Sanoh tells MPs to be independent

Snoh Thienthong has told MPs from his Wang Nam Yen faction (about 30 of them) to not vote for "those who do wrong to the country", clearly meaning Thaksin. It is believed that he is trying to get himself and his faction members expelled from the TRT so that they would be free to join another political party without being subjet to the 90 day rule, as they would be if they simply resigned.

It remains to be seen whether Thaksin will take the bait.
