Weak. "Cancel order" is a suggestion, not an insult. "Nothing is being done" is a statement, not an insult. "Where is the server?" is a question, not an insult. Fake news (a statement) repeated 1000 times does not constitute 1000 insults. You're really scraping the bottom of the barrel with one link behind a paywall and another one repeating "fake news" hundreds of times.

It's behind a paywall.

I can only lead a horse to water...

Let's wait and see. I mean after months of deliberation Starmer has finally worked out what a woman is so with his new found insight let's give him another decade and he might come up with some sensible ideas for the economy. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12341781/Keir-Starmer-finally-accepts-woman-adult-female-Labour-leader-confirms-party-U-turn-gender-self-identification-admits-policy-not-right-way-forward.html

A cop out. The equivalent of "google it". I thought links were required for statements of fact. Thousands? lol.

I said it was alleged. I then provided proof of the allegation. The fact you do not think Rogan is credible is neither here nor there regarding the accuracy of my statement. Don't like Rogan? OK, here's another one for you. A senator. https://www.hawley.senate.gov/following-pelosi-trades-hawley-calls-hearing-banning-insider-trading-congress Here's a definition of alleged as well, since you don't seem to fully understand it.

I have acknowledged that it is alleged. I will wait for the result of the trial before I conclude he is guilty. As you should.

OK here is one. Joe Rogan. https://nypost.com/2022/04/11/joe-rogan-slams-nancy-pelosi-pols-for-insider-trading/

I often criticize him. I have also stated he is an idiot. Even on this thread I have stated he is as bad as Pelosi, who I clearly dislike. The fact that you use such statements to conclude I am a huge fan of Trump is an issue for you to resolve, not me ????.

Why are you asking me? I stated it was alleged. Then I linked to an article where it was alleged. You appear to have more time than me so feel free to investigate if you need more detail.

Please provide links to prove thousands of examples of Trump. Thanks in advance.

Strawman. I am not a Trump supporter. I have even stated on this very thread that I think he and Pelosi are as bad as each other. Try arguing against my actual position, rather than one you have created on my behalf to discredit me. I know it's your go to tactic, but we can all improve even in our advanced years ????.

Yes, as bad as each other. Pelosi isn't exactly the height of maturity. Like a toddler ripping up another kids drawing in art class ????.

As bad as each other, like 2 kids squabbling in the playground. US politics really is in a sad state.

Yes, disclaimers like that are often used for legal reasons.

Yes, the EU's insistence on making trade between EU countries and the UK as problematic as possible certainly harms both sides. However, I was answering a poster who was asking how it harmed the EU side. Hence that is the part of the article that I quoted. I do hope that has cleared up your confusion on the matter.

Indeed, Pelosi's alleged insider trading will hopefully be proven beyond a doubt.

Schadenfreude. Such an ugly thing. Pelosi truly exudes spite and vitriol from every pore. So much so that it is etched across her face for all to see. You'd think the uncanny over-performance of her investments and the vast wealth she accrued during her time as House speaker would have made her happy but maybe it's the knowledge of what she had to do to acquire it that makes her so unhappy? A truly vile individual.

While the background of this alliance is disgraceful, mired in backstabbing and completely undemocratic, my pragmatic side can't help but feel in reality this won't be so bad. 1. Prayut/Prawit finally gone (or at least put on the back row). 2. Pheu Thai in government (my second choice behind MFP). 3. Weed to stay legal. Not perfect by any means, but a long way from catastrophic.

By making it as complicated as possible for those member states to do business with Britain. The EU was slow to realize/admit that this causes problems in BOTH directions. One of many reasons the German economy fell into recession as the UK was such a huge market for them. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/may/25/germany-economy-falls-into-recession-high-prices-take-toll https://www.ft.com/content/913c7e84-fd2d-4cb5-be0c-8cd865f37462 Still, much like the Thai government the EU technocrats care not for the well being of it's members, only that they retain their vice like control at the top, and their noses in the corrupt trough. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63941509

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).
