Berri: Parliament to Hold Open-Ended Sessions to Grill Govt. over Great Crime
Parliament will hold open-ended sessions as of Thursday to grill the government over “the great crime that affected the capital and the people,” Speaker Nabih Berri said on Sunday, referring to the catastrophic Beirut port blast.
Berri said the sessions will be held at the UNESCO Palace in Beirut instead of parliament’s building in downtown Beirut -- an area hit by massive devastation from the explosion and angry demonstrations.
Berri’s announcement comes amid seven resignations from parliament by the MPs Sami Gemayel, Nadim Gemayel, Elias Hankash, Marwan Hamadeh, Paula Yacoubian, Neemat Frem and Michel Mouawad.

I swear these people are unbelievable! The holier than thou attitude from the king of corruption is mind boggling. They have no shame! Just freakin leave the whole lot of you. All these useless negligent criminals are counting on the few stupid sheep they still have supporting them to continue to cling on to power. Just go and leave the bruised country try to patch itself up without having to see your miserable faces and hear your nauseating names. Tfeh
