point. There us a big difference between discipline and beating. The same as there is a big difference between discipline and abuse.
  16. England women are ranked 1st. By the sounds of it, they'd be more than able to bring you down the few pegs needed. 😁😁
  17. Grammar schools aren't what they used to be. Most are only "Grammar" in name.
  18. I'm quite sure they do pay VAT. Everytime they go shopping.
  19. The payments for the King come from his own money. The Sovereign Grant is paid from the income of the Crown Estate. Each year there is at least £200m surplus. That goes straight into the treasury coffers
  20. People who work hard to send their kids to private school are not "wannabe toffs". They are simply good, caring parents who feel a private school will give their kids a better start.
  21. Incorrect. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), ratified in 1994, and the International Convention on Maritime Search and Rescue (SAR Convention), enacted in 1985, jointly state first of all that people at sea legally have to be intercepted if they are found to be "in danger of being lost." If these people are picked up by British vessels they must be taken to Britain. If they have already reached British shores, they cannot be sent back into the channel. All the above regardless of EU membership or not.
  22. That's unfortunate for you. I guess some can do it but some can't.
