I will defend Thai soil with my life, he thunders.

He's making much of his tough stand against neighbouring Cambodia in the recent border clashes and his support for the Thai army, an institution which has often overthrown democracy here.

But there are many other ways to block reformist parties from taking power,

in particular the Constitutional Court, which has dismissed five sitting prime ministers, dissolved dozens of parties and banned hundreds of politicians, nearly all of them opponents of the status quo.

Siripan Nogwansawatdi is a political scientist from Chulalongkorn University.

And that is what everyone expects will happen if the People's Party wins again.

I asked the movement's founder, Thanaton Janrungrungkit, how he felt about that.

But if the past is any guide, what Thais won't see is a government committed to the kinds of changes its ageing society and stagnating economy need.

Or if by chance that does happen...

Few think it would last very long.

We end with the work of Rubal Nagy, an Indian artist and teacher who transforms neglected and broken walls into large-scale interactive murals.

She set up more than 800 learning centres across India in places where children have never attended school.

Her work is so inspiring that she's just been awarded a $1 million Global Teacher Prize.

Rubal Nagy has been telling James Copnell more about what she does.

And if we talk about murals, what you call these living walls of learning, what would I see if I saw one of them?

What kind of things are painted on them?

Is there one in particular that stays with you, a life transformed?

Some good news from Indian teacher Rubal Nagy.

And that's all from us for now.
