Pheu Thai party secretary-general Anudit Nakhontap has blamed proxy voting by Government MPs for the delay in the disbursement of the national budget for 2020 fiscal year, and has urged the Government to take punitive action against the perpetrators.

 

He insisted that Opposition parties did not play political games to delay the disbursement, as alleged by some elements in the Government camp, and has demanded an investigation into the alleged malpractice.

 

“How can the people trust them to run the Government if leaders of the two main parties do not know who cast the votes on behalf of the missing MPs?” Anudit asked.

trust them to run the government ..... 555

Perhaps he can remind us of the action the PTP government took when some of their MP's were caught on video voting for not present colleagues?

 

This government hasn't resorted to sending opposition parties home saying that the vote will be tomorrow and then rushing to vote whilst no opposition there as PTP also did when in government.

 

How short the memories of PTP politicians are!

Shut up, Anudit!

 

Your party committed exactly the same thing (i.e. proxy voting) while you were in government. And on more than one occasion, too.

Not gonna happen - Will never happen - Unlikely to ever happen.

Yes but that is what all these politicians do, attack their enemies and protect their own. Its just so sickening to see this. But Prayut is just as bad doing all the things he attacked  others about. 

 

I like future forward so far the only party that is not bad but I can understand the Thais having no faith in politics when all sides do the same dirty tricks.

So why was there a coup, then? So they could just copy and do the same? Two wrongs don't make a right. 

 

The CC already ruled before when politicians were voting by proxy. They have already set a precedent. We can't change the past, but we can learn from it and set good examples. Do you want there to be another coup where it's just rinse and repeat - or do you want things to actually change for the better? 

 

These politicians should be kicked out. The coalition has no one else to blame but themselves.
