This is a devastating indictment not only on the coup leaders and their faux political party but on all those who enabled the junta to masquerade as an elected government.

In the last eight years a few million new voters have arrived and they will rewrite the political landscape with the virtual end of weak parties like the Democrats. The one thing the coup leaders have achieved is to show the electorate that support does not come at the end of a gun barrel nor from intimidation dressed up as legal action. Attitude adjustment has actually taken place amongst younger more thoughtful voters, but not the kind of attitude adjustment the junta attempted. It is time for the cabinet and others in this sham and incompetent parliament to start packing their bags.
