I think singing and dancing politicians should be banned globally at all times. It's so very, very cringe worthy.

19th century laws.... Politicians are people too, but they should be aware what they are doing.. As in Thailand they always go to far and that could have consequences, but than they are not suitable to be politician too

Tim, your vblog stopped at 1:41.  Odd that.  Internet is OK.  I just watched Rooster's vblog.  I now have watched the entire show.  False alarm.  Terry

Program stopped, thought perhaps GoT interference. Not so.
