It doesn't matter what they are wearing or if they are lord and lady Muck, they have a right to protest, the only exception would be wearing a police or army uniform because they represent state power. I find it degrading that these days public figures have to suppress personal opinions and if not, offer up grovelling apologies, because their opinions weren't pc or woke enough. Comedians like Ricky Gervais or Bill Burr are courageous enough not to give a $hit about such nonsense.

He already is, he never stopped influencing politics.

That's the fault of the system / government, not the doctors. Everybody has the right of peaceful protest regardless of their profession although I don't regard the 'just stop oil' movement as peaceful but regardless of that their private lives shouldn't affect their professional lives, why for instance should a politician resign because he commits adultery, why should a film star be cancelled because he isn't PC, this is MacCarthyism.

Getting both sides of the story is irrelevant, the police represent the state and have power, they are foreigners and have none. If they are hoping for an unbiased trial western style they are in for a big disappointment, what they did was foolish in the extreme. Refusing to stop was arrogant and things escalated from there, the RTP can't let this go, the loss of face alone was enormous, they are bound to be locked up for years.

Kids on holiday, rocking each other higher. disrespectful yes certainly, not only to the guard but also towards the UK's traditions but hardly criminal. These guards are trained to withstand such bad manners and experience such rudeness on a daily basis, not just from Americans but from UK citizens as well, some times jovial other times less so, the situation shouldn't be exaggerated, they had their childish fun and got a ticking off, end of story.

Move Forward Dissolution Bid Part Of Thaksin’s Secret Deal

The 1% rule in every country, if you control the markets you control decisions made by government, a generals power pales into insignificance against a falling stock market. People only rebel when their comfort zone is threatened. -
No chance, nothing better than getting honest adoration when returning home, both competing for my attention by showing me how fantastic I am, they should make women like that.

My dogs started doing that to my car, at first I was baffled but it turned out I had a mouse family under the carpets underneath the rear seat. I live in Isaan and the car was parked next to my rice barn. Once I got rid of the mice the attacks stopped.

Normal dogs don't attack a human being, yes they will bark and maybe chase a bike but that is all. when I first started walking around the lake here all the dogs from the adjacent houses would bark at me and sometimes follow me barking, I remained calm, after 4 or 5 visits they realized I wasn't a danger and ignored me. once while sitting on the ground looking over the lake one of them came over and unceremoniously dumped itself on my lap wagging its tail.

I have two run of the mill Thai mongrel dogs from the temple, they kill any cat unlucky enough to stray into my garden but lick my wife's grand kids (toddlers) until they fall over giggling. They don't like strangers coming into my house and will bark until I show them they are welcome, that's pretty normal behaviour.

One can sue for wrongful arrest, in fact the police only seem to react when threatened with a lawyer or publicity, there is an organization that will take on cases for free if it's in the public interest. A police officer having a son who is a murderer........bad news for him. Anyone know what is happening to the perps?

Well it's a start. Controlling teens at a rebellious age can be difficult but their horrific crime points to other, more serious things, that have gone wrong with their upbringing, this went way beyond bike racing and fighting. The parents are probably at the low end of society where even prison wouldn't cause a change of heart.

Frenchman’s trial unveils multi-million euro Rolex replica ring

Personally I can't suppress my admiration for him, from a Pizza deliveryman to a rich man with a fortune at 25 takes some doing. He isn't a violent criminal or a scammer screwing over the innocent, he supplied a product people want, naturally Rolex with their overpriced product don't like him, they scam legally.
