Hopefully , until the current crop of senators reach the end of their tenure next year. Then take a vote for PM without their blocking interference.

I hear this often, but nobody explains what happens when senate is dissolved, can the people currently ruling just appoint another bunch of cronies or not? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer to your question see below. The Junta would have to somehow amend the Constitution to reinstate the Senate's voting power to elect a PM. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very reason that the Junta will have to be in power this time so they can reinstate the Senators so their hold on politics continues. Surely the coalition of MFP and Co know this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the coalition of MFP and Co know this. They can certainly try to re-instate them. That will be interesting. It will make good "news"........and read very well in the history books. I'm sure "MFP and Co" know that. ???? Edited July 26, 2023 by Enoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These so called leaders of "Even more wonderful Thailand" couldn't even pick their own noses, or a "p**s up" in a brewery!!! They are not bothered. They own the (only two) breweries. This game presents them with just what they want. The selection of a prime minister and government resulting from the General Election they lost over two months ago postponed indefinitely, any movement in the hands of the court which they control. Laughing all the way to their ( overseas) banks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 The MF party was not wise enough to leave article 112 alone until they were firmly in power. One would think that an educated bunch of people would just focus on getting themselves elected and approved by all the powerful people of Thailand, then maybe get a few things changed. Sadly the younger Thais do not have patience these days. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throughout the first twenty years of this century elected governments have been repeatedly removed, and elections denied, by these "powerful people". Two months (more) ago some 66% of the electorate emphatically rejected the rule of the " powerful people" and here we are, they are again frustrating the election. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "younger" Thais know the game these days thanks mainly to the 'net etc. They understand that tomorrow they could be looking at the wrong end of a army gun through no fault of their own. They will never be "approved" by the powerful people of Thailand. Too much of a threat to the established envelope passers.???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what they are afraid of along with MFP's frightening poularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
