I am sure you will agree! Yes, he is a most honourable man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a democratically elected member of the lower house has no right to question the selection process of the senate? In exactly the same way as democratically-elected members of the House of Commons have no right to question the selection process of the House of Lords back the UK. So not peculiar to Thailand.

So not peculiar to Thailand.Are senators in the uk appointed by the person that got into power via a coup? I am also guessing they do not get to vote on who becomes the PM either. This situation is very peculiar to Thailand. Suggesting that it is simular to the british system is ludicrous Sent from my SM-J730F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
