While Yingluck is in the UK maybe she can pick up evidence that Abhisit was a citizen of that country. Then maybe she can stop at The Hague, Netherlands to deliver that evidence to the ICC on her way back to Thailand for a certain censure vote. Game on and my money's on Yingluck.

I see you are using the old line that the best defense is an offense especially when there is no defense. Just hit the old red key on the keyboard and choose the appropriate replies i.e. but.....but.....but.....Abhisit.......the democrats.....

Disc 7
You keep sighting polls. I have asked u before if you believe that 1200 people polled out of 65 mill is an actual good picture of what people think. Also in most polls it is the question and how it is presented that influences the outcome.
Opps I forgot when they are favorable FOR YS its ok but when not you say the polls are not good :

Hopefully she won't come back. Who would miss her? Her fellow PTP politicians?

I don't think so.

Should YS be applauded ? Foreign trips are step up from inspecting klongs as an excuse to avoid Parliament.

D8 did you kiss the blarney stone too much recently. Your hero worship is blinding you to reality.

YS attempted to delegate security to Chalerm. He basically said take a hike by publicly stating he was never going down South. Despite humiliating her he is still lurking around. So much for her power.

Discussing the protracted southern unrest, she stressed that the government would use existing mechanisms in solving problems.

Those existing mechanisms result in an average of 3 people murdered and double that number being injured down South every day and her plan is to continue on. She is out of her depth and maybe the sooner Big Bro

Nobody needs to go to the South to find out what the problem is, the problem is pretty well known.

The task YS has to tackle is getting the government, military, bureaucracy and other major power groups to agree on a negotiating position that can be presented to the other side and that is a Bangkok based task, one that will probably take her several years to achieve and one best done with the minimum of publicity.
