On the campaign trail Settha said he would resign if PT joined up with either Prayuth's or Pravit's party. PT leader, Dr Cholanan, ( spelling maybe dodgy) , said he would resign as leader if PT joined with either party 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a tv screen shot put up very soon after the election of 3 possible variations. You can discount the first. The second is without MFP. The 3rd is without MFP and PT.

The Thai army fortunately kicked out the army of Tiktokers. As usual the conservative representative looks a little tired. So it looks like the title of this topic is right. Thaksin will control the country from Dubai. (And the king stayed long time in Germany I believe.) But what monopolies does MFP want to break? Governmental or private?

No vote until after the deadbeats in the Bentstate are gone. Prayuth's reign of terror will go down as the biggest disaster in the history of Thailand. No wait.

They have an MoU. I believe that's some sort of legally binding document. I have one with an incredibly nasty neighbour, witnessed by the deputy chief of a provincial police force. We're to cease trying to murder and otherwise annoy each other. There's no way either of us can just walk away from it. So.... Any clues anybody?

Has there been amendments to the constitution that i am unaware of/ According to section 109 of the constitution the outgoing Senators remain in position untill the new senators are appointed. There is also the issue the opposition can nominate a candidate. The longer time passes the more apathy will encumber the population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thailandsgreat Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) I have not followed Thai politics before. But the system seems complicated and alliances shift so the politicians can appoint any PM almost regardless of the election result.
