The ruling Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) aims to capture at least a dozen House seats in Bangkok in the next election, the same number it won in the previous poll.

Justice Minister Somsak Thepsutin said he will defect from the ruling Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) most probably to the main opposition Pheu Thai Party.

Two veteran politicians have left the Democrat Party for the United Thai Nation (UTN) Party, while the last remaining core members of the Sam Mitr group, one of the mainstay factions in the ruling Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP), are poised to return to the Pheu Thai Party, according to political sources.

The Pheu Thai Party on Wednesday said it would welcome back with open arms the Sam Mitr faction if it defects from the Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP), the ruling party, ahead of the general election.

The ruling Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) and the coalition Bhumjaithai Party may be trading places after the next general election if predictions about the outcome of the polls are anything to go by.
