  1. Thanks for leaving. The more rightwing nut jobs that we can be rid of the better. As for the visa change hopefully this is a stepping stone to full visa on arrival status for all Thai people visiting one of the greatest countries on earth, The Great White North, Canada.
  2. I am a social démocrate so would never vote Liberal Party. My NDP hold the balance of power and are doing a great job in getting some great legislation passed. You are right about the Cons sucking.
  3. We don't miss you. What's really going on? The French kids take your lunch money @ school? As for Justin he has won 3 elections in a row. His government just banned war weapons for sale, increased pension benefits for retirees over 70 and enacted a child dental program. The Trump wannabe leading the Cons, a climate change denier, has zero chance of beating him next election. Canadian media reported that the Royal Thailand Embassy gave the Canadian federal Minster of Justice, a Quebecer, written assurances that the death penalty was not to be applied if found guilty. The accused served 9 years in the Canadian army, special forces, including a tour in Afghanistan. Then worked as a mercenary in Syria and Iraq. It's being speculated that he was a professional hit man. Who knows how many assassinations he got away with.
  4. LBJ announced he would be withdrawing in late March 1968. That timeline is almost 10 months from now. I expect the same from Biden. Any sooner makes him a long time lame duck. That's if he can make it that long.
  5. They certainly do understand what democracy is about and want no part of it. Their wish is to take Thailand back to pre-1932.
  6. Completely ridiculas. Everyone knows the USA uses its >$80B foreign intel/espionage budget to do only good deeds. Like paying for the Peace Corps and whatnot, 555.
  7. Way too early for Biden to declare himself a lame duck. American politics would become even more of a 3 ring circus than it already is. LBJ didn't signal he wasn't running again until March 31, 1968. Should Biden use the same timeline that's more than 10 months from now
  8. I really don't think Trump has much of a chance at regaining the Oval Office. Well, unless Biden gets the nomination once again
  9. On this issue the majority of USA federal politicians are bought by the gun manufacturers' lobby. That country has a very corrupt political system starting with the courts.
  10. The coward incited others to storm the US Capital building but passed going in himself. Then lamented aftewards that the insurrectionists weren't armed. Personally I think he got off easy.
  11. He is a member of a junta party. The wishes of the voting public is of no concern to him.
  12. Nigel will receive major confirmation of his statement once the rest of the E.U.'s financial services industry leaves London for the continent. https://www.politico.eu/article/britains-economic-self-harm-gives-eu-excuse-to-snatch-more-financial-control/
  13. She might also want to help out her ex the senator recently criminally charged with money laundering.
  14. If Nig was capable of total honesty he would have added that the Tory's failed at an impossible task. But then he was also all for the Truss tax cuts for the rich that nearly cratered the UK economy.
  15. That is great to hear. I use to enjoy arranging campaigns like that. Takes me back to my militant union boss days.
  16. Those senators need to be named and shamed. Boycotts of any businesses they are connected to should be started. Make their lives hell
  17. I would think if they were to abstain then only 251 votes would be required to elect a new Prime Minister.
