  1. I have heard from a very reliable source in Sukhothai that research has shown that if shops sell alcohol between 2pm and 5pm the solar ice-caps will melt, dinosaurs will roam northern Thailand and the sky will fall in. So best to be safe and avoid such catastrophe.
  2. Where does the word "potentially" fit? If plod can shake down anyone for a bribe he absolutely will, there is no "potentially" about it.
  3. "On Monday, he told reporters it was “necessary," given the country’s protracted political deadlock, for people to move past the party’s earlier promises not to cooperate with military leaders." I wonder what other promises are going to be ditched to stay in power?
  4. However long, or short, his time in jail he will still serve longer than Mr Red Bull for killing a cop
  5. "FF will utterly destroy all these clowns in the next election and will be able to reform Thailand unhindered." But only if there is a "next election".
  6. Thanks for the morning laugh, I almost fell off my chair
  7. The records of these funds are all in the papers "deemed to be unimportant are gradually being destroyed"
  8. Or probably looking for another way to stay in power
  9. Thanks for sharing this. It is clear that he does not own shares in an operating media business. But when will truth and facts deter the military and elite from destroying the competition?
  10. What a waste of time and money. Why don't the EC just ban the party, ban Pita from politics for the rest of his life because "we want to and that is what our bosses told us to do so we can keep our lovely military dictatorship for ever".
  11. Surely Pita must have known the army would try every trick in the book to disallow the election if he came out ahead. The "media shares" accusation is an old one. Surely he is not so dumb as to have left that vulnerability open. But I am sure the "vested interests" and generals will keep going until they void the election and stay in power. (but wait, they already have the majority enshrined in their cooked up constitution). Stand by for ............ business as usual
  12. No surprise. The military will hang on to its grip on power till the very last drop of blood of the ordinary Thai citizen. Disqualify the opposition, all tyrants use this tactic, just look at Hun Sen
  13. The military locked in its control of the government in the constitutional change after the coup. No need for any more coup, the Military is in control, there is no such thing as freedom and democracy in Thailand. The Land of Smiles is fast becoming the Land of Tears
  14. "She suggested that the police had gone without their cut in the pandemic as tourism floundered." They have a lot of catching up to do
  15. "The faculty of political sciences". What a surprise. It was probably only work experience for budding politicians (or serving ones!)
  16. May not regain the face, but certainly will regain the farce
