Why not cut to the chase ... we all know what the end result is
Let the guy back, give him his money back ... make him the PM
let him do everything he wants, ley him exact his revenge on all
opponents ... then another coup ... deja vue ...all over again
This country is one big merry go round .... for some reason people
think they can do the exact same thing and end up with different results

When you have been PM for 6 years, have billions of (insert any currency here), and have your sister and most family in the key positions of power in the country, you are no longer an "upstart" in anyone's book.

There is a clique of people who have been running this country for a long time, and Thaksin got onto the table as a relative new comer. While the Bunnags and the Vejjajivas were running all over the world or serving the country, Thaksin was just a speck in the eye of the future plans for Thailand. He rose fast, out of left field.

Thaksin did not get in on this clique. He was born in to it by right of decent, through both blood and money. Thaksin is more elite than most of those people on that list and was the moment he was born because of who his family was. Lots of those people are just rich people or new money, Thaksin was rich and has blood decent from aristocracy of the royal family of Chiang Mai. He had a father who was an MP, and an uncle who was an MP and a cabinet member, and another uncle who mayor of Chiang Mai. This all automatically makes him more 'elite' than all but a few in Thailand. The opposition to Thaksin had nothing to do with him not being 'elite' enough, because he was as elite as almost anyone in the country. Certainly far more elite than most of the people who oppose him. People who say Thaksin was not part of the elite are simply wrong, spectacularly so.

Right on. He and his family are only the 19th richest in Thailand. Not many above them!
If you don't, you find yourself, very quickly find yourself in Dubai. No amount of cash can buy instant acceptance at the top, not in Thailand, nor other parts of the world with similar systems. He is at best "Hi-so", not upper class.
Maybe you're unfamiliar with Thaksin's family background. He doesn't play it up because he likes to pretend to be some kind of self made man. He was born in to wealth and power, both socially and financially. Thaksin is descended from the Na Chiang Mai family on his mother's side, the former rulers of the Kingdom of Chiangmai. Thaksin is part of the elite upper class, you can not get much more elite than him. That is why Thaksin's father was able to secure a seat in parliament in Chiang Mai, and why Thaksin was so easily able to enter politics later on.

Yeah. I googled " Thai tits and arses in public video" and the first 100 hits were scenes from a Thai parliamentary debate.

Had Thaksin stayed in Thailand and faced his charges, served what ever little time they would have given him, like the red shirts are doing now because of him, none of this would have happened. No red shirts dead from all the violence, no red shirts in jail. And Thaksin could be fighting shoulder to shoulder with his red shirts, instead of playing politics from behind the curtain like a puppet master.

True, very true. I can confirm that k. Thaksin always stands very firmly behind his people, very far behind to enable multitasking like shopping in Paris at the same time

I wonder if, as youngsters, Thai people really let there hair down and have a 'bun fight'
It seems the journo's recently have been studying the comic talent of the 'Sun' in the Uk for their headline strategy.

Maybe Mr Hoy has had conversations with ex P.O.W.s regarding their treatment at the hands of the V.C.?
Bang Kwang and its ilk may not be nice places, but then again they aren't supposed to be. Prisons in some countries are rather like country clubs.
As the old saying goes "If you can't do the time...........etc"

So what does that open him up to in terms of being prosecuted for his rather long lists of charges.
Never liked this immunity for MP's anyway. All nonsense.
