It's a shame for Labour the election isn't today. There's plenty of time for them to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Again...

Neither could I. Until I saw the alternative.

That's a pretty good price given the price of other 400cc bikes on the market. I actually like the look of it even though retros aren't my thing. I do believe it is a branding exercise though. This is basically a Bajaj bike with Triumph styling and logos on it. It does seem to be an excellent fit and finish though... It would make a good city bike/commuter.

I would rent there for a few months to see if you like the area. I have been going to Rayong for 15 years (and actually considered buying a condo there as well) but my visits are only for 2-3 days at a time. Any longer than that is a bit boring, there really isn't that much to do there except go to the beach which soon gets old after a few days. As for the investment side, unless you plan to live in it then I would say it is a poor investment. You won't get much in rent and by the time you've paid the juristic fees, someone to manage/clean it then you won't be getting much every month and it will be a load of hassle. It's unlikely to increase much in value as Thais prefer to buy new and many of the buildings are not well managed/maintained. I decided not to buy and now just stay in hotels when I visit and have the money invested elsewhere instead. I'm not part of the "don't buy in Thailand" brigade as I own a condo in Bangkok it's just I think you need to live in it for it to be a worthwhile investment (I've recouped about 60% of the purchase price in saved rent so far but the unit hasn't increased in value).

As soon as I saw this opening line (and where the article came from, the leftist BBC) it was obvious that this was going to be a biased anti Trump opinion piece. They really should do better .

Ridiculous. Why not just go the whole hog and let Biden appoint the judge? Or better yet, appoint Biden AS the judge. I mean, they really couldn't get any more obvious at this point. What an embarrassment for the US. They really have lost all moral authority, the fact they still feel they have the right to comment on other nations legal systems is comical at this point. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/us-concerned-about-developments-legal-system-after-thailand-election-2023-07-17/

Don't waste your time Rishi. Just sit back, roll a fat one and wait for Labour to implode just in time for the next election, like they always do. The Labour Party - Specialists in failure.

They just can't help themselves, acting like a woman scorned even when it is at the expense of it's own member states. They don't really care about the states themselves, only in maintaining power with an ever tightening grip over them in the quest for a fedarlized Europe. Thank God we left.

The only reason it's higher than at home is because Americans are subject to more coverage of his failings. It's a bit like trying to prove how popular you are by saying people who don't know me like me more than those who do ????.

Couldn't have said it better myself. It's good to see the American people finally waking up to the charade that is the Biden clan. His term has been incredibly damaging to the reputation of the United States overseas.

You're quite the conspiracy theorist aren't you ????. I'm not sure how you think Farage convinced the bank to write the scathing dossier on him and then not only breach his client confidentiality but also close his account, but don't let something like logic stand in your way... Nope, rest assured, Coutts/NatWest brought this all on themselves with their political posturing and pathetic virtue signaling. Go Woke. Go Broke.

Yep. It's not the 80's any more. Maybe time to put away that Proclaimers LP and swing a leg into 2023.

He is only just starting. He already brought the UK out of the corrupt EU. He is going after the politically biased lefty virtue signalling banks now. With success again. Store up that hate. Hold onto that anger. You're going to need it.

I wasn't aware Farage was a British MP. I wasn't aware Farage represents all Brexiteers. He is entitled to his opinion as any private citizen is. On this issue I disagree with him. Fortunately the British people made it a moot point. It was a huge victory which was implemented. A victory for Democracy against left wing big state, big government, federalist authoritarianism. Nice one Nige...

Great news for responsible savers. Interest rates have been way too low for far too long. Good to see some fiscal responsibility.

Remainers are not renowned for their respect of Democratic processes and principles? Calling people they disagree with Bigots? Yes Respecting votes? Not so much

I am not aware of any. After all the drama they seem to have acknowledged it's just a bit of paperwork.

Taking rules? ???? We are voluntarily using their certification until we don't want to any more. Plain and simple. Must really burn to see the UK economy growing while Germany's stagnates.

Taking the bits we want, ditching the bits we don't want. #bestofbothworlds

Voluntarily using their certification until we don't want to any more. Doing what we want, when we want. #wedowhatwewant

Sunak's diplomatic way of saying "We'll remove it when we're good and ready because we do what we want with your certification".

Exactly. We'll take the bits we want. Just like they said we couldn't.

Yep, despite leaving the EU we outperformed Germany. Cliff edge? lol. #therewasnocliffedge

They postponed it - whoopydoo. A sensible move IMO, it's not a priority. We'll do it when we want. Why? Because we can. The British do what we want, when we want. No more being told what to do by the failing corrupt federalist EU #thankgodweleft

I thought the EU said we couldn't just pick the parts we wanted. Seems like we can after all. More Remainer lies being exposed. #therewasnocliffedge
