Incorrect. I guess you have not been following the protest marches in London. I repeat, if a Muslim was walking around areas of Golders Green, he/she would be in danger.

You are doing the same by only acknowledging one side. There is as much criticism of Israel in the media as there is of Hamas. There are two sides to every conflict, won't call it a war for fear of upsetting one particular poster, they are both to blame.

It works both ways. Those that think the issues are only one way are the route cause of the problem.

Low income tax? Incorrect. Teachers don't have a preferential tax rate Free health care and pension? I agree. They are attractive perks.

Incorrect. Teacher loan payments are taken at source. Long term loans can also be borrowed using the lump sum payment teachers receive at retirement as collateral.

No nonsense. If a Muslim walked in to the Golders Green area, especially with the Gaza crisis going on, there would be issues. Likewise if orthodox Jews walked into Tower Hamlets, there would be issues. There are generally no reactions towards expats from Thais as there are no wars, religious beliefs or history to create tension. Your comparison is nonsense.

Funny. Did Littlenok kick you out?

More drivel after having read half the comment quoted I thought the villagers in your village couldn't afford to buy meat?

Says the man who lives 2 hours drive from Makro. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Once again, you appear to be letting your assumed superiority cloud your judgement of other posters and their comments. I've not asked you to prove anything. You posted what you felt Isaan's places of interest amounted to. I pointed out you'd missed quite a few. As one of the more traveled persons, your words, you do appear to have missed a lot. 22 years I've been in Thsiland and I'm still visiting places I didn't know were there. Some I've found on the internet, others by word of mouth. Some people are happy to be interested in and learn by others knowledge. Some, it seems, are not.

Not a pissing contest. I was just enlightening you on the many places you seem to have driven passed.

It seems I for one, 22 years in NE, could tell you much. You say you like history and point out 2 Khmer ruins. Unrestored. Yet you miss the myriad of other Khmer temples stretching from the far south of Isaan all the way north to Sakon Nakhon. You like history yet you neglect to mention the archeological sites of mid Isaan around Kalasin and Khon Kaen. You say you like to relax yet miss out the plethora of lakes and the facilities that have been built on and around them. Many housing some of the best restaurants to be found. Sounds like you need to get out of the car sometimes, during your "exploring".

It depends. Have you never seen an orthodox Jew?

You clearly only explored your stoop. You missed the dinosaur museum, for starters.

Why blame me for something you wrote? Show me where I said UK was perfectly safe? That's what you wrote.

No. Not making it up. I've never said " UK is perfectly safe"

But they haven't. It's perfectly safe, according to you.

It depends where you live and where you go. In most towns and cities there are safe places and places you wouldn't want to go. What has ability to afford got to do with things? What is pad ka prow?

Isn't it correct that, generally speaking, certain posters prefer citable figures rather than personal experiences? Would that poster's most recent posts contradict that view?

I agree I mis quoted you. You said: "Because I have a handful of friends in the UK, all the perpetrators of terrorism in the UK have been identified and their identities published. Non of my small number of UK friends are amongst them." Uk friends, not English friends. None the less, you included location/nationality to wriggle. I will ask once again, please answer... How do you know none of your friends( location and nationality unspecified) have never committed an act of terrorism ( unidentified or identified)? That was, my original question prior to you making it a saga by dodging the question. Additionally, how do you know all perpetrators of terrorism in UK have been identified? You don't as you are incorrect.

The OP is,asking two questions. Neither can be answered with total accuracy until the location of his IO is known. What I can say from my experience of Buriram office... 1. I've never known a KR2 being needed for a 60 day extension. 2. Different stories for 1 year. Some say same day, some say 24 hrs old is OK.

That comment just proves you've been watching too much fiction.

You don't get the choice of using protection rackets. Well, actually you do. Pay or pain. That's an attack on the public. There are women who are not prostitutes until they are pimped. That's an attack on a member of the public.

I was quoting another posters comment. It is the right question in context to that.

Gangsters never engage with drug users? Never pimp prostitutes? Never run protection rackets? That's new to me.
