  1. I think with traditional Songkran this would be a good idea.

     

    However, with the new version, the wasting of water, the carnage on the roads, dirty water being thrown aggressively, drunken behaviour etc. I don't think it would really work.

     

    I suspect it will mostly be banned this year again anyway. Especially if the Chinese cause another wave by releasing their infected on Thailand as expected.

    BREXIT, that ‘great British victory’ the ‘victors’ don’t like talking about.

     

     

    We're not still talking about our women winning Euro 2022 either.

     

    Or our men winning the 2022 T20 cricket world cup.

     

    It's called being humble in victory. It's a shame the losers can't be gracious in defeat, then we wouldn't still have to listen to them still whining years after the event.

    It's always a mark of weakness when someone makes a comment on a reply not yet given.

    I got some exciting news for you. This isn't a court of law. No one's on trial here. But there are rules. And here's one specifically posted for this forum:

    "Any alleged factual claims must be supported by a valid link to an approved credible source."

    Can  you support your claim with a valid link to an approved credible source?

    I thought....Nah I'll leave it to the likes of you to indulge in that class of empty rhetoric.

     

    You’re giving yourself way too much credit, that news wasn’t very exciting at all.

     

    If you have proof of his guilt, post links.

    I think that you are a Brit who lives and works in Thailand?

     

    If so, you are the living embodiment of globalisation and imo it's unfair if the rest of the world are laughing at you for living this woke, white, middle class Liberal fantasy of yours.

    Yes I work here for a multinational that has invested heavily in Thailand, benefitting thousands of local people.

     

    We all know the difference between simple economic cooperation between nation states and the broader aims of globalization in terms of cultural diversification and the eradication of borders and nation states.

    I agree with the first sentence (ending with the explanation mark).

     

    Trading openly with minimum tariffs with the rest of the world, and Globalization are 2 very different things as I'm sure you are aware.

    Really? So only liberals use the products manufactured abroad? That doesn't leave a lot of automobiles for Coservative Britons to choose from. And the array of choices is shrinking. Or maybe you're reporting from an alternative universe?

    I think you need to learn a bit more about globalization.

     

    Either that, or stop being disingenuous.

    Note to Brexiteers.

     

    You haven’t put a stop

    to globalization.

     

    You’ve simply chosen to be its vassal.

    Globalization is a fantasy for middle class, white "Liberals" (Liberal in the Woke sense of the word, not the classic sense).

     

    The rest of the world laughs at it. Rightly so.

    The OP is a post from GB news, they need to be a tad parochial in their coverage in order not to confuse their target audience. 
     

     

    As I said, interesting that such a headline would be selected for the OP given the fact that the ban applies to all EU countries, plus Canada, US, Japan and Australia (and the UK).

     

    I will forgive your snide comments towards GB News and it's viewership, given their political leanings and rapidly growing success.
