Crime Thai–Swedish Man Arrested in Pattaya Drugs Sting
Picture courtesy of ที่นี่ พัทยา A Thai–Swedish man has been arrested in a late-night anti-drugs operation in central Pattaya after a dramatic foot chase in which he allegedly tried to throw evidence onto a resident’s rooftop. In the early hours, Bang Lamung District Chief Patcharapatch Sritanyanont ordered a joint operation involving district administrative officers and Pattaya City Police to target suspected drug networks in the area. Acting on intelligence from an informant, officers set up a sting to catch a man later identified only as “Jimmy”, 35, accused of selling drugs to local youths and foreign tourists in Pattaya’s nightlife district. The operation took place beside a hotel on Pattaya Third Road, where undercover agents attempted a controlled purchase. However, Jimmy reportedly became suspicious and fled on foot. Officers gave chase through the streets, during which the suspect allegedly hurled his mobile phone and a bag of drugs onto the roof of a nearby house in an attempt to destroy evidence. Exhausted, he eventually surrendered. A search of his person uncovered seven ecstasy tablets in his right trouser pocket. A further search of his Honda Click motorcycle revealed 44 methamphetamine pills, 3.59 grams of crystal methamphetamine hidden in a black tube and two blister packs of “Happy Five” pills. Jimmy has been charged with possession of illegal drugs with intent to sell and drug use. He is now in custody at Pattaya City Police Station pending further legal proceedings.

UK-Politics 25 Lies - How is Starmer still in office
Starmer has been accused of lifting deceit to a new level. He claimed the Chagos Islands handover would cost £3.4 billion, but it’s revealed to be £35 billion—ten times more. This significant discrepancy has fueled outrage, as critics demand transparency and honesty. The issue highlights concerns over trust in leadership and the importance of accountability in political dealings. 1. The 10 pledges con. Starmer won the Labour leadership by promising 10 hard-left policies, from scrapping tuition fees to ending the two-child benefit cap. Once in charge, he dumped the lot (to be fair, that was a good thing). 2. The Winter Fuel betrayal. Before the election, he led pensioners to believe the Winter Fuel Payment was safe. It wasn’t. 3. The social care stitch-up. He also stayed silent on scrapping the £86,000 social care cap, then binned it without warning in a huge blow to the elderly. 4. Waspi women abandoned. Starmer publicly demanded pledged “fair and fast” compensation for millions 1950s women hits by the rising state pension age. He took their votes and dumped them after taking office. 5. Breaking his ‘no tax rises’ vow. During the campaign, he repeatedly swore not to hike taxes on “working people”. Chancellor Rachel Reeves then hiked employer’s National Insurance (NI) by £25billion. The Office for Budget Responsibility calculates that 75% of the cost will be passed onto working people in lower wages and higher prices. 6. Then lying about what he’d said. As I exposed yesterday, the Labour manifesto pledged not to increase NI. Yesterday, the Treasury fiddled that, lyingly claiming Labour had stuck to its promise not to increase employee NI. That after-the-fact lie is so blatant even my blood is boiling now. 7. Betrayed farmers. Starmer promised “certainty” to farmers, then hit them with inheritance tax on agricultural land. Hard-working farming families now face a lifetime of uncertainty. 8. Family firms misled. He vowed to work with business, then slapped NI and IHT on family-owned companies. Many firms will have to sell up when the founder dies, simply to cover the bill. 9. The ‘black hole’ lie. Starmer and Reeves dishonestly claimed to have discovered a £22billion black hole in the public finances to justify tax hikes they hadn't mentioned in the election. Outraged, the normally measured Institute for Fiscal Studies said the hole had been “obvious to anyone who dared to look”. 10. Interest rate fiction. Never trust Starmer around a number. He casually told Parliament Labour inherited interest rates of 11%, more than double the true figure of 5.25%. Didn't he think someone would check? 11. Brexit double-deal. His EU deal was a backdoor return to freedom of movement, betraying British workers despite election claims. He also sold out UK workers in his India trade deal. 12. NHS outsourcing U-turn. In a bid to woo the Labour left, Starmer vowed to end private NHS contracts. Now he's used them to treat 500,000 patients. 13. The gender truth dodge. The PM can't even give a straight answer on what a woman is. Do they have penises? Don't expect a straight answer. 14. Cosying up to Beijing. Our lawyer PM talked tough on human rights, then embraced closer ties with Xi Jinping’s China while clamping down on civil liberties at home. Labour was also buying green tech built by Chinese slavery, until backbench MPs forced a climbdown. 16. The social care numbers trick. Boasted of an £880million funding boost but hid that Labour's NI hikes will cost children's hospices and care homes £900million. 16. Border control collapse. The PM's promises to “smash the gangs” behind Channel crossings are meaningless. Nearly 50,000 illegal migrants have arrived since he took office. 17. Paying France to fail. Taxpayers send millions to France to “stop the boats”, and the French just watch them leave. 18. Freebie mania. Starmer's off-the-chart hypocrisy is shown by the way he's accepted more than £100,000 in gifts, including football and concert tickets, more than any other political leader in recent times. 19. Clothing cover-up. He also failed to declare £5,000 worth of clothes for his wife from donor Lord Alli. It was later repaid, but only AFTER being exposed. 20. Accommodation perks. Oh yes, and Starmer also took free stays and other benefits from donors, fuelling “Freebiegate” claims. 21. Beergate unanswered. Boris was forced out by Partygate transgressions, among other things. Starmer somehow wriggled out of any charges, despite knocking down beer and curry with 17 people at the height of the pandemic. Apparently, it was "necessary work". 22. Infecting others with his lies. Dishonesty spreads: I caught out Reeves on 12 rotten lies within months of taking office. 23. Rushanara Ali hypocrisy. His housing minister backed reforms to stop landlords evicting tenants then hiking rents. Turns out she’d done it herself. In contrast to Starmer, she quit when found out. 24. Dishonesty culture. Labour’s culture of double-dealing rolls on, with Starmer setting the tone from day one. The PM says one thing, does another, and thinks people won’t notice. Boris was forced out of Number 10. How is Starmer still there? Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Express 2025-08-14 -

UK Epping migrant hotel: another man is charged with sexual assault
Asylum seeker at Epping migrant hotel is charged with sexual assault after Ethiopian charged for 'attacking girls' in a separate incident sparked huge protests A Syrian migrant living at the Bell Hotel in Epping, which has been central to recent protests, has been charged with several offences, intensifying public debate. Mohammed Sharwarq, aged 32, faces serious accusations including sexual assault and multiple counts of assault. Essex Police arrested Sharwarq on August 12 following reports of incidents that allegedly occurred between July 25 and August 12. His charges include two counts of common assault, four counts of assault by beating, and one count of sexual assault under the Sexual Offences Act 2003. Following his arrest, Sharwarq was remanded in custody and was due to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates’ Court. Police have stated that they are not pursuing any further suspects related to this case. The Bell Hotel has become a flashpoint for anti-immigration protests, partly due to another incident involving Hadush Kebatu, an Ethiopian migrant. Kebatu, 38, has been charged with unrelated sexual offences including allegations against girls aged 14 and 16. He is accused of inappropriate actions over two days shortly after arriving in the UK by small boat. Protests have spread from the Bell Hotel to other similar accommodations across the country, with demonstrators waving St George's flags and voicing their concerns over the national handling of such cases. This growing unrest reflects the broader tensions in the UK regarding immigration policies and community impacts. These events underscore the ongoing challenges faced in addressing the integration and safety of migrants within British communities. The legal proceedings for both Sharwarq and Kebatu are likely to be pivotal in shaping public discussion on immigration, public safety, and the systems in place to manage asylum and residency in the UK. The Bell Hotel and similar accommodations have found themselves at the heart of this national dialogue, with local and national authorities under scrutiny for their responses. As these cases progress through the legal system, they highlight the need for addressing underlying issues in a balanced and fair manner, ensuring justice and community cohesion.

Ukraine Russia Prepares Nuke Missile Tests Amid Trump's Warning
Putin prepares for nuclear war on eve of Trump summit: Russia readys new cruise missile nuke for tests in satellite images after Donald warned of 'severe consequences' if Ukraine conflict continues Russia is set to test its nuclear-powered cruise missile, the Burevestnik, coinciding with Vladimir Putin’s high-stakes summit with Donald Trump in Anchorage, Alaska. This development comes shortly after Trump issued a stern warning to Putin, threatening "severe consequences" if the ongoing conflict in Ukraine continues unabated. Satellite imagery from Planet Labs reveals heightened activity at the Pankovo test site in Novaya Zemlya, a remote location in the Barents Sea. The images show a significant presence of personnel, equipment, and military assets linked to previous tests of the missile, known to NATO as SSC-X-9 Skyfall. Analysts, including Jeffrey Lewis from the Middlebury Institute of International Studies and Decker Eveleth from CNA, have confirmed these preparations, indicating an imminent test. The Burevestnik, touted by Putin as "invincible" due to its nuclear-powered propulsion system, is claimed to have an almost limitless range. However, doubts about its practical effectiveness and safety concerns regarding potential radiation release persist. Historically, the missile has a poor track record, with only two partial successes out of 13 known tests. The planned test appears strategically timed to overshadow Trump's efforts to mediate the Ukraine conflict during the Alaska summit. Although the test may have been scheduled before the summit was announced, Putin's choice not to delay its visible preparations suggests a strategic assertion of power. In Anchorage, Trump aims to employ his "art of the deal" strategy to negotiate peace, potentially reshaping European and global security dynamics. However, European leaders remain wary of any lenient ceasefire agreements, fearing they may embolden Russia to extend its influence further into European territories. As part of the negotiation, Trump is reportedly considering offering Russia access to rare earth minerals as an incentive to halt aggression, including opening up resources in Alaska and lifting certain sanctions. These potential offers aim to encourage Putin towards genuine peace talks. The international community’s attention is fixed on the Alaska summit. The outcome could significantly impact geopolitical dynamics, affecting the strategic balance of power in the region. Trump remains firm in his position, emphasizing that failure to reach a peaceful resolution could lead to severe repercussions for Russia. Vice President JD Vance highlighted the US’s dedication to European peace and security, drawing parallels with historical alliances between the US and the UK. European leaders, including Sir Keir Starmer, have expressed readiness to support peacekeeping missions in response to diplomatic developments. This summit is not just a discussion about the present conflict but a crucial moment that could dictate the future landscape of international relations. Trump’s planned meeting with Putin is viewed as a pivotal step towards laying the foundation for subsequent talks involving Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. As the world anticipates the outcomes, there remains cautious optimism for a breakthrough that could redefine stability and peace in the region. The international community stands hopeful, yet alert, to the possibilities of what this summit might herald for future diplomatic engagements. This delicate balance of diplomacy and military might will be carefully watched, as global leaders strive for solutions that will bring an enduring peace to the region and address the humanitarian crises that have arisen from prolonged conflict.

Hunter Biden replies to Melania Trump threats to sue for $1 B
Discovery would be interesting and she would, as her defence have to go through exactly how she met Trump and prove Epstein wasn’t involved and never went to an Epstein party. Hunter is the son Trump wishes he had -
