Saturday morning with the Prime Minister or a representative. Now that would really be like going back in time, one and a half year or so. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is muttering under breath and a violent jabbing of the 'Off' button at my place. Funny thing is,the Thai contingent of the baboon family are staunch yellows, which says a lot about his broadcasting abilities... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costas2008 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Most of you do not speak or understand a word in Thai. So, please cut the BS you are giving me about the Prime Minister and his speeches as you never understood anything he ever said. Just spilling nonsense on TVF doesn't make you look clever but quite the opposite. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyLew Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 in other words he is tired of trying too bring happiness to the people Instead he will concentrate on article 44 and trying to keep a hold of power for as long as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you would take a moment to take your tongue out of P's arse, you would know that the speeches are put into English subtitles. We do know what is being said each evening.

Popular Post ldiablo Posted March 31, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) Costas just because a person cannot understand Thai does not mean that they can't understand the English subtitles that accompany his boring program but I suppose you can't read English.

JOC Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 With the new catch 44, sorry article 44 in place, there is no need for Mr p to explain anything to anyone!! Imagine the powers of the legislative, the executive and the judiciary branches in the hands of a bad tempered and poorly educated man!! Indeed a scary thought!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixdoglover Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 OK, now that we agree there are subtitles... I was hoping the PM would make his speeches longer. After all, Fidel Castro used to drone on for 6 hours or more. But seriously, the PM is way overexposed. I would advise him to limit his public appearances to 2 or 3 appearances each week. Cutting ribbons. Planting trees. Awarding certificates to schoolchildren. That sort of thing. And no extemporaneous comments, Mr Prime Minister! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly, your sprouting at the mouth nonsense makes you look like a simple plebian. Thirdly, I will have a Thai speaking competition with you any day of the week. simple plebian. I only have a Grade 10 education so can someone explain to me what this is? Is it like an Octogenerian, Crustacens or simply put an old fart. If it is the latter well thats me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's suggested you might be 'pleps', part of the common people. Somehow that suggest a somewhat elite-like attitude from that devil.
