    I can't complain as it is free.

    Once, I suggested that waste plastic be sent from Phuket for recycling by train instead of truck. Much cheaper. People were shocked. Never crossed their minds.

    Most people complain about the queues. If they sort that out they could jump further up the table.

    I think the writer was being sarcastic...

    That says a lot more than the writer meant. I suppose the defence portfolio should be in the hands of a military man but why always the army?

    Wow. Read the context. As an alternative to nuking civilians - yes.

    Not sure what end result these watchdogs are looking for. A complete ban on alcohol a la Saudi Arabia? If not, why do they assume that people will stop drinking alcohol if there is no marketing? The fact alcohol is on sale is incentive enough to drink. Shouldn't the anti-alcohol brigade focus instead on education and strict laws on underage drinking?

    There are a lot of Iranian people who are against the theocracy there. Nuclear weapons would not discriminate. Iranians are not Arabic, so the Arab nations are hardly sympathetic, but I don't think anyone would appreciate a nuclear attack in the region. Israel would be better off specifically targeting the Iranian government and military leaders.

    Perhaps a bit more analysis about why migrants pass through most of the EU to cross over into the UK is justified. Why are countries like France not the first choice? Why is it the UK is soo attractive?

    Thanks. But I guess there is no supreme court that is elected by the people?

    As most on here use a pseudonym, I wouldn't be surprised if there are some females who have their own reasons for not declaring themselves.

    If I remember correctly, talking to someone from Thai Union several years ago, they put policies in place to avoid negative publicity and their major overseas investors asking them some serious questions. I don't think they expected to go to prison however.

    Maybe someone else knows the answer but I can't think of a country that elects their Supreme Court, as in the whole country voting for the judges. Please explain what she means.

    It would be helpful if they showed a comparison with previous years.
