please don’t ever sell me a car you have driven 🤣

Phuket taxi drivers are horrific, and are one of the worst aspects of visiting Phuket. Put meters in them all, with card and/or QR code payments and remove them all from the streets of Patong - and the problem will be solved. they can wait at a central holding pen (behind jungceylon) and can come to designated ranks when a customer wants one. and take half of them off the road employing the drivers in a proper minibus service such as the one in Hong Kong ….. Safe, fair and cheaper transport for all.

not sure that’s the reason as I never saw it before Covid. That may be a good reasons for westerners to wear one, but for Thais?

If you watch the video it explains why they never made an insurance claim, but in essence because they were a new business, it would have cost them more in increased premiums than to make a claim, so no claim was ever made.

Sadly you are completely correct, I have been in Shoreditch for a while working and the east end is pretty much as you described. the people commenting that this is not true are incorrect. It is absolutely true - I see it with my own eyes every day. This is the result of Tony Blair’s “integrated society” and opening of the borders, and successive governments doing nothing about it as they don’t want to be branded “racist” as people are doing here to the OP. If people don’t understand that this is not “racist”, it is the truth. Many of the immigrant communities, such as Pakistan and Bangladesh, have a different style of living. It’s not “racist” to realise this. The UK as I remember it from ghe 90s is gone.

I doubt anything will happen to the taxi drivers as they seem immune to any prosecution. The taxi “club” will probably bung a few baht to the family and their behaviour will continue as ever. Sadly it’s still very much a third world mentality.

UK is about to introduce a 25% tariff for US visitors based on their body weight. £25 for every 100lb of weight. It’s going to fill the £22 billion black hole in the chancellors budget in a matter of weeks.

The article says 4.3 M for the new IM6 SUV, not a pickup, however press releases say IM6 will be 1.2 to 1.8M so it’s just a typo.

Xenophobia - clearly all foreigners are akin to the devil ! 🤣

Absolutely ! I just wonder what would happen if they tried this in the UK, asking the UK public to grass up anyone they suspected of being there illegally. The Border Force guys would have to round up millions !!

absolutely agree with you. The only thing I can’t figure out is why on earth they are doing this.

Articles like this always make me feel so welcome

See plenty of stories of monks and priests abusing children - nothing “unbelievable” here, just something utterly disgusting.

Should either be left to rot in jail or deported. UK has gone mad.

I think it’s supposed to read “as the end of the high….”
