100 pages and not one person admitting they are right or wrong on anything. But that's fine because we (Remainers) are right and they are wrong. ????

If you hadn't already noticed the website is back up. Search by your license number to find out what you owe: https://mflowthai.com/mflow/unuserpayment

Don't know about the Haval, but in the Volvo it is not very gentle - it's why I hated it at first. You have to feather the throttle to come to a gentle stop, otherwise it is quite forceful, so I think the brake lights come on most of the time.

I registered my car on MFlow but my wife said she didn't need it on hers.......then ended up driving hers through MFlow as she forgot. We had two fines but they were easy to pay online. But you are right, the website doesn't seem to be working at the moment. (Now both cars are registered) I know it doesn't help you now but after you make your submission you are not supposed to use Mflow until you get an email and / or text saying your application was successful. In my case it took 3-4 hours I think.

Yeah, I spent a few days with an electric Volvo XC40. I got to really like the one pedal driving (after initially disliking it) but that was my concern too - how do I know if the brake lights are coming on? In traffic I was trying to look for reflections in the car behind. I had to Google to make they were coming on and found this from Volvo: The brake lights are activated if the braking force exceeds a certain level. Not very descriptive or helpful. I think your idea of icon in the driver display is a really good idea!

I sometimes get very tired of this forum and the negative bitter nonsense. But then reading posts like yours it restores faith and shows a great side, of knowledgable people taking the time to share their experience and knowledge to help others. Although I don't own a Mini (never have, never will) I enjoyed reading, thanks.

Amazing, what an effort to make for the coronation! Compared to modern days when someone couldn't be bothered flying a couple of hours to attend her funeral!

Both were on Pattanakarn but in different places. Around 10.30pm and 11pm.

And here we go again. Cue all the usual posters popping up with, "The TAT must have paid for this", "I don't believe it", "Lies", "Never heard of that website", "Bangkok is third world" etc etc etc yawn yawn.

Yep. Twice in the last two months I have been through very professional blocks in Bangkok. No escape. Every single driver in every lane breathylised, and permanent cameras set up capturing everything - capturing the tests, and also set up at the desk for processing people caught. No idea what the punishments are / were. I have been here a long time but seems they are finally getting serious about this. Long may it continue.

Yep, they know the identity very well indeed as often they were friends or relatives. The PPE scandal will come out in time as one of the biggest corruption / fraud scandals in UK history. How things would have been under an EU open tender initiative.....

Was just in a Macro in Bangkok, they have L&P. Much cheaper than Villa too.

Erm.... "It was E.U rules that was the reason for UK (blue) passports being made in Poland" - Mac Mickmanus

Yeah, but blue passports!!! (made in Poland)

So where did you end up?

Right, because it is usual for foreigners to borrow from Thai loan sharks, then when they fall behind the loan sharks kill them, put life jackets on, tow them out to a tourist island and dump them in the sea. That's the tell-tale modus operandi of the loan shark. Got to love the super sleuths who hang out in this forum.

What?

And he actually dropped his principals when it was clear there would be a leadership election and a Brexit view was more electable,. so that was around late 2016 / early 2017. Great man. A man of integrity. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/feb/21/boris-johnson-joins-campaign-to-leave-eu

Ok, so he dropped his principals like a brick a bit earlier. That's your best comeback?

I have, several times, and you come back with deflections and anecdotes about your supermarket. But since you asked: 1. Has poverty increased since Brexit? 2. Has food bank dependency increased 14% since pre-Covid (and pre-Ukraine war - the other get out) or not? 3. Have UK exports decreased since Brexit? How many exporters have gone out of business? 4. Has the removal of freedom of movement negatively impacted our children and younger generations? 5. Has there been one single positive of Brexit? Please name it and explain it. In real terms. Not just "in the future it will be better" as this is nothing more than promising fabled "sunlit uplands". Give a concrete example of how we are better off. Not "removing EU tyranny", not "freeing ourselves of the shackles of faceless bureaucrats"; give a real, factual benefit of how anything has improved without using rhetoric. 6. Did the leave campaign lie and mislead the public? We can start with the bus in your earlier picture. Don't want to flood you with questions so we can start with those. I look forward to your promised responses.

Political gain. Nothing more, nothing less. Just like BJ who was an ardent supporter of the EU until he had a shot at leadership when he dropped his principals like a brick. And let's not forget Patel played the immigrant card but supports racist policies that would have prevented her parents from emigrating to the UK had they been in force at that time. (In hindsight that might not have been a bad thing).

It is Christmas Eve, of course they are busy. The article even mentions people picking up last minute items. I said it before, not EVERYONE in the UK is poor, there are plenty of people who can afford Christmas. But there are thousands / millions more that can't. How you continually gloss over this is amazing. Well, it's not, as your pattern is constant deflection. You see people in a supermarket = no poverty in the UK. You see houses with no lights and you assume people are sitting in the dark to conserve energy. RayC and others give eloquent responses and links, you just deflect, give worthless anecdotes and don't respond to any direct questions. I am sticking with Stewart Lee for Brexit, he has it spot on. (Google "Stewart Lee Brexit" to see it). In all these pages you have done nothing to convince me otherwise.

Oh my God, this is the worst straw clutch you have had so far. It's like "I can't be racist, I have a black friend". Priti Patel is an awful, poisonous woman. Just because she is of Indian heritage she should be excused?

Jeez, all I read from the Brexiteers in this thread is ridiculous cliches. You have just regurgitated one of the most hackneyed ones of all - EU tyranny! What, exactly, was tyrannical about the EU? I know Brexiteers don't like direct questions and prefer to throw out more cliches, but please try to answer this one. Name one thing the EU did that was tyrannical. Name a single EU rule that affected you in tyrannical way and tell me how it was imposed on you bearing in mind we were a major part of drafting said laws. Which one was imposed against our will (we had the power of veto) and how did it affect you? Can't wait to hear. Please don't reply with "faceless EU bureaucrats", try to give a solid answer to a simple question.

There used to be a nice bar up there. I used to tell arriving family members to meet me there rather than wait around downstairs. It closed years ago though and was never replaced. Shame.
