Therefore UK passport holders you are exposed when working in thailand your employer can screw you at any point by cancelling your PASSPORT. Becareful on who you work for as its perfectly legal for them to call Her majestys passport office and cancel your passport acting like you. Thank you England.

Please fellow Brits this is not a scam its reality and it can happen to you watch your backs as the guy who screwed me was a Brit.
