United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) chairwoman Tida Tawornseth has vowed to continue to push for a general amnesty for political prisoners.

Ms Tida yesterday outlined the group's action plan for 2013 at UDD headquarters.

She said the UDD would step up efforts to secure the release of political prisoners before they died in detention.

Does anyone outside of the UDD actually take this women seriously; we want amnesty for our lot but not their lot whom we cleverly set up to shoot us all and spill blood.

By any honest definition, a political prisoner is someone who is jailed for their political belief and in no way includes fugitive criminals. One hopes that Tida Tawornseth has the intelligence to grasp that.

Thida , your boos and principal funder said it was moo moo ( a piece of cake) to get the referendum vote so what silly game are you playing. I think you are trying to show you are independent when we know you are not.

What a wimp Kwanchai is. Full of bravado in front of a mob as a co leader. Now he is challenged by his own kind he trots out the " I am only one little man "excuse.

Amnesty is becoming a pressing issue for the anti-democracy movement,UDD,because DSI and it's General Director,Mr. Tarit,is losing credibility at an alarming rate. It's seems at this point,they actually don't have any left to lose.
So it's hardly surprising that UDD Chairwoman is getting desperate.
