Senators have threatened legal action against opposition leader Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut unless he apologises within three days for remarks alleging the Senate is part of a "blue regime" rooted in the 2017 Constitution, which he described as a legacy of a coup.
A group of 89 senators, led by Senate whip spokesperson Phisit Apivatanapong, issued the warning at a press conference at parliament on Monday, rejecting accusations made in Mr Natthaphong's Facebook post on Friday, in which he described the current Senate as a "blue Senate" created under the 2017 Constitution.
