A political group gathered in front of the Constitutional Court today (Tuesday) to protest against the Election Commission’s (EC) submission of Pita Limjaroenrat’s shareholding case to the Court.

 

The group, called “June 24 Democracy”, also submitted a petition to the Court’s president against the Court’s accepting for consideration whether Pita and his party’s election campaign promise to amend the lèse majesté law could be considered an attempt to overthrow the country’s democratic system of government with the King as head of state.

 

Somyot Prueksakasemsuk, leader of the group, expressed doubt over the EC’s real intention in the shareholding case and whether it is being neutral in its handling of the matter.

Yep, what that guy said! you don't need to be Sherlock Holmes to see through that particular subject

 

The EC/CC like all other arms of the establishment are there for one reason and one reason only and it is nothing to do with democracy...

EC & CC neutral... never.

Thailand's conservative and anti-democratic elite shows again the true face. Democracy is just a nice word for them to lure the international public. In reality they show no respect to the will of people which is strongly against the dictatorshop of the army and the monarchists. I am quite sure there will be protests and problems coming with this behavior. Not respecting the will of 80 percent of the population will end in a disaster.
