Iskandar Puteri MP Lim Kit Siang has blasted Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob after Attorney-General Idrus Harun’s claim that it was not necessary for the new PM to receive a confidence vote.

The DAP veteran claimed that in one day, Ismail Sabri had gone from “enhancing to jeopardising” the possibility of a political breakthrough in Parliament through a historic confidence-and-supply agreement and a new political ceasefire to ensure that the focus is placed on fighting the Covid-19 pandemic.
