Posted in: Australian PM says Macron not taking his calls See in context
Macron has really thrown all his toys out of his pram and and this very moment is sucking his thumb and calling for his mother. The French population must be embarrassed.
They dropped the ball and let out far too many secrets and got punished for it, take responsibility for your actions and move on! It’s called being an adult, no a entitled man child.

Posted in: Johnny Depp film sees Minamata pollution issue as cautionary tale See in context
“"I studied about Minamata disease last year in history class, but the movie was so real. The problem is far more serious than I thought," said Mami Matsukawa, 15, who was among some 180 students who watched the film at the public Kojimachi Junior High School.”
yup people should question more about what they have been taught about historical events!

Ffs. Japan needs to get with the program already and implement a sex offenders registry.
totally agree, Keith nice I ask a good regular customer/friend why so many of these thing happen her and his drunk/honest response was that all Japanese men are lolicons. His exact words! I nearly fell of my chair!
This was over ten years when I was more optimistic about people having some form of integrity.

Posted in: Japan eyes extending COVID-19 emergency in Tokyo, other areas See in context
@Sheikh Yerboaby
I agree with most of your post but remember Covid is infectious so specialist ward or better hospitals must be set up or you're just put infected people next to not infected people. Plus my wife's a nurse and had a cluster on her floor last year, her hospital specializes in liver problems then suddenly she is expected to work on patients with this new "killer" virus. She and her workmates did a great job and watched many die from underline issues.
Its not so black and white what is black and white is that this government has dropped the ball BIG TIME.

So, they will have the sites and probably the necessary equipment but not the staff?
How about some medical university students in their last year?
good point but far to logical for these dinosaurs. They will just burn tons of cash on some unthinkable idea which will need 20 meeting and hankos to get approved

Good for them! Prayuth is a hood and a dictator. With the king living in Germany Thailand’s in a weird place. Should have made his sister Maha queen. It would have brought the country together.
