Does the UK not sell UV lights, nor have anyone growing it indoors? Seriously, with this kind of enormous and steady smuggling of weed into the country, Britain and its pot heads must be the most under-cultivated cannibis nation on the planet.

Will be a male prison.

Most likely will get a nick name like, Daisy.

 

 

I believe she will be put in a female prison if  transitioned or transitioning. Most likely in protective custody.

Has he fully transitioned yet ?

 

just got this below off uk government website.

 

Question: Where are transgender prisoners currently placed?

The placement of transgender prisoners is subject to a thorough risk-assessment in every case. More than 90% of transgender women in prison are housed in men’s prisons, and most do not request a move to a women’s prison. There is no obligation to move transgender prisoners according to their wishes.

Transgender women without a Gender Recognition Certificate – i.e. who are not legally female – are initially sent to a male prison as a matter of course.

Sure you did.

That's why it's taken you 17 hours to comment.   Yawn.  :coffee1:

They probably see it, and send the information to customs of destination of the flight. That way they don't need to deal with it and get smugglers arrested at the other end.

Saw a lot of that on Airport Security series... "acting on a tip"

Correct, happens a lot. A couple of major busts were made in Thailand on info from the Aussie customs - pointless stopping them in Aus. as it only means a bit of a slap on the wrist, whereas in Thailand it means a long stay locked up - as it should be.

Thank you. Never thought Thailand would ever be referred to as a sensible, caring country.

 

Meantime I suggest you spew your bile over users of crystal meth, heroin, alcohol and cigarettes.Cannabis is  far less harmful, both in terms of addiction, and physical well -being.

Another aggressive reply from a so called."passive" pothead drug user, more proof of the carnage this drug is causing to Thailand...oh and Stalin was less of a genocidal murderer than Hitler...just putting your ridiculous comment into perspective

A British holidaymaker has become the latest individual ensnared in a rising trend of drug smuggling cases.

Umm, maybe the UK should Legalise it...

Just a comparison as the guy said about meth etc...we are not talking about meth but the destruction of Thailand by legalising pot for "medicinal purposes only". another dopehead with no clue of history  or anything outside of your little out spaced  world...go have another spliff dopehead dude😎

Only ever smoked a joint once in my life, in the UK, in my late teens. Pleasant, but nothing special. As far as my little spaced out world is concerned it is, indeed, little these days. I live quietly with my Thai wife. She is 70, I am 83. We were married in 1990 in Taiwan.  We travelled the world together on both business and pleasure, so it was not so little in those days.

 

BTW, from an old timer, best you calm down, and watch your language.

Smugglers prevented from bringing 27 tonnes of cannabis into the UK in 2024

 

In 2024, 430 suspects were arrested at Heathrow Airport where 14,617kg of cannabis was seized.

 

The next worst affected airports were Manchester Airport, where around 135 arrests were made and 4,815kg of cannabis seized, and Birmingham Airport, where 40 arrests were made and 1,410kg cannabis seized.

 

Of the suspects, 460 were arrested having arrived from Thailand; 108 arriving from Canada and 63 arriving from the USA. The remainder had flown in from a variety of other countries.

Might start playing one where she is going. Is pot illegal in the UK?

Man that is one ugly dude!  If he wants to pass as a woman he should say that he's Portuguese, more likely to be believed.  I worked in a place with a guy who was transitioning, he said his fantasy was to be a bride: trousseau, big ceremony, all that.  He was not at all good looking, and when he did his drag the best he could do was Janet Reno (this was in the 1980s).  Poor b_stard.

I'm sure he'd rather be in a mens' facility, he'd have a more fulfilling social life.

 

Thailand has gone to the dogs since legalization of whatever they are selling on the counter and under ! In all my years , I have never seen so much crime, fights, violence, deaths , drunks and drugged fools wandering  the streets. It is hurting Thailand and Thai people , families, who are falling into this trap, not only the stupid “ tourists” that should know better.

I say good luck to anyone trying to stop this craziness , but I certainly do not condone killing them. Just lock them all up, build prisons.
