again because they are selfish people.....how many times you need telling ..

This is a little premature considering 99% of British business hasn't planned on leaving yet

It's not up to British business. If the referendum goes ahead, it will be the people that decide.......

...talk about the blind leading the blind.

My post isn't an opinion. It's a fact.

no correct facts though.....read up on the truth sir

Its a powerful protest if people boycott certain companies or products but for a lot of people they cant be bothered. I am semi bothered and personally wont eat Mcdonalds anymore as there have been so many reports that show they buy rotten meats unfit even dog food, apply chemicals processes to it to recreate as an edible food like product like their burgers. They only have 19 ingredients in their french fries! Theres no respect for their customers with those practices. Avoid, boycott.

Boots the chemist does lots of trading in the UK but when it comes to paying tax they say they are based in Switzerland not the UK even though you stood at the check-out , paid , bought you stuff in the UK. For them your transaction happened in Switzerland. The tax that Boots avoids gets paid by joe average PAYE worker. I dont use Boots anymore.

Starbucks UK argues it has never made any profit in the UK ever so they never pay tax ever. Strange thing is even though they never make a penny of profit they have opened new stores year in year out. They have 500 stores? More maybe. Most firms cut back or remove themselves from the market when they cant make a profit. Starbucks opens more stores to increase the losses! Its all bogus. The tax they dont pay gets dumped on joe average worker who is not allowed to avoid his or her taxes. Many people though think its stupid to boycott Starbucks even when they have pick up the tax shortfall in their paychecks. They dont get it. They love Starbucks.

its for these same reasons i boycott these shops .but they get away with it because there allowed to

didnt see the do you know who i am..in the op report..more abuse of power ..by the govener they are so lazy to walk anywhere these people

I will remember to sue my missus when the rice goes off in the cupboard....

lol.she will only take it back out of your account as you well know..

"It reflects our irresponsibility. I'm not confident that we can meet the deadline unless we put up a show [to deceive]."

Well.....at least they recognise that they are irresponsible....completely and utterly!

And.....thinking that cheating is the way they might go....as always.

This OP really indicates the insane level of ignorance and incompetence that these people possess!

and he was an mp..you couldnt make it up....fingers crossed for a ban ..

Been there done that it is hard yes so what I did was take on a second job and went to college part time for a few years My reward was after those few years was down to one job at three times I was making before. So living standard went up again and so did expenses So ended again a second job and saved every penny till enough to go on my own. Well back to one job but the hours it took to run it were long vacation Not a day for 20 years reward retired and well off now. It is about choices plain and simple.

are you quoting as a thai...i doubt that...get real remember where you are..not everyone has chances or choices do they..i doubt one of your so called jobs involved working in a field in the hot sun...YOU WILL SAY YOU DID just so you dont lose your superior farang face..

Again, that overriding "don't you know who I am, how dare you, we had the people's mandate to do what the hell we wanted to, I don't need to tell you anything" attitude rears it's very ugly little head.

yeah, unfortunately for them they didn't have article 44 to support their actions

your right they had thaksin on there side...

the village fund money....wheres that gone over 40 years...next story...

personally id have driven into them if they did this to me

And reversed back up and over them.

just to be doubly sure of course hahahahahahaha

barbaric isis u.s. same same

Whether we agree with his release or not is not the issue here. But to throw him back into prison for not recharging a battery is pure spite.

or just a loophole to get him put back inside..how he didnt get life for 40 rapes is amazing..in any country i would have thought...

it seems 2a.m. is the right time to steal..sorry harvest this fruit...so as not to disturb anyone..

My God! Thais are being more like the black Nigerians each day! Thailand is beyond salvation!

to date i aint seen a white one...remember its just their greed that leaves them blinkered..

a trade agreement in the offing and he offers regret..not we are sorry for being utterly inhuman towards our fellow humans...NOT GOOD ENOUGH..

This is rich. The anti-democratic yellow-shirt monk whose thugs forcibly shutdown Chaeng Wattana and attempted to kidnap journalist Nick Nostitz among other crimes is now a leader of reform? And the clueless WP reporter takes that at face value? Rather than, say, seeing a purge of red-shirt monks under the name of getting rid of corruption?

what is a yellow shirt, you really don't get it do you

did he ever........

they are starting to sing like canaries hahahahaha....its the face loss i love they would rather lose both legs than this ultimate humiliation (in there eyes)...

why oh why did they give them 6 months for eons this has been going on..the eu didnt do anything before either..just ban them today..then maybe...and its a small maybe.........

May both of them Rest in Peace.

And may be the husband will be judged by his creator when he meets him.

Now is all a sad history, what's the point of criticizing him or others?

He also got a family, left behind.

costas the country is in better shape without a shit like this still stealing oxygen..as for being judged by his creator thats his parents yes..

you know theres something wrong when a 100 baht ticket costs 110 baht..and the top prize never changes..where has all that money gone..i know dont tell me...new submarines.

as stupid and selfish as that tw-at palin..and i thought us brits were bottom of the food chain when it comes to politicions....oh well you live and learn...there are more than 2 parties to vote for you know....or do ya..

Pot meet kettle. Which country doesn't have skeletons in its closet? None of us was alive to do those things.

Germany accusing another country of genocide, and wanting to stir the pot. How quaint.

Please place the statement in context. Also note that for the first time, a German high official has acknowledged the role that Germany played in the Armenian genocide. Germany for a long time didn't want to address the issue.

I would argue that the Germans aged 50 and under who have taken on their past genocidal history allowed one of the remaining German taboos to be dealt with. The Germany of today is essentially a different country than 50 years ago, and even 25 years ago. Although the absorption of the backward east disrupted social progress for awhile, Germany has attained the higher moral ground now when it comes to human rights issues because of its willingness to critically examine its past. It was a difficult exercise, but getting rid of those skeletons has made Germany stronger. Look at the change in attitudes even a recent generation has made: Previously the prosecutors didn't want to go after WWII junior concentration camp guards. Well, now, the younger generation has spoken and they said get them, and we now have the accountant of Auschwitz finally facing justice. I honestly believe that Germany is returning to its rightful role that it occupied in the late 1800's as a force of enlightenment and a land of integrity.

Yes, I absolutely second all that. Well said!

Incidentally, one reason why the worst of the Nazi criminals were not prosecuted ruthlessly after the war was the apparant need to hold back Russian influence.

Without any sense of irony, Germany is one of the most civilised and peaceful societies I know

it took them long enough though..after 2 attempts at world domination..but they have the consolation of ruling europe now ..albeit financially..

This will REALLY motivate cabbies to deal with alien customers if they are fined for something they don't understand. Thainess at its best; I wanted to flag down a car and he passed with open window "no farang"! Must have been among those fined lately I guess....

"Thainess at its best".........................stupid comment. This is to do with arrogant taxi drivers picking the best customers as far as they are concerned and giving the rest a snub.

That's all. If you are basing the Thai population on the attitude of taxi drivers it does not say much for you.

WRONG it says much about this country ...... you must be house bound not to know that mikey lad..

don't commit the crime, if you can't do the time

t the prices we were paying in the uk for this cheap baccy..i would like to think of it s a tax rebate..
