BANGKOK - As the first session of Thailand’s newly elected Parliament next Monday draws near, the two major parties hoping to form the post-election government are locked in

The alliance is formed by parties that share largely similar ideologies, such as opposing the Thai junta’s interference in elections and a goal of rewriting the Constitution. The bloc signed a memorandum of understanding in May, and has committed to supporting MFP leader Pita Limjaroenrat in his bid to become prime minister.

A flurry of activity, and contradicting reports suggesting that either party would give up the post, followed. The House Speakership is significant, as the individual will head the legislature and can chart the agenda of Parliament sittings. This could divide the planned coalition and see rival parties propose their own candidates, said analysts.Pheu Thai, a seasoned political party linked to former PM Thaksin Shinawatra, could be playing hard ball in an attempt to win more key roles, such as minister or deputy PM.

“ will result is that Pheu Thai will use this excuse to form a coalition with other parties,” said Dr Chambers. Next Tuesday’s vote for House Speaker will put the MFP-led coalition to the test, and despite the tensions, party leaders on Thursday continued to present a united front, sharing pictures and videos of themselves with wide smiles while at a working group meeting.
