I have never voted Labour in my life. In my adult lifetime up until now, how often in that time has a Labour government been in power? "Great" Britain has a working class of maybe around 80%. So I ask again, how come the Tories have been in power for so much of that time compared to Labour if the Labour Party is really the party of the working class? Even today the Labour Party is ruled by a "Sir". Party of the working class my AAAAASSSSSSSS!!!!

When anyone is killed in an accident because they were wearing a seat belt and were unable to free themselves, you will never read about it or hear it in the news.

Seat belts have saved many lives, but also caused a few as well.

The whole thing about the OP's excellent post is having real genuine common sense, and a part of that is do not ever drink or drive. If you do that then common sense is right out the window.

Excellent post. The membership of the "scared of your own shadow" brigade must be overflowing here in Thailand. I have found it better to live by my own rules rather than these made up by faceless people sitting round tables. I have lived like this my whole life without ever having had a criminal record. The most important thing is never do anything that affects the ordinary working class people in any negative way.

Your the one who's being silly, pay about 14,000 Bt, for retirement ext's then spend what part of the 400,000 you want and no hassle with the agents, and you don't have to put up with all the unnecessary nonsense from IO's.

A booster at my local government hospital was supposed to be free, they asked for 100bt, I questioned it and then they wanted 1000Bt, seriously this is true.

See an agent for retirement extensions and forget the 400,000 Bt in the bank. Or you could join the "scared of your own shadow" brigade.

Surely any government must need a PM who was elected by the Thai electorate.

Yes, next time I go to the UK I will be doing my rounds of Sainsbury's, Asda, Morrison's etc. ????????

I am not saying you are wrong, but I hope you feel much the same about the unelected coup leading ex PM.

"Only a fool would ride a motorbike in Thailand." What a load of garbage, there are still plenty of responsible people riding motorbikes.

Stupidity is in the Thai genes.

But some parents don't care at all, their attitude is like, we can just go to bed and make another one.

Yes, if any of the children who were under age were driving the motorbike, then their parents are to blame for this, and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

I met another farang out side the Pattaya hospital, the one on Soi Buckawo, a government hospital I believe, and he told he was asked to pay 500Bt before he could even see the doctor. I took a look inside the hospital and there were lot's of people waiting, Thai people. Am I supposed to believe that they had all paid 500Bt to sit down and wait for any treatment? I cannot say for sure and can only go by what this farang said to me, but it does seem that only farangs are charged this 500Bt.

There is a shop near the end of Soi Buckawo on the same side of Treetown on the left hand side but farther down which advertises ear cleaning for 200Bt, I have not tried it, I just saw the notice in the window as I was walking past.

If the UK government can rip off state pensioners by not giving them their annual increases and get away with it, then any government in any country can also rip them off in any way they want.

Nice to see the police earning their wages for a change, now how about them getting out on the roads and doing a blitz on all these dangerous drivers and motorbike riders who are contributing to Thailand's dreadful road statistics?

"when newly elected Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin took office," Elected?? By the Thai electorate??

Someone has put up a confused emo.

No! I would never wear a gold chain or any jewelry. Very poofy on a man.

There is no (watch now) on your link, but I found their website and got it from there. Thanks.

Thanks, but this link only takes me to get information about the movies, not the actual movies themselves.

That is the way it will always be as long as there are soldiers in the mix.
