Another Major Trump Flip-Flop
I think it's acceptable. But if you really want to solve the problem, there's an easy way to do it. Just make it a felony to hire undocumented immigrants. Do you support that? -

Continental ContiRoad Tires For CBR250R
I recently changed tires again on my older Honda CBR250R. And since buying the bike new in 2011, I've had various sets of tires on there. First I had the original IRC tires on there that came with the bike, which, after a while, I discovered were awful, very slippery, and eventually turned hard as a rock after using them for not too long. I'm glad I got rid of them when I did. I felt like they were a liability and a danger driving on them after a while. Then I think my second set of tires were a pair of Michelin Pilot Street tires. They were fine, but nothing to write home about if I'm to be honest. And they even seemed a bit slippery at times too. After that, I switched to a Thai brand which were very inexpensive, a brand called Quick at the time. But they are no longer available as far as I know. So I had to switch brands again when that brand became no longer available. So after those, I switched to a pair of Corsa tires made in Indonesia. They were really good and I liked them. Drove around on those for about three years, but only put about 6000 km on them as I don't drive very far distances anyway. Then eventually, they started to get a bit hard and I decided to change tires again. Then, a few weeks ago, I was going to replace the existing Corsa pair with a new pair of the same tires, but when I checked the price now, the cost had risen by about 50%. Seemed like too much for Indonesian made tires. Maybe the import duty had gone up on them, but I'm not sure. So I started looking into other options for about the same price, and I discovered that Continental, the German tire brand, started manufacturing tires locally in Thailand for smaller bikes with a line of sport touring tires they call ContiRoad tires. These ContiRoad tires were basically the same price as the Corsa tires from Indonesia. But these are made in a factory in Thailand by a German company. I believe they started the factory up in 2021, so they're still fairly new to manufacturing tires here in Thailand. But I've had them on the bike for a few weeks now. As I said, I don't ride very much, and mainly just locally, so I've only put about 100 km on the tires thus far. But they look really good. Meaning, the rubber is very nice, soft, and the treads look really high-quality in terms of design. They remind me of the same quality as the Continental tires I've had on my bigger bike for many years already. These new tires are still in what's considered the break-in period, for the first 200 km, but last night I did do a bit of cornering on them to push them a bit more and they were fine. No slipping at all. Felt just perfect. I was wondering if anyone has tried out any of these newer tires from Continental yet and can share any further impressions? -

Elon Musk Advocates for Tommy Robinson’s Release Amid Criticism of UK Leadership
I wouldn't go that far , I was pointing out that his "crime" was to help a person get documents to get a legitimate mortgage . Same as any felang in Thailand suggesting an agent to get a retirement visa without the documents and all those involved getting jailed for a year
