Traffic is great in Bangkok over Songkran, except a couple spots.

Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons – poll
With "appear" being the key word no doubt. Unfortunately, I am no longer able to trust anything that comes out of academia unless it's pure science. Yes, but it is worth noting that they did not ask the public if overall they were happy about Brexit. No, I said it should be one of the criterial used to judge the success of Brexit, you said it was important. I also stated the public's perception was largely driven by press and media, which are controlled by the left, and clearly the left hated/hates Brexit. Because if the public's perception is "wrong", steps might/should be taken to explain the impact of the program better. That's a quick look. Unless I really trusted the source, it would take me a lot longer to determine the honesty of a study. I did not read them, but it has been a good long time since I read anything political out of academia that I felt was intellectually honest, much less unbiased.

You are negotiating loan applications and extensions with the bank manager on a daily basis?

Why indeed? It's not like it's the government surveying the public in an honest effort to determine what people think. It's someone with an agenda, funding a survey and publishing it. Likely in an effort to drive public opinion. How does my previous paragraph suggest otherwise? No, I did not dismiss them. But neither would I take a quick look at a couple reports and think I know something. Would you? That's fair. We agree.

We screwed up - leaving Thailand on the 18th for the US but forgot to make a Thai passport for our 2 year old
Is that a trick question? I would have to have read at least some of it to respond as I did, yes? Thanks Now? 20 I think he was over 15.

I do not doubt that. I knew the reports concluded that Brexit has had a net negative effect just by the fact that you linked to them. Yes, Polling is the best way I know of to determine public perception. I never meant to imply it was not.

Something has changed? My boy did.

That the public's perception of how successful something as complex as Brexit is largely unrelate to how successful it actually is. One of, sure. Sure, but you said: "...Note: I am suggesting that it is the only criterion...". Did you want to want to walk that back?

I said it would last 30 days as proposed. I did not say the country would shut down and everyone would get a month off and that there would be a month long water fight.

So, you don't know. I don't either, but we're to assume a polling of the general public is a good way to measure it.

Not at all It would depend on the act. So, if you took all the money from the top 10% and gave it to the bottom 90%, a poll showing wide public support would prove it was a successful program?

This is 2024. You have to walk to the bank every day in your business suit? For what? You don't have any staff?
-

Banks are closed on Songkran, try again.

Songkran 2024
You walk to work in a suit? How far? There are only three days of holiday, everyone has to go back to work after that.

Songkran 2024
That's hilarious. Where might you be walking, while wearing your business suit and carrying a laptop? If I were in a suit going "somewhere important", I would drive.

The cost, benefits, and implication of cash handout programs
Give a man a fish, and he'll be back tomorrow for another, and after a while, you owe him the fish every day, and woe unto you if he doesn't get it. After a while, he tires of fish...

Risk of bursting washing machine water hose?
Most cheap, s-grade plastic. Plenty of plastics do fine in the sun.

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
I think the MG-HS will be at the April motor show on the new gen-two platform, so they need to blow the gen-ones out.

Homosexual TV shows, movies
Another well thought out response from the left. That's what they teach in graduate school, yes?
