Mr Kipling comments

So the poor British old age pensioners take another hit so others can virtue signal? What a sad state the UK has become.

The woman entered the U.S. as a tourist and returned home with an income of about 9.6 million yen in one month.

Well, who says crime doesn't pay?

By chocolate I hope you mean milk chocolate! Cadbury's was OK until they started out sourcing production to Poland. The best from the UK is Galaxy. German chocolate is pretty good, Belgian too. Australian chocolate has a slightly higher melting point which means that even the same Kit Kat down under isn't quite as good. Anything from Malaysia or Thailand is just garbage for the same melt point reason. US chocolate... meh. All the Japanese brands are very good.

But we must start by recognizing that returning to Ukraine's pre-2014 borders is an unrealistic objective,

As I predicted, all the deaths since the failed Ukrainian offensive in 2023 have been pointless.

Not all Jews are Zionist murderers, the two medics should know that.

So racial discrimination is only against blacks? Another example of the UK's two tier justice system.

I never need a straw to drink, but then again, I'm not 3 years old.

Yet another case of mother's new man not wanting the child of a previous relationship "in the way".

For those not aware, these boxes are not charity boxes. All the money put in them is for the temple owner and is tax free as is all of their income. The criminal was stealing from the temple owners not the poor. Still a crime but some not aware of Japanese culture may believe he was robbing a charity collection.

wanderlust...

Anyone who has done cave diving knows how hard it is swim against a current of water;

Anyone who has done cave diving or is thinking about it needs to re-evaluate their life choices. A simple risk/reward analysis is all that is necessary. Risk... death/ Reward... get to see some muddy cave walls.

The poor guy just can't get a break. Drives into a sink hole then drowns in a sewer pipe.

No, most of the "random" attacks in Japan are not random. They are not looking for a specific person but most seem to be a target weaker than the attacker.

Guru....

Foreign women visitors are NOT required to wear head covering.

MBS has decreed that it is not compulsory and both foreigners and Saudi citizens can go without especially if they like being shouted at and abused.

Set foot anywhere outside the regular tourist zone and good luck.

This is incorrect. Saudi has adopted big cultural changes, adopting western dress, letting women drive cars, investing heavily in sports and entertainment.

Western dress? Really It is illegal to be in public without a head covering if female, even if non Muslim and a foreign national. They have had a huge propaganda campaign using "sports washing" to improve their image, especially after the "bone cutter" incident in the Saudi embassy in Turkey. At the core, nothing has changed, no democracy, no freedom of faith, dress or government.

No no no. It’s just wrong Mr kippling. Deep fried mars bars, deep fried Snickers/Marathons, and deep fried pizza is just plain wrong.

You need to try a Mars in a light batter, warm with ice cream....

They have been deep frying chocolate (along with everything else) for many years in Scotland. And although it pains me to say it.... A deep fried Mars bar is actually exceedingly good.

Even if Trump wanted to help, there is nothing he can do, he does not have the power to bring back the dead.

The AfD are the last chance to save Germany and German culture.

No "block" function? You would think that after the first, say, 10,000 posts they would have blocked her.

Antiquesaving...

Strange, how do you calculate that.

Simple, by reading the article..

The survey, which solicited responses from both women and men, showed that 43.3 percent want to keep using their original surnames.

This is a free gift to politicians. A popular policy that cost hardly anything to implement.

Only 43% want to use their original name so it is fact an unpopular policy.

Just hire the best for the job. This move is probably good news for Asian Americans who were discriminated against by DEI programs.

Mrs Kipling kept her own family name because she was smart enough to marry a foreigner. An exceedingly good one.

Australia passes Nazi style laws against Nazis. How ironic.

A sad day for free speech.

Did they scramble the special squad for this one?

At around 1:40 a.m

I imagine our British hooligan friend had spent the evening sampling the local beverages.

Would be interesting to hear the exact and true story on what exactly made that British guy snap. Usually it takes a lot of drama until one cannot help hymself and gets to physical.

Obviously DanteKH has never been to the UK, never met anyone from the UK or read any news from the UK.

That "English gentleman" image is false. The UK is probably the most violent place in Europe.

Calling out facts is never racist

The fact is this problem is caused by Chinese tourists or the majority of people causing the problem are Chinese tourists.

Google higher education rates for subjects like engineering , in say, Iran for women

Higher than Europe ...WAY higher than USA.

Iran also has more female politicians than the US which is great but also irrelevant.

Divorce rules? Dress rules, inheritance rules? And equally important, the cultural norms in (many )Muslim countries.

Forced marriages? Honor killings?

WoodyLee..

All faiths give women equal rights regardless,

No they don't, and one in particular, you know the one, has issues about women that really go against modern Western ideology.
