Move Forward deputy leader proposes party votes for Pheu Thai’s PM candidate
A Move Forward deputy leader proposes the party vote in support of Pheu Thai's prime ministerial candidate.
The proposal is based on Pheu Thai's shared commitment to amending the Constitution, specifically removing senators' power in PM selection.
Pheu Thai has formed a new coalition with Bhumjaithai, excluding Move Forward and upholding the lèse majesté law, while seeking support for Srettha Thavisin.
The deputy leader expressed personal support for Pheu Thai's candidate and hopes for future collaboration, despite the current political separation.
