Where Art thou? Away in his chambers, enjoying the dedak provided by the backdoor PM?
Thank you Surendra and BFM for giving this explanation with respects the no-confidence motion against the backdoor PM. Is the motion really putting our nation into political turmoil? I beg to differ – the current backdoor government lacks legitimacy! If it can win that vote of no-confidence, all the frogs and leeches in that government can hold their heads up high – I , for one will no longer dare to call it a backdoor government!!
