So explain away how many of these illegal economic migrants come directly from there place of 'oppression' to the UK without passing through another country? Since airlines became financially responsible for any that arrived on flights, very very few, because almost none come originally from countries surrounding UK.

There are legal routes to apply to immigrate to UK, and for genuine asylum seekers to be placed by the UN but these economic migrants choose not to or are unable to qualify so ignore the law of the land even before they arrive.

Many don't even understand the USA they see in pictures is not the UK.

But you will want to believe facts are prejudice because they don't fit your narrative.

@Sam ********

QED you even don't know what a continent is. 😀😀😀😀

@Brett *********

strange how 'international law' only comes into play once they have made their way across all the safe countries in Europe?

@Andrew ******

Most Americans don't speak English as America is a continent not a country. Most United Statiens are too dim to understand that so go for the easy option. 😀

As long as you apply with all the correct bits uploaded before you leave your home country the Evisa is sent to you as a pdf by email, which you show (on your phone) to the IO on arrival.

@Neil ******

IME they seem to give you a link back to the evisa site, but good luck.

@John *********

yes, I've sent a few emails of questions to them but reply timescales and not addressing questions are frustrating at the least

@John *********

Thanks. Got both DBS, medical certs, waiting on a current bank statement as its ^ 3 months now, insurance through thai Co (is v high). Wife's capital is in a joint account (my capital seperate account) is that a problem?

Time is now pressing so it seems best both apply for 60 day tourist visas and go from there. I was thinking of simultaneously applying for the OA from the UK on the chance of it being granted even once I was there.

I tried to find a UK agent to guide and check unsuccessfully

@John *********

I found the webpage for Thai consulate in Wales had different info than the London embassy page, scant though that was. That's why I asked for England specific. Thanks anyway.

@Dawn *******
