Opposition MP Seripisut says Thai PM unfit to stay on

[snoop1130]

 

The opposition Thai Liberal party leader, Pol Gen Seripisut Temiyavet, said today that the government has completely failed in political reform, lacks the sincerity needed to lead political reform, and cited several examples of tainted politicians managing to get elected to parliament, only to be stripped of their parliamentary status later and rampant money politics.

 

Taking to the floor after opposition leader Chonlanan Srikaew, Seripisut said that Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha now looks like a man who is completely exhausted, physically and mentally, is barely capable of standing up and remains ill-equipped, despite his almost eight years in the position.

 

The former police chief said that the Election Commission was created by the government for its own benefit, to prolong its stay in power, and alleged that the last general election in 2019 was riddled with irregularities, adding that he was hounded by army personnel himself.

He was unfit for the position originally, let alone currently.

May be, but he got muscle behind him so deal with it!!

[thaibeachlovers]

What would any opposition politician say? Would we expect the opposition to laud the government?

 

Another nothing burger IMO.

A lot of truth in his speech, Prayut will now be out to silence him.

From the beginning, he was unfit to lead anything but a barrack full of subordinate men. This man has been a total failure as PM. Just look at the economy now. Soaring unemployment, homelessness, suicides, the exodus of expats, and the increasing unhappiness of the people. 

 

Get out. Get out now.

You said yesterday: "I will continue to fight them."

 

So is that it?

You so rarely get what I am saying. I was referring to them. Asking them to resign and get out.

Exactly! That's why he took the country at gunpoint, backed by the rest of his generals and other soldiers.

If the Thai people tried to take any action to stop this guy at the time, it would have been a massacre of the ordinary Thai people, so that alone makes him a potential murderer.

If anyone disagrees with me, please tell us what would have happened if a big contingent of Thai people tried forcibly to stop him and his army taking control of the country.

Resign? Why because you asked? When I think of Get Out -- Get Out Now I think of this:

It wasn't just the "rest of his generals" that backed him.
