People’s party aims at landslide in next election
13 Sept 09:00Key points summarised by AI
The People's Party, led by Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut and a reincarnation of the Move Forward party, aims to secure an overall majority in the 2027 general election to form a "government of changes."
All 143 former Move Forward MPs have joined the new party, which plans to launch a significant membership and fundraising campaign targeting 10 million members.
The party will continue its efforts to amend the lèse majesté law, adopting a more cautious approach, and remains open to coalition talks without compromising its core ideology or public interest.
Named "People's" to reflect its democratic ideals and commitment to the populace, the party's logo is an inverted triangle.
