I'm guessing the vocal minority, the Pink haired brigade were causing a public nuisance again. Nobody likes a party pooper. Hope they didn't spend too long in the cells.

The Official Manchester United Thread
JonnyF replied to Jonathan Fairfield's topic in Football forum
And suddenly there was a battle for top 4. I still think Utd will get that 4th place. Liverpool are running out of games and Utd have quite an easy run in against some poor sides. Terrible performance against West Ham though. Almost ten years since they sacked Moyes and you have to wonder what progress has been made. -
He looked thoroughly embarrassed to me, and rightly so. Like a kid sent to the naughty chair in front of his classmates while trying to pretend he finds it funny. Still, he's probably got a bit more material for another book to sell to the Brit haters. On a positive note, Catherine looked incredible as always.

It was a magnificent occasion. Nobody does these occasions quite like the British. Brilliantly supported by the British people.

Bracing for impact: Biden world preps for Hunter Biden fallout
JonnyF replied to onthedarkside's topic in World News
It's all catching up to Joe. You can run, but you can't hide. Eventually the truth will surface. Oh what a tangled web we weave... -
Charles is King of 15 countries - but for how much longer?
JonnyF replied to onthedarkside's topic in World News
All official now. What a great occasion. Implemented perfectly. Wonderfully British. Who'd want to swap that for a President like Macron? Especially when William is the next in line. Did I miss the thread about it here on the World News Forum on Aseannow? -
Wise move. While the cat's away, the mice will play.

Charles Coronation, the people have spoken !
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
A minority of bitter, beer bellied Scottish football supporters. They pulled a similarly classless stunt prior to the Queens funeral. https://www.thenational.scot/sport/22562552.snp-chief-ian-blackford-slams-celtic-fans-sickening-queen-protest-banners/ Hardly representative of "the people". -
Final officer convicted on US state charges over George Floyd death
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I suspect if he had allowed the baying crowd to advance on the officers then there would have more fatalities, possibly the officers and possibly people in the crowds. He was in an impossible position. Damned if he did and damned if he didn't. -
Unhinged Bangkok taxi driver threatens to murder passenger
JonnyF replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
I've encountered quite a few nut jobs over the years. They also seem to be getting extremely fussy about the fares they accept. It's one thing being refused a fare from downtown to Ladprao at rush hour, but a couple of weeks ago I got refused a taxi from Emporium to The Clubhouse on soi 23 at 10am. -
He's barking up the wrong tree. He's normally very astute, but I feel he's got this one very wrong. There are more important issues that require his attention.

Trump’s Next Criminal Charge Is Practically on the Calendar
JonnyF replied to onthedarkside's topic in World News
It's simply political maneuvering. Politically motivated charges, which will be made at a time to make the most impact politically. She's leaked it in advance to get maximum exposure. IMO of course. -
Absolutely. They were trying to stop the car and god knows what went through her mind. She was probably expecting this extremist left wing mob to drag her out of the car and start beating her to within an inch of her life, maybe even beyond that. A perfectly legitimate fear given the behaviour of BLM elsewhere. She should have been given a community award, not community service.

Final officer convicted on US state charges over George Floyd death
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
In Tao's case all he did was hold back the baying crowd, which may have actually prevented a full on riot and more fatalaties. So in my opinion, this is harsh. If he failed to hold them back and fatalaties ensued as a result, he may still have faced manslaughter charges. He was between a rock and a hard place. However, anything less than this would likely lead to BLM/Antifa and other extremist left wing groups burning and looting American cities again so he appears to have to take one for the team.- 64 replies

Debt ceiling: Janet Yellen warns US could hit debt ceiling by 1 June
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The chickens are coming home to roost for Biden and his financial mis-management. If you want to have stupid policies like writing off student debt to buy votes you have to pay for it. So they either have to abolish these stupid policies or raise the debt ceiling. Biden needs votes, so I suspect it will be the latter. Sad times for the USA.
