The main opposition Pheu Thai Party is intentionally avoiding parliament sessions to force a house dissolution. But another opposition party, the Move Forward Party told Thai Enquirer on Tuesday that the tactic is misguided.

 

Two parliament meetings were canceled last week because there were not enough parliamentarians attending them. 

 

“We wanted the Prime Minister to dissolve the parliament and return the power back to the Thai people,” Julapun Amornvivat, a member of parliament for the Pheu Thai Party, told Thai Enquirer on Tuesday.

One would hope so.

This government won the election using underhanded tactics and should not deserved decency in toppling them.

Future Forward Party: "People will lose confidence inthe system in the long term." Isn't nine decades (1932-2021) with 13 successul military coups long enough to NOT have any confidence?

Relying on undemocratic governments to dissolve the Parliament to trigger a national election through mere political discourse is a fantasy.

PM Prayut is on record that he won't consider a national election. As such he needs some political "pain" to think otherwise. Not getting his legislation passed is not a good public optic.

What opposition? [the term repeated ad nauseam]

Quite the disguised puppetry that they promote.
