And surly if this were to happen it would be inviting trouble back onto the streets !! Not a wise move in my book. As I have stated before, my understanding of Thai politics is limited, so no smart Alec remarks thank you ???????? See TV thread here. He recently purchased 6,000,000 shares in a media company. It is illegal for candidates to own media interests here. Then a few days ago he transferred the shares to his mother. His mother is a well to do businesswoman in here own right. https://forum.thaivisa.com/topic/1091242-thanathorn-may-be-in-trouble-over-alleged-share-holding-in-media-firm/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The key party will be BJT. Now, a FF,PT and BJT coalition would have more than 250 votes just on their own, However, a PPR, Dem and BJT coalition will still need at least 2 of the smaller parties to join them to make a majority. I would guess that Thaksin is making Newin, or whoever runs BJT now, increasingly desperate and attractive offers to join his coalition while Phrayut is busy crafting an 'offer he can't refuse'! A counter offer as it were, I am sure you also remember Prayuth's little trip to Buriram a few months ago ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBKK Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 They stacked it with 250 bootlickers to ensure they would win. Does anyone truly believe this fair? or the Army votes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An extremely stupid move in my book. Trouble t'mill if they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shares were transferred in January, before he was named as the candidate and most likely in order to MEET the rules.https://www.facebook.com/ThanathornOfficial/photos/a.384655255271488/576831106053901/?type=3&theater So yes, fake news indeed. And timed just before the ban on political discourse so he had very little chance to rebut the accusation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one does that better than than the 'other' Thai party affiliated with TS & YS. You live in a glasshouse, you don't throw rocks at others.

Really not that tough a decision for BJT to join PPRP and save his genitals from harm. After all, BJT was created to represent the military's electoral interests back in 2007. They are beholden to the military. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBKK Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 be a strange bedfellow for a pro-weed party to join the dinosaurs? PTP/FFP and BJT makes more sense but Prayut will find a way... the Army were watched when voting and the dinosaurs vote is highly inflated.

Jim7777 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I’m honestly having trouble trying to figure out exactly what’s currently going on with the election results as of right now and it’s Monday at 9:18PM. Is Thailand facing another political crisis because that’s what it’s looking like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m seriously having trouble getting the facts. Full results will be announced this Friday. Was supposed to be done today but EC delayed the announcement. However under the election law, the official result will be completed within 60 days i.e sometime in May. By then the EC will complete investigation of all complaints and issue red and yellow cards. That will be the official result that will be royally gazette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chama Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I suspect that all of the parties feel they are ready to lead the country. And since Prayuth hand picked the MPS he should have no trouble getting the 250 needed to complete the takeover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
