Most respondents to a survey - 88.89 per cent - find the squabbles in the Parliament the most unacceptable political game, saying that such events make them lose faith in politicians.
The survey, entitled “the unacceptable political game”, was conducted by Suan Dusit Poll between September 10 and 13 among 1,288 respondents.
The result of the poll released Friday reported the second unacceptable game (66.98 per cent) was the use of large crowds in protests, as the people were being exploited in a political game and risked being harmed.
The third (62.64 per cent) was a political race only for the benefits of the parities, thus ignoring the people’s needs, the fourth (58.67 per cent) mudslinging between rivals, an action they found dirty and disgraceful.
Favouritism ranked in fifth place with 55.47 per cent of the vote, while the sixth (53.83 per cent) was divided between corruption and election fraud.
