Someone must have breathed it out onto the packaging at some point, hardly a surprise, in the rest of the world outside certain parts of South East Asia this virus is very, very common and widespread.
Rest of the world?

Yes, from China. If it came from abroad they would have mentioned it.
So China is not as Covid free as they want us to believe...

A bit of offtopic:
- websites could detect your location using about ten different ways, the easiest one is current timezone. No much point to use an Australian IP address if your browser tells "Asia/Bangkok" to the website ????
Till now VPN's/ different IP's were always a solution for geo restricted content. Other IP's always worked. Changing timezones never had any influence.

Etihad has flights, but with transfer, no direct flights.

No, I am tired of the UK and their populism.
In my home country they try not to broadcast television interviews with Trump, because most people will zapp away and continue looking at another channel. This costs money, it's a waste of money for television channels. Less viewers, less income from advertisements.
Same happens now with Johnson. Most people put him on par with Trump. Simply disgusting.
I would really prefer to block the UK completely. Nothing in, nothing out. Cancel all flights, forbid any financial transactions. Let them live on their island and trade with other countries.

But in the short term at least, the City will remain the top financial center of the world
Do you think so? If a company in the financial services industry must choose between the UK as a home market, or the EU at their home market the choice will be simple and fast.

Ha ha, your idea that the UK is the weakest party doesn't quite ring true now.
<a lot of populist talk deleted>
Please look at the FACTS...
Look of the % of UK exports going to the EU -> 43%
Look at the % of EU exports going to the UK -> 6.2%
A complete blockade of trade will be a complete shutdown of the UK economy. 6.2% you can survive, 43% not.
The UK has no cards. They must be even happy that the EU is willing to waste their time talking to them.
The latest rumors I heard about a no-deal Brexit are also bad for the UK. The EU is looking at financial services now performed in London. They want to refuse companies in the financial services from the UK (banks) to do business in the EU, a condition for doing business in the EU will be that they must have their headquarters in the EU. This is probably the end of London as a financial hub.
What will be left of the UK?

Do you trust the WHO ?
Do you trust Dr. Nabarro?Thousands of experts, and they all say something different.
The arguments he uses are also not applicable for most countries.
Tourism in the Caribbean? I couldn't care less.
Poverty levels? Child malnutrition? I see nothing of that in my home country.What I miss in the whole Covid discussion is that our fundamentals are wrong. 7.7 billion people on our earth, that's 6 billion too many.
This year there is Covid, next year there will be something different. We're not getting rid of this. Spreading diseases through overpopulation, our wanderlust. Our overpopulation is destroying the earth. And now we're destroying ourselves too.
Covid is just the beginning ???? ????

On Russian television, they say that the British vaccine could turn people into monkeys. The Russian government denies that they are involved, but it is broadcasted on Russian state television.

Like said before, it has NOTHING to do with the Thai government but with Firefox.
There are 2 screenshots. One is a Firefox warning. But the second screenshot shows that Thailand blocked this page.
Can it be that a provider blocks a page, and another provider does not?

This is exactly why it would be better for both sides to have a deal. Now the French fishermen will lose their jobs because they are not allowed to fish in UK waters, and the UK fishermen will lose their jobs because they cannot sell their fish to the EU anymore.
This could have been the deal, but it was refused by the UK.

Where does your home country rank?
In the top. Well above the UK.
7 minutes ago, BritManToo said:Don't really see how any country in the top 20 could be considered 'weak'.
You are right, not as a country. But what matters is the income of people. I would prefer to live in a country with a $1 million economy and being the only citizen, and not in a country with a $10 million economy that must be shared between hundreds of people.
7 minutes ago, BritManToo said:And if the UK is 'weak', how come it was expected to contribute 25% of the EU funding.
That is Brexit nonsense.

Firefox thinks this website is dangerous. It can be a wrong security certificate, or maybe something else. This has nothing to do with the Thai government.
22 minutes ago, TooBigToFit said:I'm just curious if it is possible for any government to do something that records who is viewing a specific webpage.
Your ISP can see exactly what you are doing online, they can see which websites you visited. And a government can request this data. If you are afraid of that you should use a VPN.

You are right, the UK has the right to refuse. And in return the EU refuses to give the UK the right to sell fish to the UK. So 75% of UK fishermen will lose their job very soon.

I am not sure if you can be proud that the UK economy is bigger than the Luxembourg economy.
Divide the size of the economy by the number of people living in the UK and you will see that 1/3 is missing compared to some other EU countries.
The UK is a weak country, income of people is less than in many EU countries.

5 minutes ago, vogie said:You havn't answered my question, I'll repeat it, "is Macrons insistance on 100% fishing rights to our waters acceptable" yes or no?
I answered your question. It can be part of a deal. Macron asks one thing, and in return the UK fishermen can sell their fish to the EU. Selling to the EU is a favor the UK can get, or not if there is no deal. I really don't see the problem. The UK is independent now, so they have the right to refuse this.
Macron didn't say that he has warships stand-by to let French fishermen fish in UK waters. He just asks politely, and the UK can refuse. So they did. And now the UK fishermen will lose their jobs.

Yes, of course. It's something you can agree with, or not. It can be part of a deal. And if there is no deal it means that the UK fishermen will also lose their jobs.

Same can be said about the UK. 75% of fish caught by UK fisherman goes to the EU. And from what I understand that will be blocked for the full 100%. So 75% of them will be without a job very soon.

5 minutes ago, allane said:Why should the EU negotiate with an ex-member, that voted to leave ? They should let Britain stand outside in the cold for twenty or twenty-five years. Then maybe let them back in, if they ask nicely.
Exactly. Close the tunnel, cancel all flights, nothing in, and nothing out. Let them trade with the US and Australia, because it seems that's the only thing that will make them happy.
I am so tired of the UK.

You can try another VPN. They do the blocking based on IP's. It is possible that another provider with other IP's does work.
