||1:In kicking out Ms Yingluck, the court accomplished what months of anti-government street protests in Bangkok, led by a firebrand populist, Suthep Thaugsuban, had failed to bring about.||2:It is far from the first time the court has ruled against her.||3:To break the impasse on Bangkok’s streets, she had called a February election, but the opposition Democrat Party boycotted it, and the court struck down the results.||4:Ms Yingluck had been limping on as a caretaker.||5:The message for many Thais is that the court is on the side of a royalist establishment bent on purging politics of Ms Yingluck, who came to office three years ago in a landslide election, and—especially—her brother, Thaksin Shinawatra, himself ousted in a coup in 2006 and now in self-imposed exile.

||1:叛乱煽动者素贴?特素班在曼谷领导的反政府街头抗议数月以逼走英拉的任务由宪法法院完成了。||2:这个情形远不及法院首次对英拉做出裁决的情况。||3:为了打破曼谷街头抗议的僵局，她曾召集了一次二月选举，但是反对党民主党对此抵制抗议，而且法院扼杀了选举结果。||4:英拉像一个临时代理人一般的艰难前行。||5:在许多泰国人看来，法院支持建立一个君主主义制度以取代英拉政府统治。英拉三年前在一次压倒性的选举胜利中走上政坛。值得一提的是，英拉的哥哥塔克辛?西那瓦在2006年一次政变中下台，现在也无奈流落异乡。
