Description
Hundreds of protesters took to a main street in central Bangkok despite the rain to express their anger after reformist leader Pita Limjaroenrat's bid to become the prime minister was thwarted by military and pro-royalist lawmakers.
Pita's Move Forward Party won the most seats in May elections, but on Wednesday he was dramatically suspended from parliament, which then refused to grant him a second vote to become the kingdom's next premier.
"You are too old. Let new people, let new generation do this," says protester Supanat Thongprasong. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
