    I really don't know what to say, I can offer my condolences but words mean nothing. No one deserves to lose their life on what is supposed to be a dream holiday, my heart goes out to you and your family.
    I sincerely hope action is taken as a result of the petition.

    Hi all,
    Just to give you an update..
    Ben's mum has been in contact with the local MP and he's been very supportive. He has said that it's something that we can look into.
    The BBC are getting statistic on the most recent deaths and they're keeping in close contact with Bens Mum. They think there is a story. We've had lots of families come forward who have also lost family members in Thailand and they're even talking of maybe a documentary.
    It's all so exciting to actually get somewhere.
    Thank you for the support.

    Hi Everyone
    Just bumping this up again, the petition asking for the government to look into his death and that of other Western travellers is gaining momentum, and has currently nearly 13,000 signatures.
    Pats mum, is looking for one final push to get it to 15,000 signatures.


    I am asking you please if you can find it in your heart to get behind this petition and share it far and wide. It would mean so much to the family and if something comes of this we know Ben wouldn't have died in vain. So please sign if you haven't and if you could send it on who could sign or publicise it further please do

    https://www.change.org/p/theresa-may-british-deaths-in-thailand-need-to-be-inves

    Cheers and thank you

    Just got an up date from Pat:-
    12 Dec 2017 — 10,450 signatures, hello Downing Street, please keep sharing so that it makes the debate in Parliament, you have all been amazing � x

    Done. Highlights the benefits of our legal system despite its perceived failings from time to time.
