PM Yingluck insists no resignation, no dissolution of Parliament

[philw]

She offered to resign if it would solve the crisis, Suthep said he doesn't accept it. Why are people on here tearing Yinluck's head off ? Maybe their reason is utterly clouded by their bias ?

No maybe..........

Definite.

[philw]

She's wearing her Army clobber now. She must mean business!

She looks rougher than something found in Nana car park after midnight.

Whats that like then ??

Ain't been there meself, can you tell us ?

Got any pics............????

What a terrible liar! So first you would step down and dissolve the parliament. Now of course not. Nor that you would express apologies about anything done on behalf of your big brother.

Suthep get back in the ring and get the scalp of that silly girl. Now there should be no pitty. Let's fight her!

That's a No. 2 civil service 'khakis' dress uniform.

The civil service have a uniform?

They have several.

The Kamnan from Surat made it clear that he wants to install his people's council even if Yingluck resigns and calls a snap election.

If I am Yingluck I also wouldn't resign but I do would talk next time to foreign TV channels with an English translator.

Under no way will the Armed Forces listen to someone like Suthep. My guess is in February or March next year will be another Election and the Democrats will loose more votes. Banharn will be back at the Chat Thai as the leader and we might even hear something from Chavalit that he wants to help the country move forward. Then lets not forget that Wan Muhammad Noor Matha might also return back to politics in the near future and he should be able to take at least 3-5% from the Democrat Party in the South in the next election.

Then their is the Chartthaipattana Party with the adviser being Banharn. Since the 5 years are gone I suspect that Chart Pattana and Chart Thai might split once again to go out for the votes who canvassed most of the votes to be the key in the next coalition. Then their is the Newin Group.

Also looking at the the demonstration I think 70% are Southerners but the democrats should still do well in the South and Bangkok but due to demographics it is not enough. The only election they won was after Suchinda but thanks to Suthep, Chuan had to call snap elections due to allegations we all know off.

I am looking forward for the next elections either in 2015 or early next year but the winner is now clear already. In Isaan they have a dislike for the Democrat Party but the news mentioned 24 hours that Suthep was linked to the Democrat Party and they will ooose dearly in the North and Northeast plus on top comes up the old-timers that come back in politics, which very much means Democrats 35% plus opposition maybe another 5% and coalition 60%.

The rice scheme is still cheaper then what my government in Germany spends on bailing out the Greeks and the European banks and the economy in the Northeast is booming and has been booming for a long time already.

As a closing point for me politics has been a drama for most of my last 24 years in Thailand but I am just an observer and something is different with the Thaksin family clan as they always have more people's behind them as the democrats, also the democrats have stronger financial backers.

Back to the buffet!

As for financial backers, the democrats may have the Thai banks behind them but PTP have Wall Street. The problem is, they can't get Wall Street in (Queen) past the military (rooks / knights) and the people (pawns of both colours) as things stand.

I don't care what you say, I love a woman in uniform and she isn't a bad sort either.

Oze, don't let your 'little brain' overrule you 'big brain'. It's just the hormones talking to you.

[rametindallas]

So she's flip flopping as usual.

First she's willing to resign and dissolve parliament and now she won't. Yeah we've come to expect this kind of dishonesty from her family and her brother's government.

Well, how many times (296?) have we heard from her brother that he's going to wash his hands off politics? I think flip-flopping is a deeply ingrained, time-honored Shinawatra family trait. Therefore we shouldn't be surprised about Yingluck's bungee-cord antics either.

At a certain point, one has to stop referring to such behavior as 'flip flopping' and call it what is really is: lying.

If you don't know about Nana's reputation, then there is no way on earth the same person would have the slightest clue about Thai politics.
