According to some posters here on TV the stadium was already full since day one.

But Chaturon said Yingluck "is trying to work very hard to show independence from her brother".

100% agree! It's just a show.

Yingluck's only purpose is to fool the people by creating smoke screens. The last 2 years have proven that her nr1 policy is facilitating her own family in order to steel money from the country, She is a lying disgrace. I hope karma will deal with this sneaky lady.

The Sydney Morning herald has got it wrong! Yingluck has stated many times that she has no involvement in the amnesty bill.

Yingluck survives no-confidence vote with 297 votes of support

BANGKOK: -- Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra Thursday comfortably survived the no-confidence vote with 297 coalition MPs voting in her support.

A total of 134 opposition MPs voted against her while five MPs abstained.

The vote was held at 9:56 am.

-- The Nation 2013-11-28

In a working democracy own party MPs don't blindly vote for their own people.

I wonder how much Mr. T paid him to say that….

These kind of statements is the fuel the anti-government protestors needed. Spoiled kid Jatuporn's patience is running out.

Another standard statement.......

Let's see Adul. Weekend is coming up.

This is really going to hurt the sale of the ER6N. More power, more cylinders, same price and.........it's a Honda.

It is a principle question: he is a journalist and apart from being opinionated he has done nothing wrong, as far as we know.

So why is it even remotely okay, to single him out and act against him.

It even doesn't matter if he had his face smashed to porridge or just a scratch on the chin: this is not right!

Period!

I do not even dare to imagine, what an uproar we would be having here, if the shoe was on the other foot!

I don't even care, if he was a journalist or just an Average Joe at the rally.

As long as you don't do anything...

IMO you forgot to add the word controversial here and there

Does she actually understand the real and growing gravity of what's going on outside her bullet proof window?

She is a puppet. She doesn't need to.

As long as no Thaksin family and/or friend stand in the election, it should be acceptable.

BTW, half of the MPS should be "selected" for the check and balance purposes.

Well at least you're being honest (as opposed to the current protester leaders).... you want a dictatorship with a few MPs elected as window dressing.

That would only make things worse (IMHO), in the same way the last coup only made things worse.

How did the last coup make things worse?

Did she already apologize for trying to whitewash her brother? Since that has started the protests it would be a very appropriate first thing to do.

The last 2-1/2 years seem to have taken their toll, now wouldn't you think so?

You're looking a bit stressed in that photo, YL - better get yourself off to the hair dresser and beauty therapist quick smart. - don't worry about parliament you won't be missed and anyway we can cover for you.

Having a few agendas is not easy, even for a Shin.

It was reported many times in ASTV and during PAD protest (the one that seize the airports) that Thaksin gave the 4.6 sq km and the temple to Hun Sen in exchange for his personal gain in oil & gas reserves under the disputed Thai Cambodia sea territories. Chevron was also involved.

Please take it with a a grain of salt, as it is from ASTV/PAD.

And if it's not coming from those 2 sources?

What do you expect a bunch of notorious liars to say....

According to plan. If the police (tries to) arrests him, hell will break loose.

Nick highlighted himself by arguing with the guards, an act of stupidity and arrogance. "Mr. Nostitz said he was arguing with the protest guards when he was spotted by former Democrat MP Chumpon Junsai, who pointed his finger to Mr. Nostitz, accused him of being a "Redshirt reporter", and urged the crowd to evict him from the protest site."

However, like you said "there are good and bad in all", "Some volunteer guards of the protest were seen trying to defend Mr. Nostitz, while others tried to charge at him, before a group of police officers intervened and rescued him from the crowd."

NN's posts in here always showed a degree of bias, despite his claims to the contrary.

If this incident played out as quoted above, he has gone beyond a journalist with a hint of bias, to an antagonist with an agenda.

Luckily for him, he didn't walk in to the tiger cage with a pork chop, he walked in to the rabbit warren with a carrot.

I expect that the larger of his bruises will be on his ego.

I'm wondering about the

"Speaking to our correspondent later, Mr. Nostitz said he was arguing with the protest guards when he was spotted by former Democrat MP Chumpon Junsai, who pointed his finger to Mr. Nostitz, accused him of being a "Redshirt reporter", and urged the crowd to evict him from the protest site. The photojournalist was promptly assaulted by the crowd."

I thought photojournalists would be wise not to argue while trying to cover a protest?

We don't know, what he "argued" about, do we?

...oh...I better stop now, before I get accused of defending the "Reds" again...

I agree. Let's wait for Nick's side of the story. After our self proclaimed street politics expert has recovered from his injuries he might kindly share his experience here on TV.

These little Hondas must be the cheapest way to move around....ever!
