After much reflection, all this started with the PH Presidential Council of which Tun M, DS Anwar, Lim KS, Lim GE and others are member. They should all take responsibility for the mess as they and only they agreed just before GE14 as candidates (the treacherous MPs that had leap-frog away) and accepting Bersatu as partner of PH and now they are gone. And most knew what character they are of.
Like in the "so-called" western countries that are "democratic" and of principled people (that we all aspired to be), they - Tun M, DS Anwar, Lim KS, Lim GE should immediately resigned to take responsibility. Anything less is an affront to the voters that have voted for PH. And worse of all, they said they are not responsible and pointing fingers at everyone else except themselves - what a disgraced, a damn lousy example you all are setting, especially those that are writing apology for them.
Now is the time for the so call young progressive members (e.g Nurul, Wan Saiful, etc) of all these political parties to stand up and take over the leading from all these old leaders that are totally bankrupt of any new ideas to lead and of no moral standing whatsoever..
