Thaksin has always had a hard line on drugs, as in his murderous war on drugs. It will be interesting to see, if Anutin puts up a stand, as Thaksin is going to need his 71 seats soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The horse has bolted on that one. Too many big players and too much money involved now. Nothing any of these politicians say can be believed. A ship of self serving lying fools. It is Thailand and all that matters is money. Thaksin has been going to return for how many years? Nothing will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Step 1: Disband MFP; Step 2: PT, BJT and PP form a new coalition and put the Toadster up for the PM job (PT: sorry folks we tried everything but had no choice but look, its not all bad, we are still part of the government and will help you), Step 3: Senate approves Toad, Step 4: Tony is allowed home and babadabing thats all folks. Their ability to plan, manoeuvre, manipulate and deceive to achieve this outcome is astonishing. Fear and greed are truly powerful drivers. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Promise all that, get into power, and then reject all that. The public will understand the tactics and what's actually going on. PT and FF need to start playing like the dinosaurs. It does no good to choose the high road if you never get in the driver's seat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prawit is the sentimental favorite, payback for his years of suppression, and has climbed to the top of leaderboard significantly today. PTP will have to give up the PM, but will demand significant troughage in return for laying down. Bonus: Thaksin gets a Royal Pardon and can return home, unscathed, in this two-player deal with management. MFP will need to be erased, using the "Law", "Courts" and "a commission or two".

Prawit is not politically acceptable. It would look like the Junta is again in power. I am also not sure he is well perceived at the top. Anutin has less stains and better fits the image of a 'compromise' PM. Thaksin also doesn't need Prawit to get a pardon.
