Could be interesting especially if they've garnered support from a powerful faction within the Gov't.

So, will Bangkok be an orange zone by the to allow this debate to happen, with parliamentary numbers, and 2 meters separation etc. or Dark red zone with 5 politicians in the house. Will they have the same rules as the restaurants? If not they should be tested every day, for everyone’s safety.

When have you seen next PM been better than the previous one?

Most are taken in by this surface charade, as it might present some sort of alternative reality. 

 

Nothing but the usual perplexing Thai theatre from establishment circles.

Yes have seen. If you compare Prayut to all former PMs he was the worst Thailand ever had and thats a fact. Worst performance of a government and by the way always the couo governments crashed the economy in Thailand thats also a fact.

In comparison, how far back do you want to go?

Before making irrational conclusions and throwing around historical superlatives as well as proposed "factual" content, you might want to gather and examine some Thai historiology that could easily eclipse your opined theory. 

Prayut, and his circle, might match the nastiness, ignorance and sheer corruption practices of some past PMs, to be sure - but doesn't even come close as a menacing shadow as some PMs have displayed.

Abbhisit was ok, spineless, but ok.  Though you may prove correct this time if P is voted out, as I'm sure there's a double agent provocateur in the midst of all this.

He started out ok given the poor World economy and the excesses of Yingluck which nearly drained Gov't coffers.  After his mentor, Prem, passed away there was a fundamental change in direction which I'm sure was directed by unseen hands.

Can I remind you that the former coup government crashed Thailand so deeply that Thailand was bankrupt and the imf had to step in to give them money because as they were bankrupt there was no possibilities for loans to save Thailand. Thaksin is not a clean politicion but he brought Thailand back on their feet, first the economy and also bailed out Thailand at the imf many years earlier than the conditions were. Compared to Prayut is even Thaksin an angel and compared to his competence to the incompetent clowns now, he was an Einstein. Performance datas are facts even when we for sure want better politicians, but I only can compare with former pms and it is very clear who had the worst performances.

I know people they were against Thaksin and have supported the pdrc and they tell me now it was a big mistake and Thaksin was much better for Thailand than Prayut . I think I would prefer move forward because til now they seem more honest and they want to bring Thailand mire forward. Sure they are young but educated. And I answered like that because the question was if there was ever an better pm followed in the history.

Shadows and unspeakable I surly would not write about

even with opposition,they all have a common conflict of interest ? there be no changes,only the people can demand changes as they did with taxsin,the apathy amongst the general public is as if they given up hope after 7 years of a military government,but as we know things can be changed,by people will, is a way.
