Her Pheu Thai party — still governing in a caretaker capacity — was jostling for support from the largest opposition bloc the People's Party to confirm a new candidate for prime minister.
But just moments after the People's Party announced their crucial backing for a rival candidate, conservative tycoon Anutin Charnvirakul, Pheu Thai said they would seek to dissolve parliament.
Pheu Thai secretary general Sorawong Thienthong told AFP that acting Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai "has submitted a house dissolution decree."
