Farage’s Political Earthquake Begins to Rattle Britain’s Foundations
No you’re not. You have a British passport which made setting up a new life in Thailand very easy. If you need to head back you can walk straight into the country without proving anything to anyone. If you need any government assistance you automatically get it (with some means testing of course) and you don’t face stigma, racism, Islamophobia or anything derogatory. All this “woe is me” is self inflicted. All this idea that someone less fortunate than yourself somehow gets better treatment is just right wing propaganda. You’re white, you’re British. Count your blessings and stop moaning about others who are just trying to get by. -

What is it about Trump that triggers you and causes you so much angst and unease
I'm not saying you're wrong. You're not. But I've got to admit, I could attribute those attributes to virtually every POTUS over the last 30 years. The proportions of those attributes may be a little different - more in some cases, less in other - and yet still, most US Presidents exhibit those same traits. Those traits are not unique to Trump at all. -

LTR visa tax exemption on foreign income: don't count on it!
Sometimes the real story can be difficult to find out. I suspect your being on the LTR took them by surprise and that there was major 'face saving' on their part going on (refusing to admit a mistake). They did not not want to admit that your original assertation (that your remitted foreign revenues remitted to Thailand don't matter if on LTR_WP) was correct. Possibly they even made more mistakes to cover up their original mistake. For the western mindset (like mine) this means one has to be very careful - even if one is correct. Especially when dealing with Government officials, one needs to try to thread the needle (or 'stickhandle' as we say in Canada), to have the correct legal approach adopted, and to try and ensure the Government official does not lose face. I concede that can be difficult at times, especially if the government official gets too stubborn in regards to a mistake they may have made. Sometimes smiles all around (despite wrong info from the Government) with a polite request to double check with other officials (or sources) can be the way to proceed, but that too is fraught with risk, possibly causing an even more loss of face. As the saying goes "This Is Thailand".
