Fast changed to the value of one currency normally means that something is very wrong with that country. I guess this has been proven right. correct currencies do well when the big boys/traders think a country has a bright future,badly when they dont,now how is that £ doing these days?

Yes, the thing that is wrong with the UK is that the Politicians cannot decide what to do and there doesnt seem to be an end in sight to the current turmoil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickBradford Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 It speaks volumes about the chronic failure of the UK's political class that the most likely person to be the next Prime Minister is either Boris Johnson, Jeremy Corbyn, or Nigel Farage. When mainstream politics reneges on its duty, the door is opened to the wackos. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has more chance than farage, i will admit the lib dem surge has shocked me and many others but they will scrap brexit so maybe it wasnt such a shock,labour and the cons have no option but to scrap brexit or similar,fartage wont get anywhere near enough seats, a decent percentage of overall voters yes but its seats that matter.

malagateddy Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 So, which one exchange currency rate do you rely on? Or are you going to say that you are so darn rich, you don't have to rely on anything? Typical brexiteer.I am not rich let me assure you..but I have enough thai baht to cover my needs for a good few years.Anything else you wish to know..just write on a postcard and pop it in the post old boy.Sent from my SM-G7102 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G7102 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app would that be your old age pension as your aged 67,you may just be correct about the cost of living being cheaper but not by much and its barely cheaper than several EU nations, and food and drink are far inferior ,as for the thai health service it is indeed good but i would still rate it lower than the NHS and you are paying for it.

If so hat's off to him I applaud folk who have done well and prepared a nest egg for their old age like myself. I have more than enough for myself and my wife's needs and no kids. If I am to feel any pity it's for the impoverished Thai loving Brexiteers who are seeing their dream literally smashed up on 2 fronts. Thai visa requirements and a rapidly shrinking pound. They are now getting relentlessly screwed and still 'remain' the driving force behind Brexit and sadly think it will turn their life around. BTW Dominic Cummins the evil genius who made this all happen thinks that the working class are thick intellectually but should be pitied and helped nevertheless probably similar to 'best-selling' author Jacob Ress-Mogg. https://medium.com/@willblack_53220/forget-cumberbatch-see-what-brexit-manipulator-really-thinks-of-you-a9aa346bbc16 Cummings adds: “One can both listen to basic science on genetics and regard as a priority the improvement of state schools; accepting we are evolved creatures does not mean ‘giving up on the less fortunate’.” So, there you have it, less prosperous Brexit voters, the man who sold you Brexit says you are poor because you have inferior genes and brains, and better education won’t change that.

Having returned to live in the U.K , having lived in Thailand for many years. I’ve always been a big supporter of our NHS, taking great pride in our national treasure. However now, after observing how it actual provides a vital service to the population, I am beginning to appreise my opinion. This is not to say, I’m for a private health system, it’s just my opinion,and of senior medical professionals, who I have spoken to, that the NHS service is now jammed with too much red tape and Bureaucracy. While in Thailand the rich can and do receive good medical treatment, in their hotels/hospital, while for the general population, it’s down to a certain extent on luck, same as the U.K. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautifulthailand99 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I'll bet if Farage ever gets within a whiff of being PM we'll be well on a way to 30 baht to a pound. Remember when we though pre-Brexit 50 was a disaster? Though as one Brexit supporting Norwegian here remarked a lot of better off Europeans in Thailand are cheering on the UK's demise and believe it will shake out some of the impoverished Brit riff-raff from the Kingdom.
