In 'The Commonwealth Of Thieves' Tom Keneally notes some people were committing offences with the express intention of being sentenced to transportation to the penal colonies in Australia. Apologies for the secondary source.
Economist lets you read a limited number of articles free of charge each month. The link gave me the full article so perhaps you used up your quota, or their rules are different in your territory?
In England we have defense facilities disguised as farmhouses. We don't have land-based missiles but this [0] is/was a government bunker from which launch orders could be given. I wondered if you meant idiotic in the sense of unrealistic for America, or as a bad idea tactically?
I don't believe that is meant exclusively: You can get your funds from other sources, but funds originating in the UK are valid as well. There is no requirement that this be inward investment.
The employer will want to pay the least they can to get the job done. This means you will likely get paid an amount less than the value you create for others.
There are a lot of cases where you may choose to work for 7/h even though 8/h is on offer elsewhere such as a shorter commute, better hours, or nicer work environment.
Nuance's commerce site gave me a half-price offer when browsed from Chrome on Android that was not visible on the same browser on Linux and Windows machines. I suspect that it was some kind of error since it wasn't declared as a special offer, just shown with a lower price. I was actually quite surprised when the lower price held all the way through online checkout as I imagined the stock and checkout functions would be managed separately from the main site.
No such requirement in the UK, although it can be helpful in that if you are stopped by the police and they don't believe you are who you say you are, then they _may_ detain you until your identity can be confirmed.
BetaBoston had a related story looking at technical assistance to victims of domestic abuse.

I think this link has been posted on HN previously but I can't find it. Apologies for not crediting the person who posted it.
Likely the same for FirstDirect. I couldn't get the app set up on my rooted Nexus despite going through process with their support desk. I didn't discuss it with them, just asked for a key fob code generator instead.
There are two in-browser editors available from OSM itself, and the site includes tutorials.
I've used iD in Chromium on Ubuntu so I'm optimistic that you could use it with Debian.
For new lines/nodes you can trace over satellite images and/or upload GPS tracks and trace over them. You can also add metadata to existing data - eg mark a road as one-way for motor vehicles.
Entitlement to UK public healthcare is, essentially, that you are a current lawful resident. If you got a work visa (and are working - you can't be in breach of visa conditions) and moved here you'd be entitled.
Starting in 1788, Britain used a policy of 'Transportation' to colonies in Australia to relieve overcrowding in its prisons at home. Of course, Australia is now an independent country.
The book 'A Commonwealth of Thieves' by Thomas Keneally provides a very readable narrative of the first British people to settle there.
