PS; and also people like you who support the idiot!

If you had rid of him from the forum you'd have to find someone else to castigate😁

Totally untrue!

The only things you love are your self and the ludicrous outpourings you inflict on AN!

You and others are reading his outpourings and commenting on them,whether you agree with him or not he's giving you something else to think about😊

According to the dictionary an idiot is a stupid person, for example:I feel like an idiot who swallowed every lie I was told,so does this apply to your post?

Where I live I would say that April was one of the coldest and wettest months on record,unfortunately that won't fit the climate change/global warming 'agenda'

The poor child is the victim in this,I can't see how old she is but the trauma she will have faced won't have done her brain any good,it will take her a long time to get over this abuse if she ever does.

Changing oil in a diesel engine has little effect on the pollution created by that engine.    Changing the air filter will most of the time solve the problem of excessive black smoke.   

Or is it the injectors need cleaning? How about servicing the vehicle properly.

I receive my polling card,in with it are all the instructions for voting as well as accepted forms of ID,those who drive and have a plastic driving licence,a blue badge,a passport,a bus pass and if you don't have any photo ID you can apply for a free voter document, so where is the problem?

A certain person seems to like being argumentative😀

It's not just the US,how many countries have people in power who really know their job and are doing it for the good of their subjects,it seems as though with power comes greed and then corruption

As case of pan calling kettle black?

As for the students protesting in America and the ongoing protests in the UK,I wonder how many of them actually know and fully understand what they are protesting about.

    Maybe I am just cynical , buy maybe Pratchaya couldn't find anyone willing to work in his restaurant and so offered the job to a desperate person  . Pratchaya may have just been helping himself, rather than helping other people 

Or he was maybe being altruistic

What decision? What did the people of Scotland vote for?

 

 

The people of Scotland voted against becoming an independent country by 55% to 45%,in other words more than half of those who voted know which side their bread's buttered on.

They do - you either choose not to accept it or you can't see the connection between the UK government's Better Together campaign and... the UK government.

We can all look for links to give us the answer we want including you,the barnett formula should mean that the people of Scotland are better off than the English so why aren't they?The amount of people dying from misuse of drugs in Scotland is the highest in Europe per head of population.The SNP have been in power for 17 years and those that have been in power should hang their heads in shame,they have failed the people,the schools and the hospitals on a fanatical,flawed ideal.

It seems as though the UK police force/farce haven't got leaders with backbones,their so called leaders prefer to go for easy targets and for some reason best known to themselves prefer to side with law breakers rather than enforce the law,those police that do their job properly get disillusioned when the useless CPS then decide to drop cases for what seems to be trivial reasons.

The answers will all depend on how the question(s) is (are) phrased.

Entertained by a president who lies every day, is a misogynist, cheats on his wife, etc. Seriously?

 

Shows why America is in such bad shape

I can't decide whether your posts are written very tongue in cheek or if you believe everything you've written.

I could name an ex PM who also fits the description above,I think you'll find that if you dug deep enough you'd be able to find plenty of dirt on the majority of those in power,there's an old saying 'power tends to corrupt,and absolute power corrupts absolutely' which tells you all you need to know about the state of the world,it's not just America.

All this wouldn't be an issue if a shady person like Trump wouldn't run for president and obviously if nobody would vote for such a person.

 

As far as I know another issue is that legally a person could be at the same time the president, a convicted criminal, and in jail. It seems there is no law that a convicted criminal, especially someone who is in jail, can't be president.

And can we really blame the lawmakers that there is no such law? Who would ever have thought that someone like that would run for president and that someone would elect him. Until a few years ago that was unthinkable.

 

All above has nothing to do with the actual politics or Biden. As far as I am concerned Americans should be able to vote for anybody leftwing up to right wing, whatever wing. They should be able to vote for young and old and all that. But a criminal? And a serial liar? What a stupid idea! 

What happened to innocent until proven guilty? As I'm not an American it doesn't matter to me but as I said in an earlier post to be a politician they first need to learn to lie,then there are 3 kinds of lies - lies,damn lies and statistics and I think if those of you who are rooting for dozy Biden opened their eyes and did some research they might find that Biden also has feet of clay.

Hard to believe anything Trump says. World's biggest liar

He's a politician just like dozy Biden,I reckon you'd have a job finding an honest politician the world over,as a friend of mine says 'if a politician is talking the chances are he's lying',we are told what politicians want us to believe,the truth doesn't come in to it,after all 'repeat a lie often enough and it becomes truth' and to be a 'good' politician first learn to lie.

All airlines charge for everything. These airlines you pay for the flight and checked luggage is paid extra for. Other airlines you pay for the flight and !luggage fees are included.

I agree,what I was complaining about was the fact that our water bottles were taken off us AFTER check in,Air Asia is the ONLY airline (and the most uncomfortable)that I have had the misfortune to travel with that have had the audacity to do that and then not provide free water on a long haul flight,needless to say we won't be travelling with them again.

So does Air Asia as we found out when taking a flight to Oz,bottled water bought after check in was taken off us,they then tried selling us water on the flight,on principle we refused!

More independent, peer-reviewed research that COVID vaccinations help reduce the transmission of the virus in the months following vaccination, even though they don't block it entirely:

 

Infectiousness of SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections and reinfections during the Omicron wave

 

Published: 02 January 2023

 

"Analyzing SARS-CoV-2 surveillance data from December 2021 to May 2022 across 35 California state prisons with a predominately male population, we estimate that unvaccinated Omicron cases had a 36% (95% confidence interval (CI): 31–42%) risk of transmitting infection to close contacts, as compared to a 28% (25–31%) risk among vaccinated cases.

 

In adjusted analyses, we estimated that any vaccination, prior infection alone and both vaccination and prior infection reduced an index case’s risk of transmitting infection by 22% (6–36%), 23% (3–39%) and 40% (20–55%), respectively. Receipt of booster doses and more recent vaccination further reduced infectiousness among vaccinated cases.

 

These findings suggest that, although vaccinated and/or previously infected individuals remain highly infectious upon SARS-CoV-2 infection in this prison setting, their infectiousness is reduced compared to individuals without any history of vaccination or infection. This study underscores benefit of vaccination to reduce, but not eliminate, transmission."

With any subject we can all find arguments to suit our way of thinking and there will always be so called 'experts' (often getting paid to suit an agenda)who will push there ideals be it brexit,covid,climate change etc
