Anwar Ibrahim is now the national opposition leader. So why is Dr Mahathir the author of the no confidence vote?
He's not going to be the PM. That means he has allowed himself to be used in moving the motion.
He appears to dig a hole he himself will fall into. It gives me no pleasure to say that of him.
Muhyiddin must have thought long and hard about becoming PM. It's not as if he woke up one morning and decide to become pm. He saw an opportunity and took it.
I am not going to be judgemental on this - you can say he is scheming and unscrupulous and argue about it till the cows come home or you turned blue in the face, but he was effective then-the ends justify the means.
I don't think Muhyiddin will just stand idly and hand over the premiership to Mahathir or anyone. He will use any means necessary to stay in power including deceptive means. There's nothing illegal there.
Some people say Muhyiddin's days are numbered. Mahathir has the numbers. There is dissension in UMNO.
The same can be said of BERSATU. Muhyiddin is president of BERSATU meaning he has his own support. Mahathir made the cardinal mistake of empowering a rival, and he's paying for it now.
If Muhyiddin has the numbers just expel Mahathir. All problems solved for now.
Now I hear parliament will just meet and will not debate. The PM can do this. Mahathir has jumped into the pool but there's no water.
