There is no such a thing as a budget meal at Hooters.

I wasn't impressed by their food either.

Did anything impress you there.

So back to charcoal for cooking then that will be banned for using forest fuel and causing Global Warming both in production of it and use.

Carefully planned PR coup by Trump's team. Do you think they walked down that slope by chance?

Careful talking about slopes.....you know what happened to topGear.

The law of registry of the plane is generally the law that applies.  The police will requested by the captain remove the person.  whether he is charged depends on the law of the country and whether no additional offences such as assulting police occur.

the metric system has little weight....measured in either stones or kilograms on wwhether brexit can be reversed which is the form topic.

It seems we have got several furlongs off course.

Of course, the last part does say "so long as that Act remains in force, the EU Treaties, EU legislation and the interpretations placed on these instruments by the Court of Justice are direct sources of UK law."

 

Sources of UK law; to become UK law it still has to be approved by Parliament.

No.....at present it has to be specificaly rejected by Parliament to stop it  applying.

 In which court case did any judgement say that the EU makes UK law?

 

If you are referring to the recent case brought by Gina Miller et al, the judgement of the Supreme Court was that the UK Parliament makes UK law!

61. In one sense, of course, it can be said that the 1972 Act is the source of EU law, in that, without that Act, EU law would have no domestic status. But in a more fundamental sense and, we consider, a more realistic sense, where EU law applies in the United Kingdom, it is the EU institutions which are the relevant source of that law. The legislative institutions of the EU can create or abrogate rules of law which will then apply domestically, without the specific sanction of any UK institution. It is true that the UK government and UK-elected members of the European Parliament participate in the EU legislative processes and can influence their outcome, but that does not diminish the point. Further, in the many areas of EU competence which are subject to majority decision, the approval of the United Kingdom is not required for its legislation to take effect domestically. It is also true that EU law enjoys its automatic and overriding effect only by virtue of the 1972 Act, and thus only while it remains in force. That point simply reflects the fact that Parliament was and remains sovereign: so, no new source of law could come into existence without Parliamentary sanction - and without being susceptible to being abrogated by Parliament. However, that in no way undermines our view that it is unrealistic to deny that, so long as that Act remains in force, the EU Treaties, EU legislation and the interpretations placed on these instruments by the Court of Justice are direct sources of UK law.

With the margin being a bit over the half it shows that people are not too concerned either way.  In which case it is quite OK to have the Politicians act on it.  If the vote had been say 30% for I would say it would be wrong for the politicians to act as obviously there is strong feeling.

I fully agree that those in transit at the time of signing and a reasonable time after should be allowed entry if otherwise qualified.

I f as we are told here visas are not a guarantee of entry it is reasonable to apply a restriction to them.....but I would consider only allowing entry during a very short period  say the next two weeks on these and subjecting them to scrutiny on or before arival.

I've got no problem with that, as long as it's done under the valid process of the political system enshrined in your founding documents.

 

The bigger question is, "Is the UK a representative democracy, or a democracy by referendum?"  The answer to that question dwarfs the Brexit issue.

 

If Parliament approves it, that bigger question goes away.   If they don't- and Brexit gets pushed through anyway- get ready for a whole bunch of referendums pushed forward by every group with a cause and an internet petition.

I rhink a more important question came out in the court case.  It is who makes UK law.....and the High Court said it was the EU.  Not something for a country to be proud of and one I am sure not many of those who supported the Common Market expected.

You don't have to condone overstay to feel sorry for the predicament that this person is in. And we have to remember that there are two persons who did nothing wrong here but who are deeply affected, named they child and the father.

 

It does seem more than harsh that a family should suffer so badly because one broke some administrative rules. Blacklisting in other countries is usually reserved for criminals of the highest order.

Actually many other countries apply blacklisting for overstays,  the difference is that in most of the other countries there is some form of appeal mechanism through the courts which will look at reasons and often adjust the period.

Quite franky I could not care whether the guy was white black or purple.  He is a person and has rights and these were  abused.

Police who act outside the law bring disrespect to themselves their organisation and their country.

I wonder why so many despotic counties consider themselves the bastions of freedom.

Or does it really know where the enemy lies.

Mandate 12[edit]

The final mandate, On protecting children, the elderly and the handicapped, issued 28 January 1942, consisted of two items:

1. "In public places or roads, people should assist and protect children, the elderly, or the handicapped."
2. "Whoever follows item 1 is considered a cultured person deserving of the respect of the Thai people."^[13]

Does the inverse apply?

It has been said Thailand has no rule for disability.  Wrong it has.

It has been said budget carriers do not need to support disability ..wrong.

It has been said there is no law for disability of airlines...wrong if we are talking about IATA carriers.

Please IATA throw that red flag.

ICAO too.

What absolute nonsense, I am very disabled and I find the Thai people far more caring than any others, that I have come across. Yesterday I used the special toilet for disabled people in a petrol station. It was spotlessly clean and had state-of-the-art toilet with electronic douche and drying. I have never seen anything like this even even in a hotel or other place. Some years back when I travelled on the skytrain it's always a Thai that gets up to give me his seat, seldom a farang. I could go on and on. My elderly mother some years back visited me in Thailand and she commented on how wonderful the Thai people for helping the elderly.

So I come the conclusion that your post is just another ignorant Thai bashing one.

I agree about many thai people being considerate and helpful

The fancy toilet you used was probably in a PTT station.  Government organisation ordered to provide them in the past.

This act probably cost the world more lives than BinLladen  ever did by bringing health services into disrepute and making countries reject health services by NGOs

They do have escape hammers...under the driver seat for when passengers try to escape.
