since when?

I believe so.

Whatever the immediate results of this political bargaining are, it leaves the Military backed parties in a very tricky situation. How can they carry on in government when the entire population knows they don't have a proper mandate from the people? I would have thought their best hope is to let the new coalition take power and sit back and watch as it disintegrates through infighting. Then a coup? Maybe a coalition government could act together long enough to change the constitution and deal with the Senate?

So they need 376 seats and they have 309 - “Thai Pride Party,” has 71 MPs. The problem appears to be “drugs” (Thai pride legalised cannabis) – surely the other parties can separate cannabis from the other “harder” drugs and do a deal?

so who makes up the law in Thailand?

Spokesman from Nissan this eveing on BBC news. Do you really think it isn't happening? - head in the sand Brexiteer? What do you think is happening? Se if you can answer rather than sealioning.

Nissan too....this was referred to as "project fear" by Brexiteers....the government who can't admit that Brexit was a disaster have for years said they will "not renegotiate" In 2016 the British motor industry was bigger than it had ever been in its history. now it is smaller than at any time since the 1950s. Still waiting to hear of a Brexit benefit.

tonight in the UK the ENTIRE British motor industry is saying that the Brexit trade agreement is threatening their existence and 800,000 jobs

Before Brexit, farage and his cronies mot of whom are 3 goose-steps to the right of Adolf Hitler moned about the EU for 40 years. what makes you think I'm talking to you?

"Nigel Farage wants second referendum if Remain campaign scrapes narrow win" - https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/nigel-farage-wants-second-referendum-7985017

Most certainly do - what do you want a link for?

" there are other things that some people find important . Some people care about other things, rather than just money and wealth and enriching themselves " Really? and what are they???? What has Brexit ever done for you? The answer is trash the UK. Economic Impact: negative economic consequences. leaving the EU has led to trade barriers, increased costs, and uncertainty, which has harmed businesses and investment. Membership in the EU gave the UK with access to the huge single market, allowing free movement of goods, services, capital, and people. Leaving the EU meant the UK has had to negotiate new trade agreements, which have. existing economic relationships. Most of the “new deals” are just rubber stamping or reinstating deals that became invalid on leaving or some are even regarded as disadvantageous (v. Australia trade deal) they are also miniscule compared to the EU trade agreements we had. Trade Disruption: Brexit has disrupted of trade between the UK and the EU. The EU was by far the UK's largest trading partner. Leaving the single market and customs union has led to new tariffs, customs checks, and regulatory barriers delays and confusion at borders. These barriers hinder trade flows, increase costs for businesses, and impact industries such as manufacturing, agriculture, and services. See Vauxhall today! Loss of Influence: Brexit has seriously damaged the influence of the UK on the global stage. As a member of the EU, the UK had a say in shaping EU policies and regulations. Leaving the EU means the UK would no longer has a direct role in decision-making processes that affected its interests. The UK now has far less influence in international affairs and has reduced bargaining power in global trade negotiations. Uncertainty and Instability: Brexit introduced a high level of uncertainty, which is a potential risk to the UK's economy and stability. The process of negotiating new trade deals and establishing new relationships with other countries will take years, leaving businesses and investors in a state of limbo, and in the end will never replace the trade deals we had with the EU. Uncertainty discourages investment, leads to a slowdown in economic growth, and impact job security. This on top of the world’s economic woes. Disintegration of the United Kingdom: Brexit has laid bare the disunity within the United Kingdom itself. The majority of Scotland and Northern Ireland voted to remain in the EU Wales too is now pro EU - leaving against their wishes has increased support for independence. Brexit very possibly will lead to the breakup of the UK, creating political and constitutional challenges. Just because most people want to re-join. Impact on Freedom of Movement: EU membership allowed UK citizens to live, work, and study in other EU member states, and vice versa. Leaving the EU has destroyed these freedoms and created barriers to movement. This negatively affects individuals who benefited from such opportunities and hinder cultural exchange and cooperation. It has destroyed hundreds of small businesses. As yet no-one has a single convincing concrete argument as to why the UK left – unless they wanted to be an international pariah. At least most Brexiteers now admit that it has damaged the economy, (see post above) the NHS (where is that £350 million?) the Unity of the kingdom, the motor industry and attitude to the rest of the world and they try to invoke the "Dunkirk Spirit" - a reaction to a major disaster!? Well at least they've got that right.

"isn't doing much worse"? - is that the best you can do???? Before Brexit UK was on course to be the biggest economy in the EU - now we are back to being the "sick man of Europe" - Brexit has ruined 40 years of progress. It's a pity we didn't spend more on a decent Euro-=style education system or we wouldn't have ended up with so many ill-educated brexiteers. You can blame "outside" force" - like all dictators and paranoids do, but the truth is that Brexit is at the root of all the UK's failings.

Brexiteers seem to have difficulty in realising how wrong they are. Yes! ALL economies around the world have problems but the UK has exacerbated it by between 4 and10% -that's why we are doing so much worse than everyone else. Just ask you friends living the EU.. As I id before they want to blame it on anything but the elephant in the room Brexit. Just check out the crisis at Vauxhall today because of Brexit....look at all the jobs, businesses and major companies that have either left or are facing closure.... Look at the slowing of trade, the hassle for travellers - al of this ON TOP of the world economy. UK has shot itself in the foot.

lot of posters here hiding their ignorance behind cynicism.and cliche. e.g. "heard it all before" "nothing ever changes"

It's not a cost of living crisis - it is a cost of LEAVING

What did he say, then?

UK - is having "enquiries" about the price of eggs, the price of bread and the role of supermarkets - unemployment is rising yet companies can't find staff......like the rest of the world, they blame covid, the Ukraine war, anything but the main cause which is unique to the UK and is entirely their own fault - like Bart Simpson the government just repeats "it wasn't me, I didn't do it!" But they did and it was Brexit!

Prayuth finally may have to justify why he is still PM. This won't go down well nationally or internationally. In the end the military are going to have to explain the constitution they installed that basically quashes any attempt at true democracy. I imagine this will being people out onto the streets again.

This election, whatever the final outcome has shown the stranglehold that the =military and their "allies" have on power. the whole thing now is just a breeding ground for corruption.

Agree that you don't want DCC - but the definition I have is not the same as yours, not local currency but your home currency "Dynamic currency conversion (DCC), and sometimes referred to as cardholder preferred currency (CPC), allows customers to pay for a product or service in a foreign country using their home currency instead of the local currency. " - https://www.forbes.com/advisor/credit-cards/dynamic-currency-conversion/

so - how about the other banks?

It's sad that he has to say this - but I suppose it is necessary as we know he is capable taking power by force.
