IMO....the only deterrent is, that, if you know that when you land, you are going to be deported straightway, ie: off the boat and on to a plane, to be taken miles away to some predetermined country, example Rwanda, where your asylum request will be listened to, and if successful, you come in legally.
It was set up, but Starmers lot went against it, even though it eventually cleared the courts. Leave the ECHR to start with, to stop these money grabbing lawyers appealing this and that.

General Discussion Area / Small Pot Pensions....
« on: 10 July 2025, 20:03:26 »
I have some small pensions with Rothesay. Mainly residue left over from previous transfers. I have had a letter from them offering me one off lump sum payments. Anybody else had this offer from a pension company. 
I don't understand tax codes, but the biggest pension is £960 per year. This is paid £80 month, but they stop £36 pm tax. Giving me £44.
Obviously, they are stopping tax also from the amount my state pension is over the £12,570 tax allowance.
They have offered me £8,500 final lump sum payment. What I am concerned about is how they are going to tax it.
Any suggestions

I predict that 'One in, one out' will not make the slightest difference to the boats/migrants crossing the channel

Omega General Help / Re: Ashtray locking plate spring
« on: 01 June 2025, 18:45:41 »
Well, I fixed it !!!! Used a piece of model aircraft sprue for the peg. Drilled through where the old peg had broken off from, slightly smaller than the sprue, then sanded to a tight fit. Removed the peg, fitted the spring and locking plate onto the peg, pushed the peg into the housing until it reached the height to open and shut. When happy , I glued the peg in place with 2 pack epoxy. When dry, I cut off the excess peg that was protruding from the base of the housing, and job done. Refitted to car.....happy bunny
