OT. The futures Bright, the Futures Brexit!!!

[swaledale]

You have just
a. shown what a vile piece of **** you are judgment wise
b. have no idea on a what a country offers
c. make presumptions on what a visit is all about
d. tag/label individuals as to their intentions.

you are in fact a complete joke in your opinions and continue to embarrass yourself,

This is fine by me, because I think you are a complete **** and I piss myself laughing.

That's your cue to get angry and start typing abuse.

and ....................................go

Ooh touched a nerve there haven't I? If the cap fits and it clearly does!

I see your interpretation skills poor as well, like a number of posters, exactly where did I denigrate the country or its people? Its just a shame they have to put up with your sort visiting!

You should read your own posts, its completely clear as to what type of person you are, you label yourself with your fascist rants!

Calm down dear you will have coronary at this rate.

[Trickytreesreds]

I guess I over estimated the thinking power of these guys, oh my the entertainment tonight is endless.

Yes I knew what he meant. He is being racist by labeling a whole race of people as prostitution based,

Complete ****

[ramAnag]

You never gave a reply to any part of that Ramanag.
1.has the pound been lower?
2.is tourism a major European income?
3.is Schengen an EU weakness for terror?
4.is the UK a major voice, that the EU has tried to steal?

God you're tiresome.
1) Of course it has, but not recently and it has never recovered since June 24th last year.
2) Obviously...and your point is?
3) Unintelligible wording of question.
4) Yes, we're a major voice...that has been made much weaker by Brexit and the behaviour of many of our Govt. ministers. No the EU hasn't tried to 'steal it'.

No thats what you thought and i wonder why that should spring to your mind? Again I know its beyond your ability to comprehend but try to read what I actually post, because nowhere did I say anything derogatory about Thailand or its people - it is however a fact that mass tourism (especially of the package holiday type where people don't give a **** about where they are as long as there is and seas, sun and cheap booze)) has had negative effects upon the culture and of course there are the less savoury aspects where Westerners have exploited the locals.

Now which category you belong to? on balance the ignorant xenophobic holiday maker who is exploiting the needs of the locals to make a living but does not give a toss about the effect on them - and your delight at saying how "cheap" it is demonstrates this.

Mind you I'm being generous of spirit in assuming that, still as your posts show you have a unique understanding of foreign culture and simply see the exploited underpaid labour as giving you the cheap holiday in the sun you feel you deserve!

You really are a piece of work Swale.

I am travelling to Kamphang Phet

With a two edged sword.
My company that I work for, is interested in setting up a plant in Thailand. The girl I deal with in the Thai government, suggested a holiday with them in their area.
We are able to produce a modular building material that they can produce themselves at low cost.
She has very graciously offered me a stay in Thailand and to talk business. I was honored and will willingly go.
You though, being the snide you are. Jumped in feet first and insinuated the sleaze side of Thailand and attached it to me.
Complete nob that that you are.

Hang on Tricky...you started this by arguing that we didn't have to worry about more expensive holidays because yours in Thailand will still be 'mega cheap'. Well of course it will be if it's all bought and paid for as a business perk!
I thought you worked as a prison officer anyway...or are you building 'modular' prisons?

1. the pound has risen and fallen and will continue to do so. As Darth Vader said, I find your lack of faith disturbing,
2.Tourism is ***** to many EU countries. Our bucks have meaning. Would you really want to piss off your main customer?
3.Schengen is an EU weakness. The terror cells that roam at will have shown that. If the EU wants to get picky with us over travel, because we aren't in it. Then folks will go else where(see above). Schengen, has meant that border manning has been slashed, hence the problem being experienced by British travelers.
4. The EU has.It has been said in the European parliament, that both the UK and France shouldn't have a voice, as they don't speak for Europe.
Hence we go all the way back to "Superstate"

Again, can someone please tell me, how free trade in 1975 became a political union?

no Einstein, I am an EX workshop manager in the prison service.

My actual skill is Engineering. At the moment I am working as the Engineering manager for a modular building company.
It is my job to install and instruct companies in how to replicate our product.
Yes I will be going to talk about how to do this. But I have (out of my pocket) turned it into an extended holiday.

Fair enough...you bang on about the prison service enough to have left that impression...but your argument about Thailand being so 'mega cheap' doesn't really bare scrutiny does it? It's 'mega cheap' because you're only going to have to part fund it...lol.
Anyway, moving on...if you're going to start quoting Darth Vader and assume that, because I obviously agreed about tourism being very important to many Mediterranean countries that I also agree with the idea of 'Brits' being the 'main customer', then I suspect we're on quite dodgy ground.

Frankly Anag I wouldn't believe a word Tricky says at a guess I'd say he was a menial warder in HM prison service, doubt he has either the wit or the skill t do what he says he is. lets face it nothing he posts has anything but a grain of truth, why would that change when he describes his job and isn't it funny that he siad he was off to Thailand as a holiday cos its cheap and the europeans can keep their resorts, then spins it into a pseudo job?

The guys a lying tosser we all know that.

TRYING to get back on the right track with this thread, TTR is both right and wrong (or rather he has generalised). and I'll use my current domicile, Mallorca, to explain, then move on to Greece. I'm currently in a resort that would be a ghost town if it wasn't for Brits, my next door neighbour manages two huge hotels here and is on the tourism board, and yearly he begs the island govt to keep the Brits coming because, his words (sort of!) the Germans and Scandinavians wouldn't put up with the standard of most establishments in the resort so no Brits equals no resort. MEANWHILE Five miles down the road the next door resort is indifferent because it is nearly 100% German speakers. So overall the impact would be there, but would be localised. Ironically the biggest impact after Spaniards would be Brits, who staff many front of houses, and Indians/Sri Lankans who cover many back of houses. As far as I can see this dominance of one nationality (or group of) per resort occurs a lot at least on this island so there IS some substance in what TTR says. That's all conjecture about what COULD happen but I'm happy to share the Greece story if I haven't bored you

[ramAnag]

I'm sure you're right Andy and I have never disputed that the countries and areas of Southern Europe are hugely dependent on tourism.
Not just British tourism though, as seems central to whatever point Tricky is trying to make, but all the sun starved countries of Northern Europe and a fair few Russians too for that matter.
He's also made out that all is well with the post Brexit world because holidaying in Thailand remains affordable, only then...a few posts later... it turns out that his 'mega cheap' holiday is actually, at least partly, a 'business' trip so of course it's bloody cheap!
I'm tired of these half truths from those who seek to justify Brexit. 'Has the pound ever been lower?' he asks in some sort of half arsed justification of the fact that the pound plummeted following Brexit and has struggled ever since. Of course, historically, there have been times when the pound has been lower but that is entirely irrelevant to what has happened since June 2016 which, although it may have benefited some exporters, has directly led to more expensive imports - including crucially food - holidays etc and a generally lower standard of living for the majority.
Face up to it Andy, we're in a mess. Our government hasn't a clue...bitching, completely counterproductive elections and pointless cabinet reshuffles have become the order of the day. Farage, Johnson, Gove and company lied to exploit the nationalistic tendencies of a proportion of the population...they've been rumbled and, just like Tricky...their lies and half truths are, hopefully, about to find them out.

Dont forget that under 40% of the people voted to leave rA.....

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I like a challenge. Want a wager for charity? Lets say cancer research?
I can muster up 20k.

Up for it gobby?

PS, your insult of prison officers is quite frankly offensive you snobby ****.
They have a tough job to do, so nonces like you can go about their daily lives,
You really are a pond life snob

Embarrassing

The whiff of bull**** follows you around everywhere you post! Do you really think the succession of falsehoods you have posted about yourself is believed on here? The trouble is a you weave your bull**** and falsehoods,, you forget what you have posted and trip yourself up.

Then of course you try to assume the air of someone who has some knowledge, which falls apart, when you state rubbish like NATO was formed to keep the peace in europe rather than to counter the soviet threat! (i'm sill pissing myself laughing over that)

Oh dear me and now the typical neanderthal response, a wager, which you know perfectly well will never come to pass. I mean of course I'd enter into a bet with an obvious fraud, I mean why wouldn't I?

Your right you are embarassing, but immensely funny except foe the racism and xenophobia.

Ye ah your right on second thoughts the job of a prison officer would be too much for you, I'm guessing you were the cleaner!
