You are happy to criticise military spending here, and every social problem gets a submarine comment, but it considerably less by percentage GDP than your own country.

Instead the understanding of what is considered a Constitution is the recognition of law and regulations as passed by any elected Government.

Yes. In reference. And as such protects the right to peaceful protest. I do not know of any written constitution that does not limit that. But still often an abused right if it offends the money grubbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Death sentence quote had nothing to do with political asylum William, Under EU Rules you do not get sent back to any country, democratic (USA) or not, If you are libel for the death penalty . No one was suggesting that Ms Yingluck is libel for the death penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
