Pattaya Crackdown: Suspects Nabbed in Late-Night Vape Bust
mikeymike100 replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
You can go to any beer bar and see and smell usually someone using a 'vape'/electronic cigarette, Out in the open and nobody seemingly cares. Essentially there is evidence to suggest vaping is less dangerous than the real thing. Compared directly, vaping exposes you to fewer and lower levels of harmful substances than smoking, making it a less damaging option for adults looking to switch. The NHS and CDC acknowledge it can help smokers quit, which is a net health win if it replaces cigarettes entirely. But if you’re not already a smoker, starting to vape isn’t “healthy”—it’s just less bad than picking up a pack of Marlboros. The best health move is avoiding both. You can legally buy cigarettes, but not E-cigarettes?? How odd! -
You absolutely correct, it makes sense since airlines charge for excess baggage, cos the aircraft burns more fuel, cos of the extra weight, same should go for obese people. Anyone over a certain weight should have to pay extra!

"As trans and non-binary people increasingly require access to midwifery services, this paper proposes an alternative professional title that is inclusive and liberates midwives from continuously reinscribing the sex/gender binary in their nomenclature,” they write." Total madness, the UK is cooked! —due to its focus on pregnancy and childbirth, traditionally seen as female domains—there’s no legal or professional barrier preventing men from becoming midwives in most places today. The term "midwife" itself, from Old English "mid" (with) and "wif" (woman), refers to the role of being "with the woman" during birth, not the gender of the practitioner.

Migrants ‘treated badly by press’, fairness handbook tells judges
mikeymike100 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
"Robert Jenrick, the shadow justice secretary, has criticized the guide, calling it a sign of a politically influenced judiciary. “This guidance is another concerning example of the politicisation of the judiciary. Sentencing decisions should be made on the facts of the case, not on activist guidelines which are pro-open borders. Illegal migrants and asylum seekers who break the law should not be treated any less robustly than a British citizen, otherwise we have a two-tier system.” Jenrick is absolutely correct, everyone should be treated by the judiciary equally, irrespective of demographics or religion! -

Trump Eyes Rarely Used Alien Enemies Act for Deportation Plans
mikeymike100 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
"Trump announced on Saturday that he had signed a proclamation declaring that the Tren de Aragua gang was "conducting irregular warfare" against the US and he would deport its members under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798. That evening, US District Judge James Boasberg in Washington DC ordered a 14-day halt to deportations covered by Trump's proclamation, pending further legal arguments. After lawyers told him that planes with deportees had already taken off, Judge Boasberg gave a verbal order for the flights to turn back, US media reported, although that directive did not form part of his written ruling. https://www.yahoo.com/news/us-deports-hundreds-venezuelans-despite-140611527.html So they have already landed in El Salvador...good riddance!!! -
Police Raid Soi Nana, Arrest Foreign Women for Suspected Prostitution

Surely its about working illegally as a prostitute?? -
The U.S. makes a sparkling wine identical to Champagne. Winemakers in regions like California, Oregon, or New York can use the same grapes, méthode champenoise, and meticulous aging processes to create a product indistinguishable in quality or taste. Places like Napa Valley have climates and soils that can rival Champagne’s terroir, and producers like Schramsberg or Domaine Carneros craft high-end sparkling wines that compete with the French stuff blind-tasting-wise. But legally, they’d call it "sparkling wine" or something like "Methode Champenoise Sparkling Wine" unless they’re grandfathered in.

Biden did when was the President......on February 28, 2024, Biden’s physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, released a six-page memo after his annual physical, stating Biden was a “healthy, active, robust 81-year-old male” fit to execute presidential duties. This report detailed his conditions—like non-valvular atrial fibrillation and sleep apnea (treated with a CPAP machine)—but found no new major concerns. Earlier, in November 2021, another physical summary was shared, noting similar health details and a lesion removal. There is no mention of cognitive decline you will notice. Although of course we now know he was practically a vegetable.

What a fool, was he half asleep trying to get 38Kg of the stuff thru security, maybe 10 years in a Thai prison will wake him up? Even if he got the stuff to the UK, I am pretty sure the sniffer dogs they have there would have caught him out! -

The Erosion of Equality in British Justice Where Race Plays a Role
mikeymike100 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
"In effect, these guidelines suggest that minority groups should receive more lenient treatment than white defendants, particularly white men. The provisions related to slavery and trafficking also open the door for legal arguments that could allow illegal immigrants to avoid prosecution altogether. " So it is not hidden anymore its out in the open a 2 tier justice system. So not only has free speech disappeared in the UK, actual justice itself is disappearing. So the statue on the 'Old Bailey' will be torn down, no doubt Lady Justice. a symbolic figure rooted in ancient mythology, representing fairness and impartiality in the legal system. The scales she holds—usually balanced—stand for weighing evidence objectively, without tipping toward bias or favor. She’s typically blindfolded too, showing justice should be blind to wealth, race, or status, though older versions sometimes skip the blindfold.
