    Sorry but it won't happen. In order to amend the Constitution, it is required to have the agreement of at least one third of the Senate and at least 20% of MPs from each political party.

    So the next Senate will be selected by committees and panels (in which representatives of agencies will hold the majority of votes). Who will select these committees? The EC, which has been selected by the NCPO. 

     

    So a constitutional amendment then?

    Up until the end of Fawlty Towers (1979) he was great but what has he done since then that was any good?

    He is into his 80's now and well past his, great,  then prime time!

    My plea to him would be;

    "Please don't spoil our great image of you by coming back in a flop of a production!"

    He wrote and starred in A Fish Called Wanda, which was brilliant, a decade after that.

    There's none so blind (or delusional) as those who cannot see.

     

    See how quickly you resort to abuse for 'argument' when you find an opinion you disagree with.

     

    Left wing, right wing, Pravda wing... what kind of government do you call Trudeau's utterly Soviet style where  protest/dissidence is cowardly squashed by freezing people's bank accounts?

    The guy ran down our country and gov. Just a little of his own medicine. Downtown Ottawa was shutdown for weeks. Where else would that be tolerated???? When a similar American KKKonvoy attempted the same in Washington they were kept outside the city. Over 1,000 have been either charged or prosecuted over Jan 6. The only reason the Yellow Shirts got away with it in BKK was the royalist establishment and military had their back.

    Thanks for leaving. The more rightwing nut jobs that we can be rid of the better. 

     

    As for the visa change hopefully this is a stepping stone to full visa on arrival status for all Thai people visiting one of the greatest countries on earth, The Great White North, Canada.

    We? Speak for yourself. i could care less what you think. but you obviously care about what i think or yoj would not have typed such a boring long winded post. so, go back to your beloved premier. just cos he won 3 times dont make him good, it just shows that the opposition sucks more

    I am a social démocrate so would never vote Liberal Party. My NDP hold the balance of power and are doing a great job in getting some great legislation passed. You are right about the Cons sucking.

    i dont, but i care about the hypocrisy of my country. canada keeps trying to show a holier than thou image of itself when in fact it is a shatty place to live. taxation without representation, quebec's ministers just voted themselves a 30% salary increase but fail to give teacers 3%. i dont want to go there anymore cos i am going off topic. but fact is, canada should give this guy life without possibility of parole in a max security prison rather than send him back here

    We don't miss you. What's really going on? The French kids take your lunch money @ school? As for Justin he has won 3 elections in a row. His government just banned war weapons for sale, increased pension benefits for retirees over 70 and enacted a child dental program. The Trump wannabe leading the Cons, a climate change denier, has zero chance of beating him next election.

     

    Canadian media reported that the Royal Thailand Embassy gave the Canadian federal Minster of Justice, a Quebecer, written assurances that the death penalty was not to be applied if found guilty. 

     

    The accused served 9 years in the Canadian army, special forces, including a tour in Afghanistan. Then worked as a mercenary in Syria and Iraq. It's being speculated that he was a professional hit man. Who knows how many assassinations he got away with.
