It will be a shame to see it go. I never really liked it from the get go and it was badly signed to even find it but it's not good news that it might fail.

I am simply stating facts, and i am the last person to be called a Cheap Charlie. I spend more than 3 average retirees do in bars.

Don't like it?  don't go!  it's all market forces and the bars are packed when I go. The day I worry over paying 150 for a large beer in a bar full of gorgeous girls is the day I know all that time spent on my successful career was worthless.

Im just not "happy" about paying a 200 % mark-up on beer prices .

When , a few years ago , they were charging 80-90 Bart for a large Chang 

I would quite happily spend a 1000 Baht for a night out

These days , two beers and thats it 

Oh no you had to pay 3 GBP for a large beer?  you are paying for the company, seats, rent, electric, TV and all the rest.  Enjoy 7/11 you won't be missed   ????  

"indicated he sees a public role for himself after the election"

What a surprise!  how about 'Minister for Timekeeping'?  

They have never delayed before so we should believe him right?

I believe you have to be 65.

 

Have you actually made an application ?

You are mixing up state pension and NHS pension.  All the paperwork has been completed for my NHS pension and a letter received stating the amounts to be paid. Nothing received so far and wondering if anyone else has had the same thing.

I did say in the title 'UK NHS Pension Holders only'. Nothing to do with the state pension due at 65.

The number of proven false sexual assault claims is around 2%.

 

Yep that is 2%. 

That's within the legal system and you seek to deflect. This would not get past ANY prosecutor and it didn't get past the lady asking the questions and it won't get past the FBI.

Yep that's outside of that stat alright.

While Trump is correct that it is scary to be falsely accused, in this case, I believe Kavanaugh is guilty of a drunken sexual assault. His memory may be hazy, but that does not make him a falsely accused man.

'You believe' means what?  no date, no time, don't know how she got there, don't know how she left but 'beach friends' told her to pursue it. Give me a break.  

She got paid hand it over!

Are you receiving a UK NHS pension?  were there any issues?  It's been over a month now since I reached 60 and no lump sum or monthly arrears payment.  I've emailed but was wondering if this is normal?

Landlords tree, he cuts it without discussion,  you move.

Great Thai politics.

 

This family first supported by Thaksin and his PTP and now by the junta are corrupt mercenaries. It shows how dirty Thai politics are they don't care one bit for honesty.. just for votes.  Thai politics is a lost cause when they keep people like this.

 

Families who have been convicted like this for corruption should never again be eligible for public positions unfortunately they are.

Like most of your post and agree but what's this 'but... but... but...Thaksin' stuff?  Thaksin was an enemy of this family. You just can't help yourself.

100 million?  no problem!  we have tons 'good ole Dad'

Ammart 1  Thai people  0   (again)

Then they'd have been vilified for not respecting Ford's request for confidentiality, so no - they couldn't have.

And who leaked it?  you can't be that naive it was PLANNED.

Anyway another FBI investigation and if it turns up nothing?  will you accept that?  will the Dems shut up?  or yet another tactic to get to mid-terms??? take the judiciary OUT OF politics, set a term of 10 years (no reselection) and stop the circuses.

The farang should be ashamed too. Won't last long and she'll be out and about.

It's probably a commentary on coming to steal back democracy?

Show at least a modicum of respect for those that perished?  'Champ'? no respect

I've had various FBI backround checks for one security clearance or another. Doesn't seem too great a burden to impose on a would be Supreme Court justice.

That is true and would be a great idea if they had not hidden this to play their political games. 45 days or so ago "FBI report" sound right and Im sure most would have supported it. Now?  just a delaying tactic.

Pro choice, and pro-equal rights ARE big D Democratic policies.

 

Pro-marijuana, anti-corporate, and eliminating the electoral college are not.

 

So "many" has now become "two".

 

Your past doesn't interest me in the least and is about the same quality of evidence as Kavanaugh's calendar.

 

Also wouldn't a staunch "equal-rights" supporter want a full FBI investigation to prevent the possibility of putting a tainted judge on the Supreme Court?

You are so wrong there buddy. But no point flogging a dead horse with a closed mind. Have a nice day we agree to disagree.

Absurdly low sentence but he made a stupid decision over a stupid activity. He'll be out in less than half 10 years his career ruined.
