    1. if you drive at the speed limit you won’t have a problem

    2. the speed camera will be well signposted (car on the left so this is the UK) while it’s not a legal requirement that they have signposts I’ve never come across a fixed camera that isn’t

    3. If you don’t break the law you won’t have a problem

    4. the camera is painted bright yellow for visibility

    5. once again for the those at the back who are hard of thinking: don’t speed and you won’t get fined

    6. usually for first time offences if you’re just a bit over the limit you’ll get the option of a speed awareness course.

    7. You’ve probably come to expect odd numbered points to tell you to not break the law by now, so I’ll mix it up: if you get caught breaking the law and get a slap on the wrist, don’t keep breaking the law.


    I do agree though that the fining structure should be reformed, it should be a percentage of income with some provision in place so the super rich can’t get out of paying their appropriate share too.













  • I don’t get it. If you’re an immigrant who’s already made it to the EU, why would you want to go to England in the first place?

    As a Brit, that’s better.

    Jokes aside, here’s a couple of reasons I can think off the top of my head.

    1. English is really common for people to speak as a second language. More likely to be drawn to a country where they have some chance of being able to communicate.

    2. they may have friends or family already here (maybe who’ve chosen the UK due to point 1). People are far more likely to go somewhere where they already know people.
