Why can't young people buy jeans, pants, strides that go all the way to their ankles?

Seeing the slacks heading down that path bewilders me, I see generally at the races the young lads with a nice shirt, and a blazer that matches their 3/4 pants?

They wearing high heels too?

May aswell be.

The missus is always trying to deck me out in what's in fashion, I'm bloody glad that she finds this fad as weird as I do.

Why is Ben Simmons coping so much hate???

Mainly from the media, most of the general public couldn't give two hoots.

I understand the media is angry he pulled out of playing for Australia, as that's something they could have made profit off of by covering the stories that come with him playing.

What’d he do to get refused entry at the casino?
Act like a knob?

Nah, he and his crew were asked to produce ID to prove they were of age. Crown, along with a number of venues have a policy that unless you're obviously over the age of 25, you need to show ID.

Once they finally produced ID, they were all allowed in.

How soon before the Chinese government rolls into Hong Kong and sorts out the current protests Tiananmen Square-style?

Yep, they're pushing the authorities too breaking point I would imagine.

PS - They do that sort of stuff in the US now, too.

Hong Kong airport basically closed today which will create a bit of bedlam especially as they were still taking incoming flights until early this morning but outgoing flights have been canned since last night

Beijing have been very patient to date, I'm surprised they haven't acted already. Look out when President Xi gives them the nod.

As we speak.....

The Chinese government has released footage that appears to show military vehicles driving towards the Hong Kong border.

The short clip shows a series of roughly two dozen green armoured fighting vehicles entering a “service area” in a row and riding down a highway, purportedly towards Shenzhen, the mainland city bordering the territory.

The state-run People’s Daily did not comment on the purpose of the vehicles, but noted that the People’s Armed Police are in charge of “handling riots, turmoil, seriously violent, criminal activities, terrorist attacks and other societal security incidents”.

The post coincided with a statement from Chinese authorities vowing to crack down on Hong Kong protesters and likening the demonstrations to “terrorism”.

“Radical Hong Kong protesters have repeatedly used extremely dangerous tools to attack police officers,” said Yang Guang, a spokesman for the Chinese government’s Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, in remarks translated by Chinese state media. “The first signs of terrorism are starting to appear.”

He said the protesters’ “violent crimes” must be dealt with “resolutely” and “without mercy”.
