Yingluck changes strategies with the political seasons

[Baerboxer]

Sounds like little missy doesn't like it when she cannot control everything and justice is finally breathing down her pitiful spineless neck.

A little cross section of justice over a couple of months under Prayut's government this year.

12^th of January - The Election Commissioner (EC) on Wednesday decided to throw out several complaints made against alleged election misconducts by former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra during the most recent general election in February, 2014. Of course yingluck was happy with the justice system here. It suited her agenda.

13^th of January - The Administrative Court on Thursday dismissed a lawsuit filed by 28 Bangkok and Nakhon Pathom residents against former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra in which they demanded compensation for damages from alleged mismanagement of floodwaters by her government in 2011. Of course yingluck was happy with the justice system here. It suited her agenda.

21^st of January - Former Pheu Thai MP Karoon Hosakul was granted bail after he was found guilty of defaming former Democrat MP Taenkhun Chit-isara

22^nd of January - The Criminal Court on Thursday acquitted two former ministers and a member of the Pheu Thai party of defamation charges lodged against them by former finance minister Korn Chatikavanich

27^th of January - Jatuporn bailed after receiving a two year jail sentence for defaming a former premier in comments made in 2009.

10^th of March - Maj Gen Chamlong Srimuang, Sonthi Limthongkul and eight other leading members of the People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) were on Tuesday indicted by the prosecution in the Dusit District Court for staging a rally in 2011 over the Preah Vihear temple dispute

24^th of March - The Criminal Court on Tuesday sentenced a Democrat MP and his wife to 17 years in jail for appropriating and possessing state land in Kanchanaburi province without permission.

25^th of March - Yingluck has been cleared of any wrongdoing for her trips to the northern and northeastern provinces in 2014.

26^th of March - The Criminal Court today dropped a libel suit filed against the former chief of the DSI, Tarit over the construction of police stations nationwide.

All of thee cases finding the PTP or reds innocent while Demq's were found guilty. The list goes on and on and on. yingluck has a selective memory. Justice is served when it suits her agenda.

"because everything goes according to what this government wants"

Ironically the shoe is on the other foot now. Maybe yingluck can understand how the majority felt under her "Democratic" government.

The EC told the previous govt not to hold elections on 2 Feb because they will fail. The previous government didn't listen. The previous government got what they wanted.

IMF told the previous government to stop rice scheme otherwise it will fail. The previous government didn't listen. The previous government got what they wanted.

DEM's told the previous government to stop amnesty otherwise it will fail. The previous government didn't listen. The previous government got what they wanted.

The constitution dictated the previous government should have stopped the 2.2 trillion baht infrastructure loan. The previous government didn't listen. The previous government got what they wanted.

Democracy demanded that water hearings be held and transparent. The previous government didn't listen. The previous government got what they wanted.

So everything seemed to go according to what the previous government wanted and under this government the majority of court cases ruled in favour of reds and PTP ministers.

yingluck is reminiscent of a cockroach that is cornered and about to face the toxic spray of accountability. In her death throws she is spewing anything to win this public support hoping that support has selective memories or short term memories, but unless she is able to bribe them again with unsustainable policy then I cannot see that strategy working. Public support does not mean you are innocent. It means you are popular. Unless your a PTP supporter.

Going by yinglucks last FB post with 190 000 "likes" compared to Abhisit's with 2100 "likes" that will certainly reinforce to the PTP supporters that yingluck is way more "innocent" that Abhisit is!!

"Maybe yingluck can understand how the majority felt under her "Democratic" government."

You mean the majority who voted her government into power?

"The EC told the previous govt not to hold elections on 2 Feb because they will fail."

And exactly why did the elections fail? Why aren't elections being held today Mr djjamie when the fair and scientifically astute Dusit polls tell us that Uncle Too enjoys an overwhelming support among the population he so gracefully relived of the troublesome burden to vote?

"You mean the majority who voted her government into power?"

Start your argument with a lie and you've lost it already.

The elections failed because:

a) They were held during mass protests and with the capital city under emergency law. People would die and they knew it - but they needed an excuse to cling to power whilst still sending their terrorists to murder protesters.

There was no opposition.

c) Despite all that and over 90% of polling booths open, they still only polled around 30%.

Decent people had had enough. What about you ?.

"The elections failed because:

John, I know you have a very selective memory but the protests were (according to your good friend Suthep) orchestrated by himself in collusion with the "PM" as an excuse for the coup. You also have forgotten which side physically blocked people from voting booths because they disapproved of the choice made again and again by the majority of the electorate, John.

"b) There was no opposition."

Don't know what that means, John - doesn't make sense.

"c) Despite all that and over 90% of polling booths open, they still only polled around 30%."

Don't know where you get the numbers from, John. As usual what you present as "facts" are more than a little suspect.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter. The people of Thailand should have been allowed to vote and, if they so chose, to oust YL in a legal and constitutional manner and not with the barrel of a gun. Simple as that, John.

"Decent people had had enough. What about you ?"

Please re-read my comment above, and slowly this time.

Yes, the people of Thailand should have been allowed to vote. In an election organized and approved by the EC. They told Yingluck it wouldn't work in the circumstances of that time.

Yingluck ignored them (no doubt under instruction from her caddy) and pressed ahead. PTP were desperate to cling on to power at any cost. They had killed all the versions of the Amnesty Bill, apart from the one that was illegally amended to favor Thaksin and wanted to be in power so they could rubber stamp it into law as soon as it was returned to the lower house. With a new mandate they could have secured more loans for the rice scheme and got their hands on the 2.2 trillion - which would probably have been subject to the same accounting and transparency implemented on the rice scheme i.e. bugger all.

However, none of that has anything to do with Yingluck supporting the legal system when it finds in her favor or suits her agenda and condemning it when it doesn't.

Being fair means following the legal system, such as it is, not trying to appeal to the "court of public opinion" with a few crocodile tears and some FB page written by her PR team.

All she has to do is show how she wasn't negligent in her responsibilities as PM and Chair of the rice scheme (self appointed). That would mean producing meeting minutes, following the actions and understanding the steps she took as Chair to address any concerns or irregularities, lack of transparency and apparent lack of management accounts. Seemingly she prefers to squeal "it's unfair, why me, I'm innocent" - so show your actions and the court can judge accordingly.

what a nonsense comes off an insane brain

It didn't come from him, bar a few words. It is one of his usual copy and paste jobs he has passed off as his own. How he is allowed to get away with it I don't know, but such is life...

"I AM not in a position to demand anything - even justice - because everything goes according to what this government wants. The government must decide what the public stands to gain from ordering me to pay civil liability."

Well - I think the public stands to gain getting their money back!

Plus, the good people of Thailand see their country a step closer to justice forcing respect, by all, for the rule of law and see that tricky, immoral fake politicians get charged and face punishment. Call it progress.
