OPPOSITION whip David Lee says the United National Congress (UNC) has claimed victory in the motions of no confidence recently filed against Energy Minister Franklin Khan and Finance Minister Colm Imbert.
Speaking at the UNC s Monday night s Virtual Report, Lee said the Opposition was also victorious in the preceding no-confidence motion filed against Minister of National Security Stuart Young, brought by Opposition leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar in January.
Lee said government hijacked Parliament in the second two motions. They did not allow our opposition leader to wind up that debate and they shut it down prematurely, he said, adding that Rowley, during the motions against Khan and Imbert, also failed to defend them.
