TLDR : Answer Summary

The UK does not reciprocate the 30-day visa-free entry that UK citizens have when visiting Thailand. Thai citizens are required to apply for a visa to enter the UK, as there is no visa waiver agreement in place, which means the process can be quite challenging for them.

Absolutely not. For a Thai to get a visa to go to the UK is a mountain climb. It can be done but only by the most determined.

No, that's why UK citizens get Visa exempt and not visa waiver. Visa waiver is a bilateral agreement.
