The party of gangsters and leeches and Article 112

The Nation reports that Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has pledged that the Bhum Jai Thai Party, is committed “to protecting Thailand’s sovereignty and monarchy.”

He emphasized his steadfast position on defending the monarchy, saying, “We will protect our royal institution with our lives. There will never be any change to the lese-majesty law, Section 112, or any amendment to the constitution that jeopardises our monarchy.”

The People’s Party, which has said it will not change Article 112, responded on Anutin’s effort to spur jingosit voting, sensed electoral desperation, with Rangsiman Rome, the party’s deputy leader “saying that true patriotism means not cheating the nation.”

Rangsiman seems on the money. Anutin’s gangster party is full of bloodsucking leeches who will do anything for bags of taxpayer-funded  loot. That said, his party should continue to consider 112 as a bad law that needs to be changed.
