FPM MP says Jumblat switched from 'defiant' to 'non-defiant' in Speaker, Deputy Speaker vote
Free Patriotic Movement MP Cesar Abi Khalil slammed Wednesday Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat for switching in ten minutes from "defiant" to "non-defiant."
Abi Khalil questioned how Jumblat voted for Amal's Speaker, then against FPM MP Elias Bou Saab as Deputy Speaker.
"Can he explain to us how did he take the side of Amal and Hizbullah during the Speaker's election, then the side of the other blocs during the election of the Deputy Speaker," he asked.
Jumblat had suggested earlier today to frame a joint plan "to confront the March 8 Alliance," after the PSP-backed MP Ghassan Skaff failed to win the Deputy Parliament Speaker post.
