Klaitham Party Rejects No‑Confidence Motion Over Political Focus

The Klaitham Party announced it will not join the opposition's no‑confidence motion against the prime minister and ministers, saying it was not consulted. Party spokesperson Athakorn Siri‑latthayakorn argued the motion focuses on political issues like the 'senator cabal' case rather than on governance or public concerns such as water management and flood relief. He warned the debate will not improve people's problems or benefit the public.

Klaitham Party spokesperson Athakorn Siri‑latthayakorn reiterated on October 8, 2026 that the party did not join the no‑confidence motion filed by the opposition, saying it had not been approached to participate or sign. After examining the motion, he said its core allegations against the prime minister and several ministers are not directly tied to state administration and appear to focus more on political matters, especially the 'senator cabal' issue, rather than evaluating government performance. He questioned whether the debate intends to scrutinize the administration or merely play political games, noting that ministers responsible for urgent matters such as water and flood management are omitted while others with unclear accusations are included. Athakorn stressed that the Klaitham Party views the no‑confidence debate as a forum to discuss governance, public welfare, and government accountability, not a stage for expanding political disputes, and warned that the resulting debate will not resolve people's problems nor bring any benefit to the public.
