Thailand airport protests

Thousands of tourists who were trapped inside the airport are now able to leave now. The protestors were the People Alliance for Democracy. They demanded that the government step down in order for the airport to continue working. Before the airport was free, the court found that the prime minister's People Power Party had been buying the votes so the election wasn't fair. The People Alliance for Democracy had vowed that if the government step down, they would stop their protests. The airport was expected to start on 4th of December. All of this happened in Thailand.
