Elon Musk: Trump as the ‘Only Way’ to Preserve U.S. Democracy, Says Billionaire
Admittedly, the US is no better off than the UK when it comes to absolutely appalling choices for leadership, but why anyone would question Harris in particular when she is standing against a convicted fraudster, rapist, long term friend of Epstein, and utterly incompetent fool is beyond me. I guess one sees what one wants to see. -

To be fair, this has been ongoing since long before the UK even knew there was an illegal immigrant issue. -

Prime Minister in Tears Over Tragic Bangkok School Bus Fire
I totally agree, the same as all the night club fires over the years caused by poor wiring installation. Many people died in these fires and a few weeks later all was forgotten. Most of the same night clubs were rebuilt and are probably no safer than the previous buildings were. -

Ukraine ... Enlighten yourself
Of course, Ukraine was a part of the USSR, hence Russia had Russian naval bases and nuclear weapons in Ukraine. Even before the USSR Russia defeated the Ottomans in the 18th century to take the Crimean, which has an amazing history btw. -

Israel and Hezbollah Exchange Blows in Pre-emptive Strikes and Retaliatory Attacks
I do think that Israel is waiting for the Iranians to do something blatantly so that the Israeli's can strike at the nuke facilities in Iran! Israel has wanted to do that for quite some time and can fully understand why. -

Ok...tell me then who are these 'high-level officer(s)' and how would the applicant know that was who authorized the extension? Can you provide a link to an official Immigration website showing that rule? -

Pros and cons of using an agent for the 800k
From Police order 327/2557. 4. In case where an applying alien does not meet the full qualification stipulated by the criteria herein, the alien must be notified of the non-permission order and must depart from the Kingdom within seven days from the date on which the permitted period has lapsed. 5. In the case where an alien applicant does not meet the full qualifications stipulated by the criteria herein or in other cases not specified in this Order but a competent officer equivalent to or higher than inspector is of the opinion that the alien has legitimate reason for staying in the Kingdom of Thailand, the application shall be forwarded to the Commander of the Royal Thai Police or an authorized competent officer for further consideration of the alien's application. How many agent applications where the applicant didn't meet the financial criteria do you know of where the application was forwarded for consideration by an authorized, competent official above the rank of Inspector. > Answer none > money talks. -

Frozen in time: British expats losing out on pensions in Thailand
Off-topic, but briefly to clarify.. "..registration, insurance, maintenance and petrol into account?" registration? insurance? Don't know about those things! I just drive to the shops.beach etc 🙂 For my medical insurance, I am somewhat healthy for my age, no statins etc, no high blood pressure etc, so my premium is low and has never risen since I have never claimed. $500 deductible on a claim and only my prostate bph/utis excluded (prostate cancer is fully covered). As for frugal living, I don't consider that I live a frugal life. My rented home was built just a few months ago, so all modern and well-built. I have hearty home-cooked meals every day, swim in the mountain river outside my door every day, go to the beach a few times a week, enjoy my ham radio hobby, teach as a volunteer at the local Burmese school blah blah blah. My stress levels are zilch, nada, non-existent 🙂 -

Patong - The Wake
In answer to this post, I don't insult other races, I just post as I see it and experience it, and if it is insulting to them, then so be it. I'm not sure how mentioning the fact that a Chinese guy was clipping his toenails on the small table in Starbucks is insulting to that race, it's just what it is – – a filthy habit and pure ignorance. There are other instances, all relating to the habits of certain races, including pure rudeness and disrespect to other people, but I won't go into them here. I will however share an incident which happened many years ago when I was on a bus in Malta, having taken a holiday there after working in Nigeria for a total of 17 months .......on the double seat in front of me were a couple of Nigerians who were being very rowdy and suddenly one turned round to me and asked where I was from, so I told him, and he asked me if I'd ever been to Nigeria, because it was a beautiful country. I speak as I find, so I said to him that I had lived and worked in Nigeria for some time and I considered it to be a "sh!thole!" of a country and I would never go back. He turned back to his friend and never bothered me again! -

Ukraine ... Enlighten yourself
Actually, in fairly recent history Russia has been the victim of invasions by Poland, Germany, and before that was invaded by many other nations. So it is very understandable that Russia seeks a buffer between itself and other nations. I understand the antipathy towards Russia, before I went to Russia I was the same, and even then, more happened to make you anti-Russian than pro Russian, however, Russians are decent people, and they do not wish for war with the West as it turned out.
