I followed this appalling case, and it is another example of children being let down by social services; they were first deemed to be at risk in 2018, although the abuse went back to 2012, and continued long after they were first deemed to be at risk.  Hopefully these scumbags will receive some proper Glaswegian retribution in prison, and fair play to the Judge for handing down lengthy sentences.  However, what disturbs me with yourself, is your attempt to use this to deflect from the thousands of rapes and sexual exploitations carried out by the Pakistani rape gangs; you even go as far as to dishonestly claim that it is no longer happening and is merely historic (as if that makes it okay)  So, what is your reason for continually trying to deflect, diminish and dismiss the magnitude of the continuing Pakistani rape gangs abuse,  because I find your actions really perverse ??</description><pubDate>Wed, 20 May 2026 23:42:55 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Tourist Uses Thai Rider to Pass Phuket Checkpoint</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1394966-tourist-uses-thai-rider-to-pass-phuket-checkpoint/?do=findComment&comment=20515825]]></link><description>My neighbour often got a WIN driver to ride his bike home and another to follow to bring him back into town.</description><pubDate>Wed, 20 May 2026 23:39:25 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>What Movies or TV shows are you watching (2026)</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1383422-what-movies-or-tv-shows-are-you-watching-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20515824]]></link><description>Agree, Fauda is great.

Namely --  Noting the completely opposite difference in national reactions to being attacked.  Ukrainians -- incredible amazing very long lasting PERSISTANCE and acceptance that their cause is worth it.  Russians -- the complete opposite. Why are they doing this to us? What did we do to deserve this? Our internet is down. This is unacceptable. We were promised that the SMO wouldn't actually impact us at home. Crying like babies. NO PERSISTANCE AT ALL.   First time I've heard this phrase -- the inevitably of Ukrainian victory.  Key Z fascist philosopher finally talking about Ukraine as if it actually exists as country.  Noting that in Russian culture to get respect and attention you need to inspire fear. Ukraine is now doing that to Russians.  I make no predictions but the sum of this video certainly does.</description><pubDate>Wed, 20 May 2026 23:35:44 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Investigations into Minnesota Congress Woman, News</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1394963-investigations-into-minnesota-congress-woman-news/?do=findComment&comment=20515820]]></link><description>I really do not see why the formality of an investigation is necessary.

Same with car insurance, and of course health insurance. I'm stunned when people tell me what they are paying.
