WHAT transpired during the National Assembly’s Speakership election is not a usual phenomenon, and cannot be taken as a normal issue. It is not possible to overlook the behavior of the opposition, represented by 28 parliamentarians, and everyone concerned should take into consideration the fact that this opposition is tantamount to a wounded lion.
Furthermore, it is clear that the hearts of the other four parliamentarians are with the opposition, which is represented by Bader Al-Humaidi. Their swords are with Marzouq Al-Ghanim, which means the latter is not comfortable in his seat when a total of 28 MPs are in the opposition while the other four will lean on the side of their interests. Also, the ministerial formation seems weak and does not have what it takes to be confrontational and decisive.
