animatic Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 It seems my earlier comment was deleted. I wasn't advocating or inspiring the action in question... I though THAT was clear. But that Thaksin's particular inaction didn't match up too well with his bid for asylum... I can't really see why it was deleted. But... I guess that one word was too dangerous for someone.

Ricardo Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Perhaps he had parked it outside the Benefits-Office, while he just popped in, to make the usual asylum-seekers' claim for support ?

bulmercke Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Thaksin and Potjamon have their own private security in London - Thai nationals who are both male and female - and you can be sure that special branch has an attachment assigned to them - money and influence talk - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The white roller looks very similar to the one John Lennon had - in 1967 - before he decided to have it re-painted in a multi-coloured rainbow style - I'm sure you've all seen the photos of Lennon posing next to the beast - As for you post aazA - unfortunately - and as I've mentioned before - and I've been following political events here very closely for about eight years now - Thaksin - is the problem - and even though he is no longer domiciled in Thailand - his influence and political sway is having an extremely detrimental affect on the country - Edited October 19, 2008 by bulmercke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frodo Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 why does the nation think this is newsworthy? Just a guess. Knowing Thaksin's past record of turning molehills into mountains, he'll turn this event into another assassination attempt. In another Thaksin episode about so many "attempts" on his life, he'll show that it would be very unsafe for him and his family to return to Thailand, and he'll secure his asylum bid.

Phantom V, the Roller picture I posted earlier is, I believe, a Silver Cloud. Anyway I'm not nitpicking, Bulmercke, but had to reply since your Avatar bears a striking resemblance to madam Yoko Ono.

Scott Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I have no compassion for Thaksin or his wife, but I find it interesting that so many people could see him as the problem. He isn't the problem, the problem(s) are deep within the social structure and the current political situation is the flashpoint. This kind of thinking is the same as what got the US into trouble in Iraq, where they found that Saddam Hussein wasn't the problem. Both men are nuisances and boils on the butt of humanity, but that's about it. I hope he gets his window fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
