Meloni is kind of to the right on Italian politics. How will she feel about Thai migrants taking jobs and not paying taxes?

Mueang Thong Thani was supposed to be an important satellite town but we rarely hear of it now. It does sound like an act of desperation to to put lipstick on the pig at this late time.

I do hope the court will allow for the fact her husband was a serial philanderer and have some pity on her. There just comes a breaking point in people's lives sometimes.

The Labour Party under Blair was more centrist than it once was, and Starmer is more like "Conservative Mild" rather than left of the left wing of Corbyn. No one in Britain seems to expect much from Labour - they just look more attractive that the Tories.

This survey or review is appreciated. I hope the photos do represent the burgers you will get. Anyway, well done.

Who would be stupid enough to provide photo ID to a porn site?

Someone may wish to clarify - does he have free security provided in the US, a country with a lot more guns that the UK?

Of course, the US would never develop anti satellite weapons. Never.

Airlines all recommend keeping seat belts fastened when seated. Clearly many did not.

While the media can't investigate every Senate applicant, telling the public which ones are linked to the military, have criminal records etc., would allow the public to make its voice heard, whether they can vote or not

Why does this make no sense? He collected garbage for recycling. How he came to owe half a mill is also a surprise

Send like a national security issue. Thank goodness they were caught before violence occurred.

Not sure why the article sparked what appears to be racism but the law was passed and it seems one country broke the law more than others.

Must admit to some sympathy that girls need to do this work due to low education and no social safety net. I realize the temptation of earning more than a receptionist or secretary is an incentive, but I put it down to the need to survive.

Well, they tried to ban alcohol in the US with the 18th constitutional amendment. As a result, crime rose throughout that period, known as Prohibition. Several European nations also introduced prohibition but due to Hollywood, the American version is more famous. After that failure they had to repeal it using the Twenty-first Amendment. It is the only Constitutional amendment ever repealed (that I know of). People use alcohol to help them relax and lower inhibitions, which explains a lot of wild behavior by normally shy Thais.

No worse than shooting kids with an AR-15 I suppose.

More support is needed and a plan to implement it

So sad to read all the negative comments. There are no real "politics" behind education. It is mainly bureaucrats stealing what budget they can and the top people sending their kids to America so that they will have a good job on their return. The rural teachers I work with want to give a better education to their students but their budget won't pay for diddly squat. We installed solar panels because they aren't allowed an electricity connection (the school is on military land, don't ask). They had ministry mandated PCs but no electricity! We have built a library and filled it with science books and cartoons that kid like because kids want to read. It isn't that all teachers don't want to educate - they just don't all have the needed resources.

If Dozy Don wins the presidency, many will have to sit back and accept. For other Western countries it might mean the end of international friendship. He is planning a lot of things "on day one" that will hurt people in the long term. Vote for him and see what happens.

Because I doubt they walked up to him without any provocation or reason and stabbed him.

Funny how this came to be so long after the bribery was discovered.

This does sound suspicious. I would hope the female officer wore gloves so that no nails were used.

It has been usual for the government to provide the lowest quality of rice to prisons. Perhaps the canteen in Parliament should consider this as they have several convicts.

So he could lose his pension? Naah...

So bad weather will hit the north south, east and west. Thanks.
