Knocking Thaksin off his perch is a tremendous accomplishment. The idiot Yellows will soon be dreaming of the days under Thaksin as move Forward begins implementing policies far far more progressive than anything Thaksin ever dared (or wanted). They’re going to be wishing they stuck with the devil they knew.

Pick up the remote and… wait for it… change the channel.

Can you explain how the article is evidence of 27 million voices being inspired by Chuwit?
How do you navigate life in Thailand taking everything translated into English literally?
The answer is of course you don’t.
You're being pedantic here because you can’t bring yourself to comment on Chuwit’s actual message. Go on, try it, I dare you…
Do you think the Senators should accept the result of the election?
Can you answer?

Unless you can point to some?
The article is the evidence.
I find it fascinating that every pro democracy utterance is dissected down to its minutiae by you junta fans whilst at the same time pro junta ridiculous nonsense at odds with reality is accepted as rock solid fact without an ounce of scrutiny.
Move Forward’s governance is going to be a nightmare for you guys.

In your rushed and impulsive need to support the junta, you have perhaps locked in on a too narrow a definition of inspire. Inspire also means to motivate and influence - in this case, by speaking up loudly and publicly, Chuwit is doing both and setting an example for a population that has been too long cowered by these greedy old fools.

“I believe Thai people nationwide know he has done so much for the country and that he has never been tainted by anything – no corruption whatsoever.”
Reminds me of Baghdad Bob-

Taksin’s family will wait for now. But it is a face losing thing for them not to be on top. They see it as they helped Pita to be where he is now so in their minds he owes them and will expect him to pass the mantle to them as a good loyal Thai would do.
What drivel.
Completely made up nonsense with zero truthful or factual content.
Why do you bother?

I can't think of a country that is democratic...
in oz its voting preferences that screw the popular voteNonsense.
Preferential voting is the fairest system there is.
What distorts things in Oz is the difference in the size of electorates (smallest 71k largest 133k). The less populated rural electorates have votes approaching double the value of their urban counterparts.

BJ has 71 seats I think, who will vote for Anutin, add to that 250 senators and we are at 321.
Anutin was part of the Thaksin camp in the past, so there may well be some PT MP's as well who vote Anutin, to get Thaksin his out of jail card
And then what?
Lose every single vote in the lower house.
Simply won’t happen.

Indeed. As I've been posting if he doesn't form a coalition he will be heading a minority government if the senate make him PM which as I see it is the only deal he'd make. He has a big decision to make and I have the feeling he'll go for a coalition with MFP. Well I hope so.
Minority government is impossible without enough votes to guarantee supply. The result, should they be foolish enough to attempt it, would be an almost immediate election - the result of which would be an even greater MF / PT victory. And it would all (cost, frustration, anger) be blamed on one man - Anutin.

I think MFP+PT+the 4 minor parties is 309 seats but yes BJT puts them over the line. Anutin will want something big in return.
Call his bluff.
Force him to choose between democracy and coups.
Whichever he opts for - he shall be marked for life.
Tell him to go ask Abhisit how it worked out for him.

Are you sure? BJT party alliance gets the coalition over the line and nullifies the 250 lackey military lackeys vote.
Yes.
MF coalition = 308 seats
BJT = 70 seats
Half (plus 1) of 750 = 376

I wish that were true, the next coup's ink will still be wet. The only way to end the cycle is to hand out severe punishments to all those officers who were involved as well as removing all their assets which I suggest might help the country out financially for years.
It turns out the only way to end the cycle is to let the military run the country under their own constitution for 9 years… their ineptness has unified the people as they have never been unified before. Next election the military vote will be even more dismal than the pathetic showing they had on Sunday.
Done and dusted.

Interesting decision ahead for Bumjaithai.
Do they side with the pro-democracy parties with their 70 seats being enough to get Pita over the threshold without a single Senators support; or do they side with the military and deny Pita and then have to face the voters at the next election as an outed pro-military party and undoubtedly lose seats?
Abhisit faced a similar choice back in 2008, he turned his back on democracy, chose the military and in doing so destroyed his career, destroyed his party and went a long way towards destroying the country.
What will Anutin do?

Abhisit? Abhisit was a pretty weak PM but he didn't destroy democracy...as we can just see it is still here....Damage was done by Thaksin, but the military repaired it and gave democracy back.

Abhisit destroyed Thai democracy and the Democrat Party with his quivering, spineless, lying and inept political career.
Pita is everything Abhisit isn’t.
Bully for Thailand.

You, at some point, are going to have to wake up and accept reality - Prayuth is gone, finito, done and dusted. You are unfortunately going to have to spend the rest of your days in Thailand suffering under democracy.

they were less corrupt than the Thaksin Mafia.....they may collect their 10% from everything....Bad enough. No one in politics is not corrupt, just the military was the lesser evil.
I would advocate for much harsher laws....The Thai military were less corrupt?
The lesser evil?

In case you haven't noticed, Pita's new party is called Move Forward.
No better way to fall further behind than making the settling of scores and vendettas a priority over good stewardship of the nation's future. Just look at US Congress for a prime example of crybaby, "You're gonna have to pay for that" politics.
A stitch in time saves nine.

Nonsense.
PTP have issued a statement they are 100% behind MF.
Your junta fantasies are just that - fantasies.
