Whatever will be, will be: PPP MP

The court is deciding whether to accept the Election Commission's ruling that had disqualified and red-carded Yongyuth for committing electoral offence in Chiang Rai.

The ruling threatens the very existence of the ruling People Power Party because if the court rules to disqualify Yongyuth who is a PPP's executive member, the party may face dissolution as the Constitution stipulates that political parties are accountable for their executives' actions.

People Power Party party list MP Chatuporn Prompan said the party was ready to accept the fact that its future would hang in a balance if the court ruled to disqualify Yongyuth.

"If the court upholds the EC's decision, the PPP will be in the same position as the Chart Thai Party and the Matchima Thipataya Party,'' he said.

If the PPP is dissolved, all of the party's executive members would also be disqualified from politics for five years and their voting rights would be revoked.

Most of the PPP MPs come from the Thai Rak Thai Party, which was dissolved last year.

The court is expected to deliver the ruling at 4 PM.
