So far really enjoying the Zack Snyder justice league movie. There are just some fatal flaws built in to the characters and the movie that can’t be overlooked. Regardless, it’s much better than the Whedon movie. This is actually a good movie.
So can we already move on and let Pita form his government already? What’s with these endless delays? iTV and a whole bunch of other nonsense. Thaksin lost. Be grateful.
The Gau Rakshaks only ever cared about beating Muslim farmers to their deaths. Meanwhile…. the beef trade continues.

Police customs and animal quarantine officials seized 29 tonnes of frozen beef, illegally imported from India through Laos from a container truck on a highway in the Borabue district of the north-eastern province of Maha Sarakham on Saturday. Read more at thaipbsworld.com/29-tonnes-of-f

Not per se. The EC has to endorse Sunday’s results within 60 days first (so max mid-July), then the new parliament has to convene within 15 days to elect a new Speaker, who then schedules a PM vote (usually a week later). A new govt might be sworn in by August.

The silent force did rise up. The move forward party did much better than expected.

Random thought: You know, members the parties of the past coaltion, namely @PPRPofficial and @utn_official, kept talking about a “silent force” rising up on #ThaiElection23 day. But it’s evident “silent”-anything doesn’t create any echoes… #เลือกตั้ง66 #นายกคนที่30

Also, this is the first election since Thaksin absorbed the Phalang Dharma Party in the year 1999/2000 and formed Thai Rak Thai, that his party is not winning the overall vote.

Also the third largest party in terms of combined vote helped legalize weed in this country. This isn’t the Thailand I grew up in It’s much better. The future is bright.

The party winning the overall vote, second in proportion and first in winning district parliamentarians, former leader of the opposition, is winning the race so far. Given that they are more conservative compared to the Future Forward party, will Phuea Thai form a government?

The preliminary results from the #ThaiElection23 Talk about a desire for change. The leading party (in terms of proportional vote for parties) is the party openly asking for monarchy reform and advocating for the political prisoners in jail for Lese Majeste.
