  1. The problems for Starmer start with his appearance, and get worse when he speaks.
  2. For mental disorder read feckless and lazy.
  3. I agree, but with an amendment ie some do, many don't.
  4. These scenes are typical of those that can now be observed in areas of many major cities in America and, increasingly, in western Europe. The so-called war on drugs has been a hugely expensive failure in terms of lives and money. Whether narcotics or opioids, way better to legalise, licence, regulate, control and tax.
  5. 'The woodchipper was more of a joke'. Really ? I suggest you seek medical help.
  6. 'The snake was released safely back into the wild'. I somehow doubt that.
  7. This was a significant turnout at Victory Monument. It's location will register with many Thai people. I sense the Shinawtras may soon be heading for the exits , notwithstanding their financial clout.
  8. Beware of deranged Aussies. Best left well alone.
  9. Clearly much more to this story than is reported so far. It appears that the wife/girlfriend screamed 'Why did you do this to me ? '. That question remains unanswered.
  10. Fully take your point re scrutiny only being applied to honest applicants.
  11. These 'sources' have already been discredited. The damage to the Iranian nuclear sites has been devastating according to qualified officials from both the Iranian and US governments.
  12. For 'mental disorder' read 'lazy and feckless'.
  13. I wouldn't call him a liar, merely a bore.
  14. Immigration officials are welcome to visit us at our house in Bangkok any time although they have never done so during my last 40 years plus in Thailand. If this is genuinely a tougher scrutiny of us expats I am very much in favour of it
  15. Don't panic, these changes may never happen. There is already back- tracking going on, with a delay of up to 90 days already announced, while the Shinawatra govt is facing a no-confidence vote.
  16. Time will tell, although it does appear that Iran's nuclear development facilities were significantly damaged by a well planned and executed bombing raid. I suspect Israeli intelligence will confirm the extent of the serious damage before too long.
  17. I suspect this delay on new cannabis regulations could well run on for longer than 60 days depending on how Thaksin's bid for legalising casinos goes. Anutin is still a player in this game and has powerful backing. If Anutin comes round to supporting Thaksin's ambition for casinos it is likely the proposed reforms of his cannabis business will be quietly dropped.
  18. Sadly one person, standing behind Trump, was shot and died. Those were real bullets, and intended for DJT.
  19. Thais may not be quite as amicable as they once were but they are still one of the friendliest people on Earth.
  20. Time to get into the medical prescription business.
  21. I may be wrong but I seem to remember these restrictions were introduced during Thaksin's tenure as PM.
