JUDGEMENT IN PROGRESS

The judge has begun to read the verdict. Ominously he opened by saying his speech would take a long time and asked those present in court to sit down.
This political crisis really is gripping the nation, and I took this picture a few minutes ago in my office. The verdict is being shown wall-to-wall across all television channels so I guess this must count as Thailand's most watched programme. Judging by the lack of traffic on the road oustide my office I think my colleagues are not the only ones watching what's happening.
