Popular Post Ben Zioner Posted September 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) Will all depend on the "on the job learning" ability of the rookie PM. Greed within the ruling alliance will play a role too. And at the end of the day a 300 seats win by MFP would trigger an immediate take over by the Army. And back to square one.

There has been a view (since May) that the time for military coups has passed, a younger generation simply won't put up with the b/s any longer etc etc. We shall see but - for our own (powerless) sakes & mental health - we should remain optimistic. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jippytum Posted September 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2023 no doubt they will get a majority again. However many of their top people have been banned because of legal issues. They have time before the next election to be more prepared and get all their ducks in a row. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retarius Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Somehow I doubt this. MF will lose momentum in the next 4 or 5 years. If they represent a danger in gaining 300 seats they will have all sorts of dirt heaped upon them in the next 4 or 5 years, not to mention all sorts of phoney scandals and law fare from the CC et al. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoshowJones Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 As long as there are soldiers around in Thai "politics" there will never be any need for a general election, The ordinary Thai persons vote will not mean a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMojoRisin Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Plausible target. It would be expected that the Pheu Thai vote will be significantly reduced by the time of the next election as they have committed the same sin as the Democrats did under Abhisit - betrayed their core supporters in return for power. Ultimately, it will be the economic situation at the time of the next election that will determine whether or not enough Thais vote for revolutionary change under Move Forward.
