How do you solve problem like Move Forward?

14 Sept 02:45 Key points summarised by AI

Pheu Thai confronts a major dilemma in forming a government coalition, as Move Forward's unwavering stance on Article 112 obstructs support from senators and other parties for Pheu Thai's PM candidate.
The initial eight-party alliance's Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is under review, with Pheu Thai weighing options between adhering to the pact or forming a government potentially without Move Forward.
Pheu Thai fears public backlash if it openly abandons Move Forward to align with pro-establishment parties, yet Move Forward's 'devil may care' attitude complicates traditional political bargaining.
The eight-party alliance is set to meet to strategize their next move before the July 27 parliamentary vote for the prime minister, with Pheu Thai hoping Move Forward might voluntarily exit the coalition.
