If I come back in a second life I want to be a defense lawyer for the PTP. They are busier than a one armed brick layer in Baghdad and one can see why when they represent the people they do.

Would that be people trying to get a fair deal from the courts on the basis they are innocent until proven guilty?

Or is that concept out of the window nowadays?

Nope, that concept is very real. Thing is, all the evidence is there to prove she is guilty of massive negligence. Or are you looking at a different case to everyone else.

So with all the evidence already on full public view, I think it is realistic that the public are going to perceive her as being 99.999999% banged to rights.

If anything, the lawyers' case is just so desperate, and obviously scraping around for loopholes and technicalities to creep through instead of making a case for her defence.... really shows even the lawyers know she can't be saved in any sane society. Even Thailand's.

This is getting funnier by the day.... I was wondering how much stronger their case was than the stupidly embarrassing case they attempted to produce yesterday, but alas, it is just as stupid, if not stupider.

I truly believe these so called lawyers get their training from watching courtroom dramas right out of Hollywood. I have news for you guys..... It is fiction in the movies.

Anyway, why the hell are PTP and their backward lawyers still running around and clambering over each other to kiss Shinawatra butt?.... They are long finished. No more bones to be thrown.

They really should be a lot more proactive... I would be now looking at which arse to kiss next.... If I were a PTP lawyer.

A very sad story indeed, and all we have to attempt to counter these disgusting acts is to flood the area with 2,700 more guns.

You really would have a tough time making something like this place up.

The mother's husband was a defence volunteer when he was murdered. Difficult to ascertain if the family are Muslim or Buddhist. Many Thai Muslims have a Thai (Buddhist) name, although the Thai ID card does document the religion of the holder.

Yup, and they just produced 2,700 new defence volunteers to be used as target practice and a nice little extra source of weapons to be taken by the insurgents.

I don't think religion matters down there... Since when has someone's religion got in the way of a radicalized insurgent intent on murder? You just need to look at the middle east.

I would say that of all the people murdered by Islamic fundamentalists across the world well over 90% are other muslims.

Well the Thais always seem to think a flood is a great event.

I can remember the 2010 floods in Korat, their homes were washed with a meter of stinky water and they all seemed to think it was all a bit of fun.

I didn't.

Strange way of telling us what most of us already know.

The prosecution's case hit a snag when the Federal Court reprimanded Muhammad Shafee Abdullah for submitting a Thai scientific report.

He was reprimanded because everyone knows that anything coming from Thailand is irrelevant, as it is almost certainly a load of old <deleted>.

Racial discrimination.... does anyone in Thailand know those words?

Do you know the meaning of the word "race"?

Well considering that the topic is about migrant workers which are of a different 'race' as Thais. Then I am assuming he does understand the word race as his comment is 100% pertinent.

The actual irony is YOUR statement which indicates that YOU don;'t seem to assimilate the word race with his comment for some strange reason.

Thai news just gets more bizarre by the day.

Most days i tell myself, "well..... That has got to be the most insane yet".... Then it gets bettered a day or two later... So I have come to the conclusion that in fact, there is no limit to Thai stupidity.

Because without Thai expertise, the Israeli economy would crash in six months.

H will be out before he is 30, I can guarantee it. Free to enjoy the rest of his life.

He will never be safe if this is how he acts at this age, he will be a lost cause.

Put him out of his misery.

Yep..... wait till we paint over the logo, then blame the incident on Chinese lanterns.

Thailand needs to learn much more before it can be the "Hub".

But then again, what competition does Thailand have ? Not a lot.

Indonesia, with its much bigger and cheaper workforce, and probably more efficient too, as for trading of manufactured goods goes.

Singapore as far as financial trading is concerned.

I would probably say Vietnam and Phil;s would be up there with the vastly superior agricultural advancements in Vietnam and the English speaking capabilities of Phils

Just more BS being trumpeted out of Bangkok as usual.

POPULISM!!!!!!

100%

This shower should NOT be running Thailand. they clearly have no clue what the **** they are doing.

What's the betting that Prayuth will declare before the next election that he is going to form a party and stand as party leader. Once he is confident he has bought enough votes.

Yet another 'let's throw money at the problem' crazy idea because they basically don't know what else to do.

Money is not going to stop evil men who are fanatically radicalized from doing what they want to do...... Kill infidels.

The stage is set down there and nothing... not even 10 trillion baht is going to do a damn thing to stop anything while there are non-muslims living in that area and they don't have their silly islamic state in the south of Thailand.

Those seven points will be laughed out in pretty short order. I am already laughing my ass off.

If these are supposed to be lawyers, I would suspend their licenses, they are not fit to practice.

Any persons know to be holding information on this investigation should treated as suspects , the D.S.I have to step in to much covering up.

With all the cameras on that island and no one can identify the number 9 in video shaking hands with David (yeah right )

The police are geeting a lot more pressure on them now and I honestly think Prayuth no a lot more than we are hearing i am sure he would have an undercover investigation ongoing.

The Leg chains have been removed from the suspects that is telling something .

There are too doubts about the DNA especially after the comedy show the other day .

Why wont the police let the UK carry out all DNA testing on all eveidence .

This Is not going to end nice for the a lot of police involve in this investigation.

Also when will the UK police confirm that they were happy with the way Thai Police investigation was done and that they would have done it the same way ?

The UK police will not say a word until their official inquiry begins in January.

By then the suspects will still not be in court.

If there is a lot of doubt on the other side of the world, then this is going to end up hard core diplomatic, because the British public and the media will make sure of it.

I can see it pretty much hurting Thailand a hell of a lot.

I hope that guy dies before me.

I am so glad to be reading this.... My coffee tastes that much better this morning.

So Misery Merkel is 'threatening' to stop supporting Britain's membership of the EU?..... Lol.... Farage must be thinking all his Christmases have come at once.

Cameron will have nothing to put on the table to get the people of the UK to vote 'in' ..... Something he was banking on. The bare minimum would have had to be more flexibility in the movement rules. That won't happen now and he is going to have to resort to pure scaremongering, and Clegg already tried that in a head to head debate with Farage back in March/April..... and failed miserably.

Way to go Merkel. Help us out of the EU by all means. Because the way things are looking, once the UK is out, France won't be too far behind because their people have also had enough and the right wingers are on the march there too. So it will be France probably next, and after that Germany will be left to shore up 25 under-performing economies.

You got to hand it to the Germans... They have managed to turn the once 'common market' into the 'German Empire' and all without firing a single shot. I wonder what Germany is going to look like in 10 years?....... Probably bankrupt.

Stupporn British thinking !!

Germanys economy would be better without EU !!

That any economist says, except britains- as of fact - if you say yes,

a Brit have only one chance , to say NO !

I dont know at all why in the british vocabulary you find the word : AGREE ???

I haven't got the slightest clue what you are talking about.

But one thing is for sure.

Brussels needs the UK a hell of a lot more than the UK needs Brussels.

We will leave that is 100% guaranteed, then Germany and France can have our 3 million EU immigrants, then France will follow, and then that will be the lot landing on German soil.

Then there will be an almighty uprising by the German people if Germany stay in.

Their empire will come at a very high cost. I just hope and pray that the Euro project is destroyed by the markets before that happens.

She only wants freedom of movement so the majority actually end up in the UK rather than Germany!

If they keep allowing poor countries into the EU then they will continue to have economic migration which is not really what it was intended for!

Even if/when the UK leaves the EU, the UK government would be unlikely to restrict immigration.

They are not able to define what would be an appropriate level and nature of immigration..

They don't have the financial resources that would be required to police the borders and coastline effectively, despite having the real advantage of being an island nation.

I absolutely disagree.

They have the financial resources to do this easily.

They have a coastguard service, they have police, immigratin officers in place. they have the ability to never have to give access to benefits for these illegals, they already fine employers £10,000 for every illegal they employ and they do it as well.

They can easily force landlords to insist on a 'green card' style permit of residency before renting out property to them with a £10,000 fine if they don't conform.

There are entire seasons of this TV show, that shows just how difficult it is to get into the country. The biggest failing is that they don't ship 'so called' asylum seekers back to the place they entered from. That will change though when we are out of the EU.... When.... not if.

The time has come to stand up..... no more being tied to the European Court of Human Rights meaning we have to hold onto 'so called' asylum seekers.

Start handing out these £10K fines to a wider audience, make their life hell for assisting illegals to melt into the black economy.... they will get the hint eventually.
