Parliament to miss lots of spices

 

 

Due to the fact that the Pheu Thai Party is not getting MPs from the proportional system, the post-election Parliament will miss a big number of veterans who are on its party list. Chalerm Yoobamrung, Snoh Thienthong, Bokhin Palakula and Plodprasop Surasawadee are among them.

 

Unless something big happens in the counting of the remaining 5 per cent of votes cast on Sunday, Sudarat Keyuraphan and Bhumtham Wecchayachai, who are high on the party list, will miss it too. Veteran Pongthep Thepkanchana will almost definitely miss it like Chalerm, Snoh and Plodprasop.

 

Currently, Pheu Thai leader Viroj Pao-in who tops the party list is also sweating heavily. Other big names dropping like flies include Adisorn Piengkiet, Prayut Siripanich, Noppadol Pattama and Kittirat na Ranong.

This article is a bit fishy. I expected a bit more meat in it. Instead I am left wondering why these people are referred to as spices. Maybe nuts would be more appropriate. Anyway, it seems that they are in a bit of a pickle now. Could it be that they are merely getting their just desserts?

Like we should shed a tear that a thug like Charlem is no longer an MP. This new system is a blessing as it led to the rise of parties like future forward.
