Pheu Thai asks charter court to remove Anutin and Natthaphong as MPs

11 Sept 13:30 Key points summarised by AI

Pheu Thai MPs formally requested the House Speaker to seek a Constitutional Court ruling on the parliamentary status of Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and People’s party leader Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut.
The request alleges that Anutin and Natthaphong violated constitutional sections and the Political Parties Act by signing an agreement for government formation.
This agreement, which secured the People's party's support for Anutin's premiership, is claimed to put the minority government under the People's party's control, hindering Bhumjaithai MPs' ability to perform their duties freely.
Key conditions of the controversial agreement include Anutin dissolving the House within four months, organizing a referendum for a new charter, and the People’s party remaining in opposition.
