His name's written on it already - the West Wing.

Hope they all bow. At the appropriate angle.

Stop testing NOW! And, Bob's your uncle. Problem solved.

How many years too late? Again.

Get rid of the virus completely. Zero testing NOW!

Aeon hired British online grocery pioneer Ocado in November to build state-of-the-art robotic warehouses, aiming to fend off rivals such as Amazon,

So they hired a company from "broadband laggard Britain". Wise choice, eh.

(I bought tickets before Xmas)

Can anyone clarify please: is this foreigner ban fixed till the end of July? The mofa website is not very clear. I'm due to visit Japan on July 20th (I bought the ti k

I used to tell people each of my kids is not a 'half' but a 'double'. Then wait 30 seconds while the look of puzzlement on their faces gradually gave way to a 'naru hodou' (occasionally). Usually just 'eeeeh?' though.

Oh the irony. Duh.

"The enforcement order will prohibit such actions as ringing a bell to annoy other cyclists, unnecessary braking and blocking a pathway... "

Good luck with enforcing that.

Is there a date when this ban is supposed to end?

Defeat coronavirus with 'shame'. Way to go.

Japan cannot respond quickly in disaster situations. Remember Kobe? Fukushima? And numerous others.

Three monkeys. Very Japan.

Desperate for the Olympics to go ahead, Japan hid the true scale of this crisis. Now the horse has bolted. You reap what you sow.

I'm just surprised that ISIS, Al Qaeda etc are not as yet (as far as we know) doing the same thing globally. Perfect way to commit suicide and take lots of others with you.

There goes your career, matey.

Let's avoid the shame and embarrassment of failure. March the injured ones off straightaway. Get them out of sight, and out of mind.

Junkie scum

Oh, the irony, that a country obsessed with the avoidance of shame should stoop to such shameful tactics to scrape through. And, irony of ironies, that they should get through on "fair play" criteria. I would have loved it if the ref had gone round giving yellow cards to each of the time-wasters, so that they had more than Senegal and, shock, horror, would have needed to score A GOAL to get through! In fact, why didn't the ref do this? Players get cautions for time-wasting in many other scenarios; why not this? Shame on you Japan.

Kawashima is an embarrassment, and has been for years. He can't catch the ball, he punches or palms it away, anywhere, and always tries to make every save look spectacular. He has no positional sense and he has no idea where his goalposts or goal-line are. To let that Vertongen header in says it all.

Let him come, if he dares... I can't wait. Just imagine all the demonstrations, marches, placards,rotten eggs, tomatoes, riots... Oh the humiliation, the embarrassment, the shame. The Brits will wipe that smug, manic, narcissistic, megalomaniac smirk off his bright orange mug once and for all. I just feel sorry for poor old Lillibet, in her 90's, who will have to "entertain" this moron. She'll just have to throw a sickie, catch another cold. Leave it to Charlie and Camilla to show him around- maybe visit Birmingham or Bradford, places with large Muslim populations. That'd be a laugh. Mind you they'd probably ban him from entering! Bring it on!

Come to Japan! Always a warm welcome here. There was a huge leap of almost 150% (from 2014-2015) in the number of refugees allowed to stay in Japan.

Up from 11, to 27.

Wimp.

What a cock-up

Could be the perfect excuse to take shelter in an English pub, with a few pints of Speckled Hen, and watch England hammer Ukraine (4am Wed. morning), then pray to God for the email from work saying its a day-off!

And then she licks the paper, and you get to breathe in all her germs.. influenza? AIDS? herpes? Mmm, yummy

Best of luck, Mr. Mainali. Enjoy every moment of you new life with your family.

I'm shagged out reading this. Feel like some wacky backy
