With respect, I disagree. A economy should endeavour to up the value chain. I understand very well that as this process happens, citizens of that country don't want to do basic things like a taxi, a painter, a cleaner etc. The truth is they will do those jobs but expect higher wages. This means...

My own opinion is migration has to be 100% halted. Even no more asylums. Yes if a millionaire or doctor applies they should be considered. Along with this strict policy no more wars or intrusions abroad. Non.

More disturbing reports of gross negligence by the Indian state. It appears that allowing the Hindu Kumb Mela and big election rallies has led to this tragedy unfolding.

Often on news reports covering French military you see French soldiers of Algerian/Magreb background. Surprisingly between 10% to as high as 20% of French Army is of Muslim extraction. Perhaps @Vergennes can confirm this. "But that sort of behavior is untenable today due to the Army’s growing...

In fact even the short lived Vichy France from 1940 to 1942 was led by this dude. And trust me that uniform is not of a school warden. The separation of military from the civilian arm and it's subsidiary role to elected representatives is more Anglo-Saxon tradition. Particulary after the...

As @Vergennes will tell you the military has always played a outsized role. Napoleon, De Gaulle were generals. In fact the present republic is only 60 odd years old. The fourth republic was effectively overthrown in what was a military coup of 1958. French Army units led by paratroopers from...

Modi leads India into viral apocalypse...

Seeing the disaster unfold at the crest of the second wave in India has helped to focus minds in Pakistan. Two days ago emergency was declared and army has been deployed across the entire country to help police enforce protocols. Over the last year the public has become complacent with following...

Hahahah ... India orders Twitter and Facebook to take down posts critical of its coronavirus handling https://techcrunch.com/2021/04/24/india-orders-twitter-to-take-down-tweets-critical-of-its-coronavirus-handling/ Fury at Twitter for obeying India's orders to delete Tweets criticising its...

Whether she slept with him or not - non of that has any substance or relevance. The import here is the FACT that the Chief Minister is trying censor freedom of speech by threatening to confiscate peoples properties if they go against the state's narrative.

Fair play to the Indian government. My issue and point is all states given circumstances will take extenuating actions. It all depends on circumstances and we should not go around touting about this and that. The reality is even USA shut down Trump's tweets. Freedom of speech is a luxury and...

More example of censorship in India. The Chief Minister of Maharashtra State has said "anybody who Tweets about lack of oxygen in the state their properties will be confiscated". Interesting. Go to 1:35.

Twitter has removed posts critical of the Indian government’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic after an “emergency order” from the government. #IndiaCovid @Nilgiri I hope this meets the guidlines as Twitter removed posts critical of the government in what is naked censorship. And the source...

@Nilgiri did you edit the title of this thread? If so why? And why was I not notified? The thread is about Indian government censoring free speech. By forcing Twiiter to hide certain tweets it amounts to censorship. I am opening another thread to EXACTLY reflect the report cited below. Please do...

I am sure this help will be appreciated by Indians even if their government is too recalcitrant. India has turned into a corona disaster zone and is glowing red with infections as the surge tears through India exposing Modi's governments incompetance and haughtiness. Meantime their solution is...

Ah okay, thanks.

As a indication of the storm clouds gathering on the horizon Government of Sindh Province has now also requested federal government for assistence from military to help police enforce SOPs. Khyber Pakhtunkwa and Punjab Provinces have already deployed military in aid of local police. Sindh...

Today is the 25th year of the formation of the Pakistan Tehreek Insaaf Party or Movement for Justice Party.

Well it's easy to crap on the media or describe it as "porn" when it reports something that you don't like. The BBC also reports Indian government has asked Twitter to censor any Indian accounts contents it does not like. That is censorship. Please go to the BBC video at 1:25.
