This year it's PAD (Peoples Alliance (against) for Democracy)who seem to be aggrieved about something. Namely a Reconciliation bill that is being debated and if passed could see the return of the Fugitive former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra.
PAD have such an hatred for Thaksin, and any Bill that may mean seeing him on Thai soil will be opposed to.
So instead of the usual ways of opposing a block, PAD just surround Parliament and refuse to let any ruling party MP's into the chamber. Simple!
The Thai Police were their usual inept and pathetic body of men, their non confrontational stance emboldens protesters of all persuasion and in the end makes things even worse.
Anyway, these protests are always look good in the international press, gives some people alot to laugh at.
Thai Police take it easy
