Thai election
As I'll be in the UK for Christmas, I'll miss the Thai election, which will be on 23rd December, though I can't vote anyway as I'm still a UK citizen.
My only hope is that PPP leader Samak Sundaravej, a dinosaur who oozes corruption and contempt, doesn't become the next Prime Minister. With the current climate of musical chairs (politicians changing allegiancies on a daily basis), anything is possible. (Though Sonthi and Pallop will not be candidates, which is some consolation.) If I could vote, it would be for the Democrats, and their leader Abhisit Vejjajiva.
Samak's PPP is basically a reincarnation of Thaksin's dissolved TRT.
