So what ?

We understood both the context and the content of this racist speech. Because it happened long before the latest Scottish legislation it needs to be referred to the UK police referencing the UK hate crimes laws.

It makes no sense to allow the drinking of alcohol, the smoking of cigarettes and the (limited) consumption of meth, but not to allow regulated cannabis availability.

What are you talking about ? Comments on posts are much the same wherever they are written.

If people would switch from alcohol to weed there would be much less violence and alcohol-related illness in Thailand. Utterly fatuous comment from the PM.

Ignorant comment. Not only backpackers enjoy weed. It's way more civilised than alcohol or meth.

Not exactly an important issue. Some shelves will, inevitably, need to be replenished during the working day.

Notwithstanding the comments by JustAnotherHun this is a move in the right direction. It introduces a degree of control, at least, over a substance which has hitherto been in the hands of gangs/ criminals.

Simple short term solution, start medication without delay. Longer term societal issues more complicated.

I very much doubt weed was the cause of this incident. Alcohol more likely to be the culprit, as the man's wife later confirmed.

The TAT are favouring quantity over quality. Big mistake.

Based on my own experience I advise you not to buy any car, in this climate, with a panoramic roof.

I have found massage by a properly qualified person has been remarkably helpful.

Bookmakers everywhere now offering odds-on for a Trump win come November 5. They're usually, if not always, right.

Sounds like Braverman for shadow PM and Jenrick for shadow chancellor of the exchequer, post election.

More likely for re-sale then.

Likewise. Never known our pool to feel so hot.

Read it properly. He was chopping away at his mother's 'already severed' head.

Not remotely the behaviour of a cannabis user. More like crystal meth (ya-ba), or alcohol.

PM's true colours now revealed by a covert interview conducted abroad, including a comment that he intends to eliminate any sense of a 'free wheeling liberal atmosphere' in Thailand. What a miserable prospect.

What a load of depressing banality. Lighten up for heaven's sake !

Thank you. Much enjoyed.

The timing of both Easter and Christmas has pagan origins.
