6 Coalition Partners Hold Press Conference

Somchai W is having a press conference with the other 5 party leaders and announces that the 5 parties have agreed to continue to be in the government and have agreed to support him at the parliamentary vote tomorrow to be PM. This of course comes after the Friends of Newin Group of 73 MPs agreed to support him earlier in the day ending their short-lived revolt.

Word is that Chat Thai are trying to get Communications Transport* Ministry and this is part of the reason for the Newin Group revolt as they want this ministry.

You are not going to get too many juicy soundbites from Somchai. He speaks like a judge and is thorough.

*Yes, I always conflate the Transport and Communications portfolio - it used to be one.
