23·18 hours agoI don’t quite understand why you are dismissing this person’s concerns like this. The codes are available for a very short period so there is a chance that if there is a WiFi or other network outage they genuinely could not get to the code.
Because this isn’t the case. They’re pretending that they can only get a code when they land in the UK and there’s a very real risk that they will be without internet when they’ve reached the immigration desk. This is BS.
The code is valid for 30-90 days. You’re telling me that within 30-90 days of travelling to the UK you can’t generate a code and save it or write it down? Seriously?
Here’s some googling you might not have done (or OP for that matter).
https://www.gov.uk/check-immigration-status
https://www.york.ac.uk/students/support/international/immigration/immigration-status/
And it’s not like they are complicated codes that is difficult to write down. They look similar to this: S4WADTYWF.
I agree that it is hard to put faith in a system like this where your immigration status relies on the availability of a network
When faced with new facts would you change your mind? I didn’t think so.
Like the first time you compiled the Linux kernel without instructions.
Seems to me that they’re are easy solutions to your scenarios.
Ask to use their WiFi that isn’t overloaded. Get a working SIM before you travel (eSim perhaps?). Download the one time code and screenshot it. If it’s a code like the DVLA driver license check then it doesn’t matter how you’ve saved it. Only that the code is valid when they enter it. Write it down on a piece of paper if you have to.
Ultimately it’s on you to understand the requirements to travel to any country you visit and have the correct paperwork. And if you can’t do that… well 🤦♂️.
6·1 day agoAnother electoral defeat in five years (that’s assuming either of them last that long).
4·1 day agoSure, why not 🤷. Let’s go with that. Nice and simple.
If we assume that Ingerland is an acceptable spelling of England (and no other nation exists in the UK 😠) then how about Inglewood?
That way we’ll be immortalised by 2pac in the same song as Hollywood!
We need a tax system that takes not just the headlines into account but assess the relative benefits of various degrees of tax in various industries and individuals vs what they can or can’t contribute back in terms of other economic activity that benefits the economy as a whole.
Simply saying we need more tax (or less if you’re Liz Truss inclined) is a, frankly, GCSE level of understanding of the economy and should be discouraged.
If border control pulls me aside and demands my proof of residency, and I can’t access the internet, I may be stuck in a small room for hours or days,
How likely are you to not be able to access the internet at a UK border you might be traveling through? Seriously.
Also, have you heard of a download for offline usage?
Except don’t do this if your company tells you not to
Or if you’re Hillary Clinton 😜.
Ha! What the Swiss don’t realise is that we can simply tax everyone else more. Fools 😂.
6·2 days agoMa’am… MA’AM! Please listen to the inflight announcements. They’re for your safety! Look at it. LOOK!
6·3 days agoKilled four of them. Then was captured in the South Pacific. They took my shins. But I escaped. Hid under a pile of bodies for two weeks. When I got back they sewn my feet back to my knees so I could walk again.
What this doesn’t tell you is that he was shot six times not by Nazis… but by friendly fire 🤦♂️.
But we’ll just take the next 1% and make them pay 31% of the taxes. Problem solved! /s
4312·4 days agoI dunno, I use Bitwarden and Firefox on Android so pretty none mainstream and don’t have any of the issues this clown does. Seems like a click bait article for the sake of it.
What faction of the Labour party do you think are briefing against Starmer and Gray? It feels to me this is entirely self inflicted due to indiscipline.
Didn’t see this coming. Thanks for reporting it 😁
This needs to be her legacy and not just something we forget in five years. For the rest of her living life she needs to be reminded of this. And especially when she still refuses to understand her involvement in this.
Look at the media outlet. That should tell you all you need to know 😂
Netanyahu has the gaul to tell Biden to his face whilst sitting in the oval office, that he’s a Zionist. An Irish American Zionist. Of all the nationalities he could have called out for being a Zionist, Irish sure is a strange one.
Now the IDF opens fire on a UN peacekeeping force where Irish peacekeepers are stationed. Dude is going to put on a Gimp suit and tickle Joe’s asshole with his nose whilst wanking him off with rosery beads on live TV next, or something 🤣.
