Do you seriously think the leader of the Dem party was EVER in any danger of trouble from the courts? Stop it! You're killing me! He was at the time being threatened with the courts by the lords and ladies of misrule, because he would not play along with their attempt to give thaksin whatever he wanted. . To his credit he stood firm against them and was in danger of being gaoled due to pt’s abuse of power. I don't like the current situation any more than you do, but don’t bs me that pt were any better at not abusing power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the idea that a prominent "Yellow" has had anything to fear from the courts is ludicrous. Whether Thaksin or anyone else had threatened him with the courts was meaningless. Never going to happen. PAD leaders? Nope. Abhisit? Nope. Suthep? Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it not they, who recently lost a case over the airport occupation? My contempt for suthep has been made clear in the past. I hope he gets his deserved punishment at some point. I feel the same contempt for the shin family, especially the puppet master. None of the above care for anyone but themselves and all exploited others to get their way.

To the best of my knowledge, nothing will actually happen to them, despite the smoke and noise. It is subtle, but they seem to be weaseling out of everything. For what it is worth, I likely share the same contempt for the Shins that you do. However, my contempt for the 'Yellows' is even greater, so... I don't know of your contempt for Suthep, but I'll happily take your word for it. Let's not fight as we agree on the current situation. Rather, let's agree to disagree. Deal?

Well it seems you know better than PTP, Thakisn and their legal teams who all seemed to think they could blackmail him into supporting their Amnesty for Thaksin bill with the threat of the courts.

The distance between London and Bangkok is 9,546 kilometers (5,932 miles) "probably" (like the Heineken advert "probably the best lager in the world" ) they would win any free and fair election hence they are not allowed to return.

Thechook Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Would he actually expect the British government to hand over an elected official to a military junta and when it has been very very clear it has been a very personal agenda by the junta leader.
