  1. Sounds like a wise move. Why don't you just become a member ?
  2. Two-tier policing in London now clearly in evidence, a reminder that the London Met police report to mayor Khan.
  3. One issue with which I can agree with Trump is his insistence that Nato members should pay their fair share of defence costs. Too many of them fall way below the agreed 2.5% of GDP.
  4. The centurions were given 5000 baht once a year by the Krabi Educational Council. Such stunning generosity...
  5. It must be deep in our psyche. Not that long ago we controlled 25% plus of the world's population and land mass so we tend to think we can go anywhere, and behave badly, with impunity. The sad reality is that we are greatly reduced, and struggle just to run our own, relatively small, country. Our politicians are full of s..t, as are our rivers, beaches and reservoirs.
  6. A load of rubbish, but better than CNN.
  7. 'Some' residents would be a more accurate headline for this social media article.
  8. I've been mugged twice, once in metro Manila, Philippines, and once in Blackheath, South London, UK.
  9. Never really bothers me how much I pay for a lady drink, unkess it's totally outrageous. A few hundred baht here or there is hardly worth worrying about unless you are in poor financial circumstances, in which case you shouldn't be in bars anyway.
  10. Appalling behaviour, but he should know it was unwise to stop, especially with youngsters on board.
  11. The numbers for east Asia don't make sense. Also, what has projected Ireland into being the third richest country in the world ?
  12. The perception in the USA and Europe is that the TAT favours Russians, Indians and Chinese, and that Westerners are no longer welcome in Thailand.
