If i may reply again?

'm not going to get political here in China,

Fair enough, but that just proves my point surely. Anyway, think I'll leave it there, tightly wound enough as it is...

and teaching illegally isn't the crime of the century. Honestly, I have no fear about a knock at the door from the authorities. That's just me.

Fair enough, as I said, just not for me, nowt personal.

In fact, breaking visa regulations is small beer here compared to what it would be in Blighty.

There is still a fine, it's better not to risk the hassle, again just me.

As for many people in the UK not envying me living here in China, so what? Who cares?

Not saying a proverbial "who", just many would prefer to enjoy the freedoms in the UK, as opposed to the lack of those freedoms in China, free press, free internet amongst two that I would personally never give up, you just can't have those in China, you pushed my buttons on this point, you got my answer.

I don't give a damn about your warnings.

I didn't threaten or warn you nor use foul language at any point, but ok.

I'll continue to go my own way here - end of story!

OK, again, your right to do that, I'm just disagreeing with you about it, without an exclaimation mark, perhaps the boozing and smoking is getting to you, hope not, you seem a nice bloke, just a difference of opinion, thats all. I still maintain working legally in ANY country is sensible, not foolish.

I will look at your link, but won't promise I will listen to it. I still maintain that the UK and other commonwealth realms are far freer than China ever will be.

And Blighty has the most street cameras/head of population in the world.

Agreed. I have read that before.

Observers are saying it has become a police state.

Can you wear a I hate the president t shirt there? Again, not personal, sorry for including that, just riled me somewhat.

If you don't listen to the link, you'll not know why.

Exercising the freedom not to listen perhaps, for all those in china who would need a vpn to listen!

Peace and good luck in finding gainful employment!

Thanks, and light...
