The EU is obviously failing and spiralling out of control. The theory is nice but in practice its not working. Either fix it by making serious changes or accept the fact its breaking down and leave.

Muslim women wear their veil for religious reasons.Will he now bring into law that sikhs remove their turbans or for safety's sake make them wear crash helmets.Why is this allowed?Because of a sikhs religious reasons....Unfair and discriminatory.

Muslim women do not wear the veil for religious reasons, its nothing to do with being a Muslim. Its a personal choice, however its a highly enforceable requirement by Muslim men. One of the main reasons is to protect women from Muslim men who cannot control themselves sexually. E.g. Multiple examples currently in the EU.

Now that's BS if I ever heard it. Safety, sure!

Having these luxury cars goes again the basic teaching of Buddha and therefore should be sold with the proceeds used to feed and cloth the hungry in Thailand. The Abbott should set a good example currently its the wrong example. Greed and Desire and this will only lead to suffering.

RIP little man. I hope your next life is better.

The phrase......"Couldn't catch a cold comes to mind".

Ahhhh the LOS, glad to see they have their priorities right !.

If these aliens arrive I'm sure they wont stay for long, especially when they see the paperwork they need just to get a simple visa.

Why would any country want to join the EU the way it is at the moment. Unelected bureaucrats living the high life, dictatorship approach and flooded with illegal immigrants, with more on the way.

RTP are going to improve traffic congestion. That would make a nice change rather than what they do now, which is the complete opposite. Lets see how long this lasts for.

You have got to laugh at the with what they come up with. Land of smiles no....Land of stupidity!

wow, didn't even know there are box jelly fish around these shores. They can be in the sea day and night but more often at night I believe. Beaches definitely need signs to warning swimmers. RIP.

Farang massively overcharged at national park...........because he is a farang and that's what Thailand does. Welcome to the world of equality. Doh sorry that's another country I was thinking of.

Very steep for a visa problem. Most countries would fine and then deport them. It does sound a bit fishy as mentioned above.

Peerayuth Singpattanakul, Director of Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand, said yesterday the trains don’t get to transport the passengers at full capacity during rush hours because of the empty spaces. Well it must be true then .......erm I wonder if he has every travelled on the MRT during rush hour! Empty spaces? Must be on other MRT trains because the one's I've travelled on are completely full. You have to fight your way in when trying to get on one and you have to fight your way to the door when its your stop. Guess he wants it more like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VblpZELt6dc

Seen many monks with video camera, ipads, smart phones etc, so he is definitely not alone in helping himself to donations, however he seems to be the richest monk by far.

Poor girl, only 28 and probably had a shitty life to date. RIP.

RIP little man, what a wasted life. Condolences to the family.

I did mine yesterday, tried before without success but yesterday it worked. A friend of mine also did his without issues but you have to use Explorer.

I tend to agree sometimes you get a problematic taxi driver but overall they are ok and very cheap compared to most capital cities around the world. Also now that apps like Grab Taxi are here the service is even better.

If you want a service like a London Black were the driver has 'the knowledge' then you have to expect to pay a whole heap more but saying that if you use the Grab Taxi Car services its like a little limo service anyway and still pretty cheap.

The good LED light bulbs do last for ages without any hassle but the market is flooded with cheap Chinese crap. So you get what you pay for and knowing Thailand's purchasing people they will probably go for cheap as Anthony5 says.

Five men in Buriram province are being investigated for violating Thailand's animal welfare act after posting photos on social media of themselves preparing and eating cat meat. Perhaps they had nothing else to eat and the rats were all gone. It doesn't say they tortured the cat, just preparing, so skinning, gutting etc. Whilst it may not be every ones taste, they also eat bugs up there so I guess anything goes.

Some pretty negative comments above. Sure there are SOME losers in BKK but then again they are everywhere, there are also some good guys in BKK too who work hard, run or own their businesses and don't want to go to Cowboy and pick up hookers all the time. Personally I like meeting my multinational expat friends, have a normal conversation and a good laugh.

....And the children should be removed from the parents' custody and placed with a good Christian family and taught some morals and values.

I think religion has enough to answer for, "Good Christian Family" or why not with an Irish Priest, sure they will be safe there.

The IS is all about God and you want to place them with someone else who will preach about God. The Christian Church also has allot of blood on their hands. Much more than the IS has, only difference is the IS brag about it and the Christian Church tries to conceal it. You might want to check some history books about what good Christians have done in the past.

All in the name of God!

Religion needs to be band in public places, people are free to believe what they wish but please don't force it on others!
