Thai PM extends olive branch to anti-govt protesters

[mrtoad]

Embattled Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra today called on protesters to jointly find a resolution for Thailand but insisted she will neither resign nor dissolve Parliament.

It seems that the majority have a resolution to the problem. And that is that Ms Shinawatra resign. The only thing she will not do. How selfish is she ? Runs so strong in the family.

There is no evidence to support what you write. Therefore it is your own personal opinion.

How you can form such opinion of a woman of courage, an able lawmaker and a well educated woman that has confidence in her wisdom and tireless work for the people of Thailand.

Even you guys on the street are safe because she is the prime minister and will do everything in her power to keep you safe from an aggressive response to your own ignorance and misconduct.

If you guys get off on your testosterone driven assumptions that you actually think you know what is right for the people (all of them) then you need to get help.

Brilliant, but you forgot to put the sarcasm emotion at the end.

The people don't want an olive branch, they want her to go...

The question is why can't they raise a red short support group?

Why can;t they get people down from the provinces? The local MP's losing faith? The people don't want to come and support? All the money has gone? Why aren't he red shirts mobilising? The only way out of this is for the red's to make a massive show of support. Where are they.

And no, this bunch for Suthep don't represent "the people" any more than the reds represent 'the people". That's by the by. Thailand has chosen to change its governments by coup and protest, let them reap what they sow. Chaos every 2 years.

Partly, why should they 'raise a Red support group' they are happy with what the government is doing. Mainly because many, many Red families are at home harvesting the rice, which is still a major export crop for the country.Come off it mate, 'someone seems to be cooking the books and has been for 2 years' This country is corrupt to the core and it didn't start and wont end with Thaksin Shinawatra.

Correction; Rice- WAS the major export for the country, now screwed nicely by the fugitive and his brown-nose mates.

What is the major export now?

Bullshit and hookers.

 they will win anotehr election, if one is to be held with a similar majority to the one they have now. 

 

 

 

That's like a football commentator saying "this will be a goal, if everything happens the same way as the last one"

Great analogy Thaddeus considering he's a (sorry 'the') Millwall fan.

I think that you would have a very good career in writing obituaries.

Which makes me very angry with Abhisit. The bloke apparently has absolutely NO vision and NO balls. I mean, he was schooled at Eton and Oxford pretty much through the period of Maggie when right wing politics was the love of the world. He could have had Maggie, Reagan, Kohl, Howard or any other of his dozens of right wing politicians as his inspiration. He could stand for free markets, liberalisation, low taxes, the family, ANYTHING. Least of all he could stand for right and wrong.

But instead, what do we get? A bloke so unprincipled that he allows a bloke with a murder charge to stay in the party to avoid prosecution. He is an absolute let down, a whimp who has played the game and has absolutely no political principal at all, other than to do what is necessary to maintain the status quo of thievery and corruption in his own party.

I would suggest his education was a complete and utter waste and it has created a complete and utter poltical minnow. No Winchester appears to be far better.

You seem to forget that both Abhisit and Suthep face murder charges. Why should someone be forced to resign from a party because of an allegation when their opponent's pet pig is prepared to lay charges on command? Surely the worth of the charges is for the courts to decide.

What has his stupid murder charge got to do with my statement?

"A bloke so unprincipled that he allows a bloke with a murder charge to stay in the party to avoid prosecution."

If the accused MP had been forced to resign from the party, how could Abhisit and Suthep remain without appearing to be hypocrites? If they did resign, how long before any replacement who shows form is also falsely charged?

Huh?, that guy was charged long before abhisits crack down and is accused of shooting someone straight in the head.

Hardly comparable.

Hi

[NeverSure]

Sorry, I can't be bought with an olive branch. I need at least 500 baht. I do have my morals, you know.

Really? The accusations were made while he was a Democrat MP. The policy of the party not to fire him because of accusations has proven sound by more recent events.

BTW firing him from the party would not remove him from parliament or accelerate his case.

Don't know if it is the major export now but we have been exporting the Prime Minister a lot.
