Starving to the point of death involves a lot of pain. I am disgusted by the callous comments made by some of today's posters. Be ashamed. This was a young person who truly believed in her cause. RIP brave young lady.

Another Thaksin-inspired special. Personally I prefer not to eat 10 years old rice.

I know how you felt. Recently I was at my local 711, only one cashier operating, and in front of me a woman buying an apple. It took 5 minutes of 'phone activity for the woman to conclude her purchase. This is a recurring situation in my experience. Not a problem for me as I have no time pressure, but frustrating for those who need to get a move on.

30k plus people attending a Trump rally deep in Democratic territory ? Impressive, whatever one thinks of the guy.

'Outraged citizens demanding an urgent probe' appears somewhat contradictory...

At 83 that would be fine for me ! Seriously though, 'the verdict is in'. Really ? That was remarkably quick, driven by politics rather than scienceI no doubt. Further, post-covid, I have no time at all for so-called 'experts'

What about shops and bars selling alcohol and cigarettes ?

The fact is Israelis, men, women and chidren, were brutally attacked and butchered on October 7. Israel will not rest until the perpetrators, Hamas, are eliminated. Biden's advisors need to think long and hard before encouraging him to seemingly back Hamas.

I wish this had happened to me when I was at school.

Seems a rather complicated way of doing business. I wonder at what point he got paid ?

The study will quite likely recommend further studies...

The advice of the 'experts' in the UK was a disaster. I doubt we will ever fully recover from the effects of the lockdowns. Children lost two years of schooling, perfectly fit people were forced to stay at home. In one instance two elderly ladies were arrested for sitting next to each other on a bench in the open air in a park. That was the kind of regime we were living under. Not remotely a Trump fan but I think there is something worth listening to in what he says on this subject.

The quality of cannabis being produced in Thailand in the 1960s and 1970s was as good as that produced anywhere else in the world, arguably the best.

Rubbish. Alcohol and meth, not cannabis, are the main contributors to road deaths.

Although he had run away from Thailand by the time it was implemented the rice pledging scheme was yet another Thaksin-inspired disaster.

Not remotely a valid opinion although you are, of course, entitled to it.

Revealing...

Britain has sleepwalked into a disaster and will be a muslim country under sharia law within 50 years. Best to get out now, if you can.

Wait and see.

Understood. Maybe amazing for you, and others, but straightforward and simple for me.

If you read beyond the totally misleading headline you will gather that Anutin is far from agreeing with the PM's ridiculous attempt to make a u-turn on the use of cannabis. Notable in the last few days headlines and photos on AN no longer match the articles which follow.

Well said.

Some years ago the BMA placed garbage bins in several busy locations. They were all stolen within 24 hours.

Living and working in several Muslim countries, including Saudi Arabia, I became very much aware of the contempt they have for other religions. A reward in heaven for the killing of an infidel is a tenet deeply embedded in their faith. Very worrying that so many liberal western democracies appear to have no conception of, or deny, the danger that is gradually encircling them.

Much more to come on this. The fact remains, cannabis is far less harmful than cigarettes, alcohol and crystal meth, and has beneficial medical use.
