54 days. What do you expect? Reality is it's up 0.2% from October 2024 (2.6%) and down 0.1% from Dec 2024 (2.9%). This reality of course won't stop your frothing at the mouth hatred of Trump.

Interesting especially when a direct comparison of July 2024 and Feb 2025 is made and indeed the 1st half of 2024 the inflation rate was 3%+.

Hardly a collapse either yet some on here are quick to respond to any downward movement and silent on any signs of recovery.

If the farce of the undemocratically elected (not elected by the people) pseudo senate is seen to support the status quo no action will be taken by the CC. The CC and the EC are the corrupt legal arms of the royalist, military, elites establishment and is there only to protect the former.

Stock market appears to be bouncing back in spite of all the negative messaging by the MNM.

Zelenky's not the problem. He'll negotiate he has no choice. Putin is the problem. He wants an end to the war not a ceasefire and wants most of the territory he's captured.

What I'm not is an idiot. The fact that Russia is steadily moving west and the Kursk salient has collapsed has nothing to do with appeasement. It's reality which is something some on here have seem to have completely lost sight of.

Less than smoking cigarettes.

Just from a quick search the main MSM outlets are not reporting it but it is being reported.

Kursk salient is gone. Troops now surrounded and withdrawing. I said this may happen last week and got the usual vacuous laughing emojis. Nobody had the balls to challenge me though. The only card albeit a small one that Zelensky had has folded. Always was a strategic error and has now proven to be the case.

Back street garages and many vapes containing drugs? Seems your the type who believes what your led to believe. That's a lot of garages making a lot of vapes. 100s of millions of vapes per year would IMO be an underestimate. As for containing drugs well yes there's nicotine but apart from that zero unless they are specifically produced for that purpose. As for the nicotine itself there are varying degrees of nicotine strengths and indeed what's said to be nicotine free. The biggest unknown I guess are the chemicals and flavourings in the juice. As for cigarettes being controlled and taxed that correct. Doesn't make cigs safer than vapes though..

I have no problem with political discourse. It's the lunatic frothing at the mouth at anything and everything Trump does that's irrational and IMHO very disturbing.

Don't know how long it will last. As for flying I doubt they'll be bothered going through screening at the airport but I'd be very discreet about having a puff outside the airport. Thing is though will your vape last until you go. Can't get vapes anywhere as far as I know. As for things getting back to "normal" I very much hope so and hope it happens soon. There's always the chance that this will be permanent until sometime down the track it's legalised. Wouldn't hold my breath on that one.

Still crying I see. Well it's only been 6 weeks. Maybe you'll grow up enough in a couple of years to accept the election result.

Now you're just trolling. Stop it. possession of e-cigarettes in Thailand is illegal I'm hoping your grasp on English is sufficient enough that you can understand this.

Try reading the article. Damn! Some people. Actually never mind I'll make it easy for you. "More compelling is the fact that possession of e-cigarettes in Thailand is illegal in itself, an infraction which could result in imprisonment, fines, or both, with penalties reaching up to 500,000 Thai Baht." Satisfied???????? BTW no one who vapes that I know calls them e-cigarettes. They're called vapes.

The true hypocrisy is making vaping illegal whilst cigarettes are legal. You either make both legal or both illegal.

The brilliance isn't on Zelensky's part. Trump put him in this corner by withdrawing intelligence and aid. Trump forced Zelensky's hand. Now he has to force Putin's hand.

Your comment is spot on. IMHO this is all about getting rid of the opposition (Thailand's good at this) and this crackdown order is coming from very high up to protect the tobacco monopoly interests i.e. profit. As for being illegal it is. Illegal to sell, illegal to purchase, illegal to have and illegal to smoke. Right now if the BIB catch you you're in big strife. Talking with a Thai a couple of hours ago about getting vapes online he said no. "Now very dangerous." I'm really pissed off and this order is being enforced by a non-elected government.

This is exactly what he did and why Ukraine has agreed in principle to a 30 day ceasefire.

Oh dear! Whose got a glass chin then. As for sticking to my usual stuff aka rational thought and supported arguments I will. You I'm sure will keep to your usual stuff. Puerile, petulant replies with emojis. Lots of emojis.

And there you have it. It's not guesswork it's a considered opinion which is something you never display. If you have no opinion as to whether it will happen or not then don't comment on others that do.

Partly agree in that the use is very wide spread and it should be legalized. As for making it so expensive that only the well off can afford vapes I can't agree to this. I do wonder where he got the vape from though as the entire market has been closed down to support and bolster the tobacco monopoly profits. As I've said health has nothing at all to do with this. This is purely a smokescreen.

Will the ceasefire happen? Easy yes or no question. Bet you won't give an answer because you never answer questions just give petulant responses.

I notice the laughing and confused emojis to my above post but what I haven't seen is anyone saying that it won't happen. I say again this ceasefire will happen. Putin will agree to it. If you think this is not the case then grow some balls and say so.
