Pakatan will sabotage bills tabled by Perikatan unless no-confidence vote is allowed, says Dr M
Many Muafakat Nasional supporters prefer for parliament to be dissolved so that GE15 can be held
(Yahoo.news) – The Opposition will reject bills tabled by Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s administration unless there is a vote of no confidence in Parliament first, says his predecessor Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
“If everything he brings to parliament is rejected, how does he continue?” Dr Mahathir told the Reuters international news agency.
Dr Mahathir reckoned Muhyiddin’s Perikatan Nasional alliance only holds a two-seat majority in the 222-seat Dewan Rakyat and said he would keep working with Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, despite past differences, to topple the government that replaced them.
“That is the narrowest majority any government in Malaysia ever had.
“(Muhyiddin) is going to be in very great trouble. Because whatever chance we have to prove that it is not legitimate for him to be the prime minister, we will do that.”
Dr Mahathir said he would seek to oust Muhyiddin at every turn.
