You don't think thats just your confirmation bias fuelled by social media ??... The only news outlets in Thailand in the 70’s and 80’s was the Bangkok post.. chances any expat at that time had no idea what was going on outside of their bubble... But don’t let that get in the way of Brit-bashing !!.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What constitutes a ‘true Brit’ in your eyes ??? nth generation, suit, bowler hat, umbrella.... or rolled up trousers and shirt sleeves with a knotted hanky on the head when on holiday ????? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately the vast majority of foreigners here are perfectly normal, behaving in a respectful manner etc... But that doesn’t generate clicks... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek B Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 I thought the reporting of a suspects Nationality was not good form to be quoted in the media anymore at least until convicted. In this particular case and in law the suspects Nationality has zero relevance until convicted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about one that is just, transparent and judges based purely on the merits of the case rather than the defendants gender, race or religion? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many Thai's travel to the UK or Europe or the US, get into an argument and then set fire to their hotel room? Zero. Absolutely none. Yet Brits and others come here and cause so many problems, every day. Find him and lock him up for a very long time. Possibly because Thais who can afford to travel to the UK or Europe are wealthy and unlikely to engage in activities unbecoming of people of that class. Whereas all sorts of foreign scum can afford to visit Thailand, Cambodia etc, including folk like this guy whose first reaction to a spot of friction is to do the unthinkable, including harming persons or objects. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nigerians dominated foreign prison numbers then. The Brits were second, but largely because of the Hong Kong Chinese on foreign passports whose criminal activities reflected badly on the mother country issuing passports. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be said - the % of UK travellers who act like double dose Downey retards is noticeably disproportionate to other nationalities' mental midget demographics. You haven't read any German-language forums then. Or Swedish. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all sure about that Bob, I was a proper hoon in the early 80's. Even got myself banged up in Pattaya in '84.
