  1. Ah, quality journalism. "... but swiftly removed his trousers in an attempt to overpower her." I must remember that move on my nightly prowls rounds Jommers. Kudos for managing to escape with trousers around ankles. In related news, a man fell over while attempting to escape a shoe shop when he discovered the shoes he'd pinched were tied together. DOH!
  2. Here's the root of the problem: "the Department of Industrial Works and the Natural Resources and Environmental Crime Suppression Division." Ever heard of them before? Just another couple of do nothing departments nobody even knew existed. The Thai civil service, 400,000 paper shufflers on a fat wage and pension, with preferential treatment by the banks and high levels of personal debt. Yes, "We're in the Nepo generation..."
  3. The power to legislate rests with parliament. End of. Any proposed amendments to any section of Thai law are quite permissible. They could never, and should never, be seen as an attempt to overthrow the state. It's a complete mockery of the justice, legal and parliamentary systems. The CC doesn't have the power to issue such a damning and damaging verdict. Full stop. MFP are guilty of nothing. No case to answer. Case dismissed.
  4. Since when has "guilty by association" had any legal meaning at all?
  5. Seems the "7 dangerous days" count doesn't even include the 19th, 20th and 21st.
  6. Flogging a dead horse but proposing an amendment to any law is entirely within the remit of parliament. It's not a constitutional issue. This is a gross violation of parliamentary freedom. The CC should be disbanded immediately. If they want to ring fence such matters, they should remove them from the Thai legal system, overseen by parliament, and place them in the constitution. I really hope MFP vigorously argue this point.
  7. Plus, horror of horrors, down at Jomtien, Cheap Charlie's was shut, so no Friday fish and chips.

  9. Cue the parrot sketch. I watched the whole video of this insane event. The clerk really was extremely mild in her reaction, commenting he doesn't look well. I really was hoping the niece would come out with no, no, he's just resting. Ghoulish humour.
  10. What utter nonsense. Pork Pie aren't even the majority party, and there's nothing to say the speaker should come from largest party. He's been a disaster so far so the quicker they get rid of him the better. He should have resigned over refusing the second PM ballot last year. Got it all wrong.
  11. If your phone blocks software from an unknown source (eg APKs) you will have to temporarily remove the block, ie allow, in order to install the software. I think the default is to block, so somebody is voluntarily unblocking. Very foolish if you don't know the source.
  12. Just wait til they start digging everything up. Imminent according to my source. Thais seems to have better news feeds than us
