UK Passport Payment Annoyance
josephbloggs replied to josephbloggs's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
Ah, no I hadn't read that. -
Last year I left my job after many years of having non B extensions based on employment (29 years of them!). I moved money here but it hadn't been with me for two months. I just flew to Laos, got a single entry 90 day non-O, then did a 12 month extension in Bangkok by which time my funds were seasoned. I know things have changed and Laos probably isn't the best option now they don't allow in-person applications, but maybe a route to consider if there's somewhere you can visit for a few days to apply for a non-O. The funds don't need to be seasoned for that initial application, only for the extension.

Massive Blackout Cripples Spain and Portugal's Daily Life

Ha ha, fair enough. -
Brilliant, that says it all! Nick has decided without watching it!! No need for further discussion on this topic - you are blinkered, closed minded, and are not willing to look at the other side. Case closed. Bravo Nick, Bravo! Even if it was available legally to watch and they had a free screening in your garden you know you still wouldn't watch it.

Hi folks, So I was at VFS last week to submit an application to renew my daughter's UK passport. I had to do it twice as the first time they rejected it as proof of address was in my name and it needed to be her name even though she is 16 and doesn't have bills in her name. Anyway, got that sorted. Filled out the credit card paper form (super high tech, well done UK!) for the full amount, VFS checked it and we sealed it together and signed it. Now I just got this email. I had written the correct amount as I double checked and VFS checked everything. My credit card says £143.51 is pending. No idea why they say only £14.51 is paid as my credit card says £143.51. I will call them tomorrow - AT MY EXPENSE - but has anyone had a similar issue? So frustrating and pretty rubbish really.

By how long? And surely an "MSM conspiracy" is an MSM conspiracy, no? Or it's only a conspiracy for a couple of hours until it gets published. Surely an MSM conspiracy would mean it gets buried by the woke, loony left, agenda wielding press? Well, it didn't get buried did it. Ergo the conspiracy is all in the posters mind, just like every other bit of anti MSM propaganda you read. -

Yawn. You guys are so predictable. And "woke" is soooooo boring now. Are these not "MSM"? Surely the Guardian is lefty lefty wokey wokey, no? Just try to think for yourself instead of parroting childish terms automatically without even looking for yourself. -

Transport Driving Licence Renewals Go Digital: No More Tests Needed

Yes. -
Ok, explains a lot. I think I saw you in the video - do you have lots of guns and a mullet? I definitely saw you.

"Were" welcome? So now you admit they are no longer welcome on their own land? I am wondering where you get your news from. You seem to categorise the whole people as violent Jew attackers. They are families, olive pickers, people who want a simple life. The IDF are not violent? You need to open your mind, you really do. I pity you with your blind hatred, it is not healthy.

Other people have posted alternative links.

And should the Palestinians not also have the right to live on their land that they have occupied for centuries? Or should Israel be allowed to displace them for no other reason than what their religious history tells them? That is the question. Why is the will of Israel more important? Why can they occupy and harass and demean with aggression? You dehumanise them with words and names but they are family people trying to get by, trying to pick olives off their own trees on their own land in their own Israeli approved zone, trying to earn a living, trying to navigate their streets though checkpoints that are arbitrarily closed so people can't walk home. Please watch the film, I am genuinely keen to know if it is one sided or not.
-
Yeah, that was tragic. Their land, their trees, not harming anyone, not armed, not aggressive, just picking olives.. And completely illegal under the international law that Israel is a signatory to. Only legal under Israels' Occupying laws. I really wish some of the Israel defenders would watch this as I would be keen to know if they think it is justified or not.
-
Ok, I see. Didn't stop you defending them before though.
-
Ok, so using semantics you say Israel is not illegally occupying land. Right? They are not building "outposts" on occupied land which then get approved by the government and turned in to "approved" settlements under Israeli law (but not under international law). That isn't happening, because of.......words.

At what? Something important? Please do tell me. -
Why am I entertaining this.... What is progressive about the extermination of Jews and attempting to conquer Europe and killing millions of innocent people? Sigh.
-
Clutching at straws. “The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies.” Israel hasn't done that? They are doing it as we speak. Please watch the documentary as you may learn something instead of justifying barbarity by semantics.
