No-confidence dates remain unsettled after second walkout
Yesterday 13:00Key points summarised by AI
Opposition whips staged a second walkout from talks with government counterparts, leaving dates for a no-confidence debate against 18 Cabinet members, including the prime minister, unresolved.
Disagreement centered on the debate's duration and timing: government proposed late October (4 days debate, 1 day vote), while opposition demanded a longer six-day process in November.
Government chief whip Korrawee Prissananantakul expressed disappointment, citing the Prime Minister's overseas travel on October 30 as a key scheduling conflict.
Korrawee denied government attempts to delay the censure, asserting their readiness to proceed and placing the onus on the opposition for initiating further negotiations.
