According to the Pheu Thai Party, it violates Section 68 of the Constitution.

Section 68.

No person shall exercise the rights and liberties prescribed in the Constitution to overthrow the democratic regime of government with the King as Head of State under this Constitution or to acquire the power to rule the country by any means which is not in accordance with the modes provided in this Constitution.

In the case where a person or a political party has committed the act under paragraph one, the person knowing of such act shall have the right to request the Prosecutor General to investigate its facts and submit a motion to the Constitutional Court for ordering cessation of such act without, however, prejudice to the institution of a criminal action against such person.

In the case where the Constitutional Court makes a decision compelling the political party to cease to commit the act under paragraph two, the Constitutional Court may order the dissolution of such political party.

In the case where the Constitutional Court makes the dissolution order under paragraph three, the right to vote of the President and the executive board of directors of the dissolved political party at the time the act under paragraph one has been committed shall be suspended for the period of five years as from the date the Constitutional Court makes such order.

Well all they have to do is call for the peoples intervention, instead of a coup.

I reckon its fair enough to prevent a call to the army to interfere. Coups are illegal right?

I think the head-line should have read.....

Chalerm uneasy.

And just stopped there.

if Charlerm honestly believes the CC would get involved in rulung on a peaceful public protest then he has no right to be in government, it just adds more meaning to why these people are having a protest - PT are not fit for purpose and if left in office much longer will destroy Thailand, I suspect that is exactly what TS wants

Typical shallow thinking from a party that has collected the scum from a shallow gene pool.

If holding a rally to endorse a government change is illegal, why are so many of the leaders of the 2010 event party list members of PTP despite outstanding criminal charges?

While Section 68 is hardly applicable to the current peaceful protest, the inevitable comparison between it and the violence of 2010 will be highlighted, and will completely legitimise the use of RTA to disperse that insurgency.
