    A lot of people have had enough of the Tories, understandably, but then the famous picture of Starmer and Rayner taking the knee to the BLM emerges..

    The PM is out of his depth. He has no idea of the games the jail runaway from Dubai is playing.

    If you think Anutin is as anti-expat as Thaksin you are seriously mis-informed.
  4. Thingamabob
    Still the land of smiles by comparison with most other countries, in my opinion.
  5. Thingamabob
    Best thing the Tories can do is to keep circulating the picture of Starmer and Raynor taking the knee to BLM.

    Cross and double-cross going on. The guy from Dubai, who ran away to avoid a two year jail sentence for bribery, is back and playing his old games. PM out of his depth.

    How things have changed. Went to Samui for the first time in 1980 with my wife. No bars, no roads. Rented two hammocks by the beach for 10 baht each. Paradise.

    Far too many people already. When I was born, in 1941, the world population was under 3 billion. It is now over 8 billion, and growing at an even faster rate. Unpleasant and unsustainable. Problem is, no one wants to talk about it, preferring endless verbage on climate change.

    If, I repeat if, it is true that the Brits didn't pay their bill they were asking for trouble. The bar employees will be charged for whatever amount is involved.

    Is it right that, if Trump is found guilty, the appeal process could go on for years ?

    It's now reported that the Russian was actually harassing their daughter.
  12. Thingamabob
    If the reports are correct he was defending his Thai wife. Ha might just get away with this. Stupid and less than bright, though, to have punched the Russian.

    A friend who was there told me the abuse directed at Trump initially faded early on, and he was being well-received by the end if his speech. This appears to have been the case after reading through the entire article.

    Started by Labour under Blair/Brown, made worse by the Tories. Who can turn this sad condition around ?
  15. Thingamabob
    Sadly, I fear you are right.
  16. Thingamabob
    A good idea, but it will never happen.
  17. Thingamabob
    What are the benefits of having a residency certificate ?
  18. Thingamabob
    If you run the Thai branch of a top multi-national with heavy investments in Thailand you will move in high society, otherwise not.

    Buddhism is a philosopy, not a religion. What we have in Thailand is ldolatry and a belief in reincarnation, hence the refusal to put animals down for fear of being punished in the next life.
  20. Thingamabob
    Absolutely right on both points. He is a puppet. He was always going to be shafted by Thaksin, clearing the way for a Shinawatra takeover. However, Thaksin is not liked in establishment circles, will likely over-estimate his importance as he did previously, and find himself on the way back to Dubai sooner or later.

    To say that the decriminalisation of cannabis is ' turning Thailand's youth into a bunch of stoners' is ignorant, stupid and totally untrue.
  22. Thingamabob
    Swiss language ? Really ?
  23. Thingamabob
    The people are friendly but life is rather chaotic outside the tourist areas. I wouldn't recommend it as a place to retire to.
  24. Thingamabob
    Abortion is a tricky subject. Many years ago my wife had an abortion, entirely with my agreement, but it has troubled us both ever since.

    Whatever the provocation best not to be hitting someone else's 6 year old.
