Will Shinawatras stir political pot from abroad?
Of course she will,once she knows she is safe.
Just like big brother, they will make many phone calls back to Thailand. Both of them should have the guts to do the time and then they are free to do what they want outside any government involvement

Why not? Let’s use a well-known expression “Until boredom overtook us”.

I suspect that we won’t hear much from them in the immediate short term, for the reasons mentioned of asylum application and family under “investigation”.
And I doubt that either will ever return to Thailand; once a person goes into exile, it is very, very rare that they return.
But will they speak and contribute to the Thai political debate? Of course! They are both former prime ministers, and former PMs always have a voice. Further, they “left” mainly due to military involvement in politics, that means they will have a voice forever.
It amuses me that the “greens” and “yellows” will have to hear it for the rest of their lives

Although the Shins enjoy a wide base of support among the masses, mainly because in their times money flowed free and farmers and the poor were looked after very well on the country’s dwindling reserves and on empty promises, as for stiring the pot, let them try, it will cost billions with no guarantee of results.

I remember when Thaksin first went to the UK in “exile”. He said he was too old for politics and therefore finished with politics. I can imagine Yingluck will make some kind of similar remark.

Who cares? Best forgotten about, they are both corrupt, very dishonest and not particularly clever.
