You've cut and pasted from Wikipedia and confirmed what I said. Well done.

Yes.

He does pay tax. Tax payers do not pay him. The Crown Estate gives more than it takes. That's what it has to do with taxes. Your political leanings are blinding you from the truth.

But it's employment based. It's being paid for. The figures show ethnic origin. Not nationality. Many will be British citizens.

I believe the conversation is regarding immigration/visa/extension rules.

I don't and I'm not hijacking the thread. I'm having conversations with others who engage. Andrew was never "nearly king". Prior to William being born, had the queen died and Charles (never would have done) ummed and arred about being King and for a time erred on the side of NO, it could be said Andrew nearly became king. However, as we know, neither of those happened. Hence, Andrew was never even close to being King.

Do it yourself then.

No need for sarky remarks or pedantry. You agree with me. Great. Time to move on.

555. Funny. No link. No story. You made it up.

Show a link please.

Isn't it obvious? Here's a couple; immigration cannot arrest you or charge you for speeding, assult, murder........ Police cannot deport you, issue a fine for overstay or not doing a 90 day report. The government departments also differ.

Incorrect.

There are other options to show.

Different departments. Different bosses

Good job. You can't renew a visa at immigration. You saved yourself a trip.

Doubt?

For something that only needs doing, for most long term resident expats, once a year it's hardly a chore spending a couple of hours on immigration business. Spend the 20000 agent fee on something nice.

If a foreign worker, on a visa, loses their job or the contract ends, they have 30 days to get a new job, and visa, or leave. Seems your idea is already in place.

That old chestnut. The Crown Estate are net contributors to the UK economy. Those hard working people you speak of do not fund the royal family.

Two significant events. Unlikely and not nearly King. He was never even first inline.

Do you have a link to that rule? I would suggest a single ticket and an expired foreign passport, travelling back to the country of passport, is fine.

It doesn't sound real. Full stop.

I haven't.

No. I'm not. I'm commenting on an open forum.

No, I didn't. I have. I have. I have never judged anything.
