Japan’s prosecution and criminal court are notorious for taking a very narrow approach that often leads to victims being criminalised - so that vested interests can boast a high prosecution rate.

Worth remembering that the ‘Land of a thousand gods’
Is also the ‘Land of a thousand scams’

Tread carefully.

#Oikeisto - samaa paskaa pakkausmaasta riippumatta.

Japanissa pääministeri #ShigeruIshiba päätti ihan ize, että järjestetään ennenaikaiset parlamenttivaalit liberaalidemokraattisen puolueensa #LDP:n korruptioskandaalin takia, mutta kun #liberaalidemokraatit sitten häviävät #vaalit historiallisen huonolla tuloksella, ilmoittaa #Ishiba, ettei aio erota.

EDIT: Ja niin, tämäkin "liberaalipuolue" on todellisuudessa konservatiivinationalistinen.
