On August 22, members of the Thai Parliament will vote for a new prime minister in an effort to break the deadlock around the choice of a leader and the formation of a cabinet.
The house speaker has announced that the next week will see a vote for a new prime minister in Thailand. This choice was decided after a court denied a lawsuit by the election-winning Move Forward party that sought to dispute the rejection of their nominee by Parliament. Pita Limjareonrat, the party's nominee for prime minister who was twice rejected by Parliament, was not one of the complainants in the case, the Constitutional Court argued in its judgment.
