Yea but they endorsed it by voting for it and making it 100% legit and so impossible to remove.

Again: I do take on board what you are saying. And I wouldn't have endorsed it myself, but I can imagine Thais thinking 'Well it's just a scrap of paper which can be torn up at the earliest convenience of the next hooligan who decides to be our leader'.

And that it all it is. A crappy scrap of paper which can be ripped up if need be. That swine Prayuth had no trouble balling up and chucking the previous one into the dustbin.

Bad day for Thai people?
Thai people only have themselves to blame as they voted for the current constitution and even voted for this government so no sympathy from me any more.

I feel you, but remember it was a case of 'either vote for this constitution or we will impose our own. And you can forget about any upcoming election'. In short, they were blackmailed and browbeaten into voting for it.

And what "generation" do you belong to ? a very entitled one by the looks of it. It is not necessary for me to know the procedure for claiming free money  I don't want it.    I work hard for my money and resent every penny that I have to pay in order to support those to lazy to do likewise. 

Claiming benefits is a lifestyle choice for many in the UK and it needs to be made as difficult as possible to play the system . If you think otherwise you are living in a parallel universe

I see you know as much about the unemployed as you do on how they claim their benefits.

I bet Boris has a grin on his face and is it beyond belief that he could return ?  He still has big support and I bet the Tory MPs wish they could turn the clock back and give him the confidence vote .

His popularity was down the toilet with both the public and his own party. Even if he did come back, they would have him back out again before you could say 'I followed the ministerial guidelines at all times'. 

The man was so full of sh#t he could have been mistaken for the British coastline.

Totally agree with what you are saying ,   If the rich are not treated good enough and can’t make money they will go elsewhere, the poor don’t employ many people ,  I grew up on a council estate poor 

You developed some major Stockholm syndrome on that council estate of yours...

I would say the UK declaring war on the EU (a united Europe under German rule) is the way forward.

It worked the first two times, so 3rd time lucky!

Well get yourself away to Ukraine if you feel like going to war in Europe. Enjoy!

Just what have the rightards got against us in the lower orders owning flat screen tv's and i phones?

After all, it's just what our controllers at 55 Tufton Street SW1 need us to consume in order that their comfortable lifestyles are perpetuated.

Just as an aside, what TVs are available other than flat screen ones? And how does one go about claiming their lavish dole money without access to the internet?

The grumpy old right wingers on here have a mindset that dates from the time of the Flintstones...

Truss has demonstrated that things can get a lot worse, and it only took her three weeks to do it.

And it took as long 3 weeks only because of the passing of Her Majesty...

They are already on a decent wage , especially considering their skills . Some might say they are milking the temporary inflation rate in an act of greed . Rail Drivers earning double that of nurses and beat patrol police is a joke

Who? Who might say that and how much money would they be on?

Until Labour can present a serious, credible and electable alternative government, gripes about the Tories are just background noise...

Not borrowing billions to give to people who don't need it would be a good start.

It is now plain for all to see that Britain's mortal enemies are not Xi or Putin, but our own government. Tory voters, give yourselves a round of applause.

You might think I meant that the west must respond with a nuke after the first Russian tactical nuke. Of course they wouldn't but they have already promised some kind of more severe response and I think they would definitely meet that. Then it would be in Putin's court. This is very very dangerous.

Yes, I'm afraid it is. But listening to his partial mobilisation speech today, let's remember he said he would take nothing off the table if Russia's sovereignty was breached. It isn't being. The devil is in the detail of his words.

Demented he might be, but who in the world actually thinks NATO would stand idly by if he starts throwing nukes around. Besides, the radioactive fallout is no respector of national borders, his included. And 70% of his people live in European Russia.
