Zahid Panics He Can Get Only 12 Umno Mps To Support The Bubar Parlimen Motion

---

The only way to know whether the majority in Umno support Zahid would be to hold the party election and see who the party chooses as the new Umno president. But Zahid is scared to do that because Ismail Sabri might win the presidency instead. NO HOLDS BARRED

The latest headcount of the members of parliament who support Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s move to dissolve or bubar parliament is only 12 Umno MPs. Zahid cannot get support from the non-Umno MPs while most Umno MPs want to wait until after the party election before holding the 15th general election or PRU15.
The Umno MPs know that many of them are going to be dropped as candidates in PRU15. Zahid is going to embark on house-cleaning and will get rid of all those who are not on the same page with him. And many are NOT on the same page as Zahid (and today Zahid called them traitors who need to be executed).
If the Umno MPs support the dissolution of parliament, they will just be handing Zahid a knife to cut their throats. So it is suicide to allow Zahid to dissolve parliament to make way for PRU15 when that would grant Zahid carte blanche to decide who lives and who dies.
The logical and safe thing would be to replace Zahid with a new party president, in this case prime minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob, so that they are not dropped as candidates in PRU15. Hence PRU15 needs to be delayed and held only after the Umno party elections.
Zahid knows it is tough to sway the MPs to his side. So he is using the Umno annual general assembly or PAU to whip the Umno delegates into a frenzy. He wants to create the perception that this is the wish of 3.5 million Umno members. But a few screaming mat rempit or rent-a-crowd do not represent 3.5 million Umno members.

Berisiko bubar Parlimen tanpa persetujuan parti lain dalam kerajaan, kata Annuar (FMT) – Kedudukan Barisan Nasional (BN) dan perdana menteri berdepan risiko, jika pembubaran Parlimen dibuat tanpa persetujuan parti lain dalam kerajaan, kata Menteri Komunikasi dan Multimedia, Annuar Musa.
Katanya, kerajaan semasa adalah kerajaan pelbagai parti dan Umno hanyalah parti minoriti.
Justeru, beliau mengingatkan Umno tidak mengambil mudah perkara itu, sebaliknya perlu mengadakan perbincangan lanjut dengan parti lain dalam kerajaan.
“Sekarang ini bukan macam dahulu. Sekarang ini, Umno adalah minoriti dalam kerajaan. Kita hanya satu kerajaan yang ada 41 kerusi daripada 116 kerusi.
“Katakanlah Umno nak bubar (Parlimen) dan tiba-tiba parti-parti lain dalam kerajaan kata tak nak, jadi kalau PM kata bubar, parti (lain) tak sokong, maka perdana menteri kena letak jawatan.
“Apabila dia letak jawatan, kerajaan yang ada berhak ambil (jawatan) perdana menteri baharu dan mungkin satu parti masuk mengisi kekosongan sebab kita hanya ada 42…itu pun kalau keluar semua, kalau ada parti lain masuk dan lebih 42, maka kerajaan tak boleh bubar juga.
“Ini semua nak kena hitung,” katanya menurut laporan Astro Awani.
Annuar turut menyarankan Umno melakukan “post-mortem” terlebih dahulu sebelum memutuskan untuk mempercepatkan pilihan raya umum ke-15 (PRU15).
Ini kerana, jelas Ahli Parlimen Ketereh itu, Umno mungkin menang pada pilihan raya negeri (PRN) Johor dan Melaka tanpa kekuatan parti seperti PAS.
“Namun, keadaan itu mungkin berbeza di negeri seperti Terengganu, Kelantan, Kedah dan Perak.”
Katanya, tidak salah untuk berasa gembira dan kuat selepas menang di dua negeri itu, namun jangan melakukan sesuatu tindakan yang hanya akan memerangkap diri sendiri.
“Maka, pada saya, PRU15 memang perlu disegerakan, namun bukan cuba nak uar-uarkan, kecuali dengan niat uar-uar untuk memberi tekanan kepada perdana menteri.”
