Report Thailand Waves Goodbye to Costly Scout Uniforms, Eases Parent Woes
You see this at "rich kid" schools too. Kids walking around with 5 toes and a heel sticking out of the sock (on both feet). Parents are just feckless. Socks are 20 baht. -

Chinese Boeing plane returned to US
Different system. The UK didn't get rid of Truss, the 1922 Committee did. In the British system, the Prime Minister is the First Among Equals. Head of a cabinet with the power to hire and fire ministers. But also a MP like the reast of them. Traditionally, the Party Leader is chosen by the Parliamentary Party; in recent years, this has been expended to include the membership (eg. me), with I think unexpected consequences (I think the membership should shortlist the candidates, with a run off based on Westminster secret ballot). A PM could ignore a 22 vote, but then that would mean they wouldn't command the confidence of the Conservative parliamentary party, and in theory would depend on the opposition for support. A PM can step down, but still be leader of the Conservative Party (which does happen). Parliamentarians, who include members of the cabinet, are all accountable first and foremost to their constituents. The Whip can dilute that; promoting national or party interests over and above local issues. But there is still very much a local connection. The 47th President has recently let slip that the benefits of his policy will be felt in 10 years, and people have only got to stick to the line. Pity he didn't say that while electioneering. This is like when Rees-Mogg said, after Brexit, that the true benefits would be felt in 50 years, and that would have been obviously anyone supporting it (he is a Brexit champion). If both politicians had been more honest and treating the electrate like adults, there might have been a different outcome. -
