webfact Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Thanathorn says Future Forward by-election win in Nakhon Pathom will be the beginning of the end of this government Cr Photo : FB/Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit – ธนาธร จึงรุ่งเรืองกิจ Future Forward party leader Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit said today that, if the opposition bloc wins the by-election in Constituency 5 of Nakhon Pathom on October 23rd, it will be the first domino to fall and set the stage for a change of government. The party is fielding Mr. Pairatchote Chantharakachorn to contest the by-election, while other opposition parties, including Pheu Thai, have agreed not to field candidates to avoid splitting the vote. Thanathorn and the other key party members have been in the constituency to campaign for Mr. Pairatchote. Thanathorn’s team of campaigners visited Samphran fresh market, Rai Khing Uah Arthorn housing estate, Sompob market and Punlarn market, and the Future Forward party leader told supporters that there will be more by-elections in Samut Prakan, Kamphaeng Phet and, probably, two constituencies in Nakhon Ratchasima.

This is what an opposition should sound like. You can be that Prayut and Toady will call for an investigation about this. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post hotchilli Posted September 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 30, 2019 Nakhon Pathom is my neck-of-the-woods.... local people are sick and tired of the present PM This province most definitely is not a rich Bangkok, it is a rural market town, pig & chicken breeders, and large agriculture farmers who have been hit hard by him over the last five years, walk around the local markets in any area and they will say they same as will the small shop owners & roadside vendors. The opposition parties playing on one team is a good idea... they will get the local vote . 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holy cow cm Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I believe they will now go for the jugular to oust the FFP group to disband them. There is no way the current honest elected government who won fair and square will relinquish the power. There is no way and pigs will fly first as they will just use the Military under a National Security theme saying it is in the best interest for the Thai people.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Er, just bull <deleted>! Should get a bigger vote, as PTP aren't fielding a candidate and presume most of their voters last time will switch to FFP. Then they'll claim a landslide!

It's called gathering "political momentum" to rouse a broader base of support for the Future. No one sees a molehill but a mountain can't be ignored.

He is indirectly warning ahead of this election that the EC will again try to cheat in this by-election as they did in another Nakhon Pathom constituency by crediting the wrong votes to the Dem. He is calling out for a good voters turnout and win big to send a message to this government that their days are numbered. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a route that has been visibly and definitively closed to the Thai people ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
