London calling
Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who is living in exile, made a call from London to make his preference known on who should be prime minister, People Power Party deputy spokesman Suthin Klangsaeng said on Thursday.
Thaksin's call happened ahead of today's party meeting to nominate a sole candidate for the job, Suthin said.
The party would heed the London advice made as a concerned citizen but opt for a free vote on the nomination, he said.
He also predicted that the turmoil would persist because the People's Alliance for Democracy would not accept any prime minister nominated by his party.
