I've explained so many times. Those in the UK on a working visa cannot claim benefits. Those on spouse/family visa also cannot, even if they are working. Foreigners working in Thailand can claim unemployment benefits, in line with rules for Thais. One does not need to be on a "work visa"(I assume you mean NonB) to work in Thailand.

Foreigners who order spicy dishes but modify them to be not spicy.

No gaslighting.. Just saying it as it is. Cancer treatment? Like I said, I have Thai social security. Others should have insurance. Only fools would live abroad without it. Crumbs? No. Just as in UK, my wife and I always buy as a joint venture. Once again, I'm not trying to prove anything. Certainly not trying to prove things that aren't true.

I've never paid more entrance fees anywhere. I have social security so don't know about hospital fees. Even before that I had Thai private health insurance. My tax was always at the same rate. I was on a Non B visa, sometimes on Non O. I used to go to the tax office myself to get the final statement. Buying land? No problem. I'm married so it's purchased under " Sin som rot" rules. I'm not pretending anything. Just pointing out your errors.

I did read what you wrote. Who are victims? Even now the " low lifes (no apostrophe)" you speak of need a fixed address and a job with a salary of £18600 for at least 6 months prior to application. They also need to maintain that salary for future applications. I'm confused how you define "low life" as you now say it has nothing to do with salary.

As I've previously mentioned, nobody appears to be complaining about restrictions. It's the rise in restrictions. There is no logical reason for the level of income required to more than double in one hit. Whether the changes will affect those already on visas in UK is yet unconfirmed. If it is confirmed, this too is illogical. My wife and I have been happily living in UK for 4 years over the old threshold but we'll below the new one. We've never claimed a penny from the government, my wife works hard, pays double bubble on NHS +NI, we managed to buy our own property outright, yet this is possibly not going to be good enough. It's not a point of we can't meet them , putting "you" in capitals was obtuse, because we can with a little change in routines. It's a point of the hike in requirements and fees is too much in one go with little notice. I wonder who would complain if the income levels for income support or tax credits or other benefits moved by so much. Those who are actually costing the government money as to those who are not and are actually contributing.
