A tough guy with street smarts joins the team to help Trump clean out the Augean Stables. What a contrast this lot is to the limp-wristed woke libs who have dominated Washington for so long.

By all accounts a nasty piece of work. Her past exploits have included financial misconduct as well as violence on more than one occasion. Do the Shins really know who they are bringing onboard?

This Alphabet Soup turned into a stinking gumbo a long time ago. Time to throw it all out and provide some basic and fundamental protections for what is done in private by consenting adults. Promoting a perverted agenda is no longer wanted by the majority of people anywhere in the world where they have a voice to oppose it.

Weasel. Whatever he says from now on will be judged with this spineless flip-flop in mind.

+1 for The Duke's Iron Bridge. You didn't mention pizza. IM [not so] HO it is the Gold Standard in CM. Not quite comparable to what you get in Little Italy; Court St. in Brooklyn; or Arthur Ave. in the Bronx, but it is very good and has been for many years now. That said, I'm always glad to try another place. Any suggestions?

Good points that would be hard to contradict. My own experience with them has been that the majority of expats here seem rather more intelligent than the average Faranglander. One of the earlier posts on this thread described the disinclination to learn Thai as "willful ignorance." I think that nails it.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

What a masterful put-down. Not only of an individual parroting an agenda, but of the ideology itself. My only disagreement is your view of when things will change ... it certainly won't be with the "...next election" in the UK. Low-class Brits start taking in socialism along with their mother's milk and that nasty resentment of people better off than they are lasts a lifetime. It's a generational thing that will not change anytime soon - or until the last communist is strangled with the guts of the last woke progressive.

Talk about "Wealth beyond the dreams of avarice" that takes the cake. That said, she is probably just doing her duty - as she sees it - by fronting for other members of her corrupt clan.

For sliced whole wheat I like what comes from JJ Bakery and is available at Rim Ping, Iron Bridge. Nana Bakery for French bread and many other baked goods. l'Opera for everything except sliced bread.

The facts in this case are out and beyond dispute. He is trying to rehabilitate his image. A weasel if ever there was one.

So true. She is about as articulate as Kamala Harris.

Point to the head, it's obviously brain damage.

CIA? Mossad? Subject him to some enhanced interrogation and find out.

Mamma mia, dario... I'd like to find the same thing - a good Italian deli. Ragu Rustico Italiano in the (now defunct) Promenada Mall was an excellent restaurant that also had a small deli section. Sadly, just a memory now. You might try asking around at the better restaurants where they source out tbeir Italian ingredients. Buona Fortuna!

It sounds like you are having some problems of your own in expressing yourself. Maybe you caught something from one of them.

This sounds more like the goings on among a den of thieves rather than people who are entrusted to teach and enforce the law.

My Thai wife and our two grown, and successful, daughters will provide, they tell me. I hope so. A return to the US is something I wouldn't even want to think about nowadays.

That nanny-state mindset goes far beyond the BBC and far beyond the UK. It is one of the main reasons I, and so many others, gladly left the Faranglands never to return.

Amen bro. The same could be said about Thailand vis à vis the USA .

Oxford... as long as they don't lay it on too thick. The people speaking it are usually intelligent and courteous also.

No.

Yes indeed. What a sweet reconciliation it would be if he did show up for the occasion. Then again, he might pull a "thomas markle" and have a convenient "heart attack" just before the big day. Never dull where a POC in high office is involved.

Don't panic. Just don't have any close contact with monkeys.

If a burglar knows the houseowner has a gun, he will most probably choose another house to burgle.
