It's possible to work illegally even if one is in possession of an NI number.

Keir Starmer's Digital ID Plans Stir Debate Across UK
Are you suggesting of all the migrants currently living in UK, including those with British citizenship, settlement visa, FLR or ILR, don't pay any tax?

UK digital ID cards - how would it affect expats in Thailand?
Something expats know about prior to moving to Thailand. It's a choice. I agree, it's unfair, but there is a choice.

Sometimes they drive me crazy.
It's not a Thai thing, if that's the point of your post. B&Q in UK are exactly the same.

London Protests: Rival Anti-Migrant Demos Draw Thousands
It's quite clear middle ground is needed. Unite the Kingdom are far right. The organizer they turned up for is far right. The pro migration group are far left. What is needed is a stance against illegal immigration. Against the cost to UK to house asylum seekers. The government need to educate people about the differences between legal and illegal immigration. Legal migration costs the tax payer nothing. In fact, it is a cash cow for the government. A visa is north of £1000 for 2.5 years. The IHS supplement, going to NHS, is now north of £1000 a year. ILR is over £3000. Not fogetting the £150 for a 5 minute English test for every application and the £50 a go for Life in UK test that most UK citizens would struggle to pass. Those on visas cannot claim benefits. They don't get housed. To ban legal immigration would do far more harm than good to UK. It's a shame, having heard some comment from those on the marches, many many people don't understand this.

Not Surprising.
Just the same as the Rwanda scheme. Just the same as using Bibby Stockholm as accommodation. It will be just the same if they try to home asylum seekers at army barracks. If Reform ever win an election, all of their accommodation plans and deportation schemes will also meet with the same opposition regarding human rights, appeals, etc.

One of the largest demonstrations in modern times - UNITE UK
Your figures are incorrect. Even Tommy Robinson thanked the "150000 prople" who turned up.

Visa Agent Required
To foreigners? I get the same as everyone else from Kasikorn.

Banksy Mural Erased from Royal Courts of Justice Wall
I guess you don't understand the laws around listings.

It was painted on a listed building. I has to go.

Energy Drinks Outlawed for Under-16s in England
If a third of under 16s drink them, someone over 16 is buying them. I doubt bringing this new policy in will change that.

UK Plans to Move Asylum Seekers from Hotels to Barracks
Why are they planning new accommodation? I thought they were smashing the gangs. 😅😅

You miss the point. Areas where there are Labour MPs are getting what the were promised. Those that didn't vote Labour are not. Little Kier is playing ball with his play ground buddies.

Not forgetting Labour cancelled the £350m rebuild of the hospital in the town of your username. Why was that? Oh yes. Torbay voted for change, but tactically, and elected a LibDem MP. Labour didn't like that. Plymouth, Labour MPs, got their funds in full and huge hospital rebuild is underway. It's just so children in playground. It's Labour's ball and they are going home.

An observation on farang Thai marriages.
Spoken like a true bank manager. 🤣🤣🤣 Joking aside, I agree with your philosophies. The outcome, with regards to your partner's relationship with money, is very much the same as my wife's. I look forward to my wife providing me free bed and board in my retirement. 😁😁

I think helping with expenditure for a partner who is working is different to what the OP was on about. Until our business was making good profits, maybe 2 years, I too helped out with the outgoings.

An observation on farang Thai marriages.
My wife and I have been together for 25 years. Married for 19. We have a 23 year old daughter. I have never given my wife an allowance. To me it feels like giving an employee a salary. She had a job when we met, working in a photo copy booth. She wanted to keep her job. We then set up a small business together which grew in to a big business, thanks mainly to her hard work. At this point she did receive a salary but it was via the business and based on profit. She tends to save a lot of her money. She's never been into fashion, gold or buying stuff just for appearance. I can't fault her work ethics, awareness of value of money or her outlook and awareness of preparing for the future. I put that down to not having "salaried" her when we first got together.

Your fear is justified. Can you think of anyone in the current ruling party in Parliament that could do a better job? Until very recently, Angela Rayner was the favourite to take over if needed.😬😬

Keir Starmer has been a total failure as Prime Minister
Polar opposites. Trump stands up to people. Trump gets things done, whether you agree with his policies or not. Starmer folds under pressure and generally gets nothing done.

If you are talking about a leadership challenge, be careful what you wish for. Starmer just could be the best of the bunch.

Down and out in England.
Move along to Hove? You don't know the area that well, do you? You'll pay more in Hove than Brighton now. He'll need to move further out to Portslade or Southwick, although not so nice, much cheaper.

Yes, i saw that. They calculated her stamp duty "based on information from her".
