webfact Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Charter court refuses to lift Thanathorn’s duty suspension order Future Forward party leader Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit has been dealt yet another blow with the Constitutional Court rejecting his plea to rescind an earlier court’s order suspending him from performing his duties as an MP. According to the Constitutional Court’s bulletin, released today (Wednesday), the court had not found any change in behavior on the part of Mr. Thanathorn that would justify the court lifting the suspension. The court suspended Thanathorn pending a ruling on a case in which he is accused of holding media shares at the time he registered his electoral candidacy.

EDIT: Clicksave for others Quote The court suspended Thanathorn pending a ruling on a case in which he is accused of holding media shares at the time he registered his electoral candidacy. The court considered Thanathorn’s case regarding the legal procedure, including which witnesses should be summoned to testify, documentary evidence and whether witnesses should be subjected to an inquiry. The court also considered the parliamentary membership status of 33 MPs, also accused of holding media shares, and agreed to accept, for further consideration, the cases of 22 MPs who were given 15 days to respond to the accusations. One case concerning Mr. Wutthinan Boonchu was dismissed by the court.

Popular Post Puchaiyank Posted September 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2019 the court had not found any change in behavior on the part of Mr. Thanathorn. There in lies the problem...Mr. Thanathorn dares to challenge the status quo...maybe some jail times and being barred from politics for life can clear this up...???? 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rkidlad Posted September 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) I said before that he’d be suspended and they’d drag it on for as long as they could. No need to officially ban him and risk the wrath of the public. Just keep him suspended until they can trump up a better case to charge him with. New dizzying heights of corruption and abuse of power. Edited September 4, 2019 by rkidlad 7 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eligius Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) The court has found 'no change in behaviour on the part of Thanathorn'. Says it all. The only time the Thai Powers That Be will possibly accept Thanathorn into the fold is if he does a 1984-style grovel and prostration before them at their very feet and declares, with tears in his eyes: 'I LOVE Big Brother'. But even then - they probably would not let him get within an inch of real power. He is potentially far too dangerous to them. As things stand, however, Thanathorn is absolutely powerless - without the active help of the millions and millions of Thai people. I've given up waiting for that one to become a reality ...!

In fact there must be regular opportunities to challenge the PM and his gang, and it surprises me that either the PT folks or FF folks haven't already screamed 'foul'. Or are they waiting for a big fish to be caught on a big item to cause the most possible embarrassment to the PM and his gang. Just wondering if / whenlack of action/ poor action re the economy could be tried, or would it be better to aim for an even bigger slip up re policies / laws etc?

They are busy taking pictures of their food. Why is the Thai electorate so inactive in the face of massive, incredible crimes by the faux-elite? Because they don't care ENOUGH - and en masse are not a valiant, warrior people. Simple as that. Now, let's take that next selfie of me and my 'delicious' lunch. Everyone has simply got to see this photo - otherwise the entire nation of Thailand and Thai life will collapse and lapse into eternal and unendurable boredom and pointlessness...!
