Thaksin tells Thailand's red shirt opposition - 'play dead'... for now

[JAG]

Wow, any headline with Thaksin is like a red rag to the TV frothers!

Thing that really irks them is that they know what he said is true; when finally an election is permitted the people will simply reiterate the same message. We want Thaksin!

Some people. A minority of the population and electorate.

Actually, it is the majority of the electorate who have voted the PTP into power in every election for the last 9 years. No amount of nitpicking will alter that fact.

I suppose if you keep telling yourself enough, you will believe it......by the way, in case you missed it, just before Yinglucks Government was kicked out, a poll was taken on this subject with the result indicating a sound defeat of the "redshirts" if an election was held

Obviously the army and their backers missed it as well, or maybe they weren't prepared to risk it? Edited September 23, 2015 by JAG
