KUALA LUMPUR: An opposition MP has called on the prime minister to amend the anti-hopping bill, which was tabled for a second reading this morning, to include a provision regarding parliamentarians who are sacked from the party.
Loke Siew Fook (PH-Seremban) said currently, MPs who were sacked would not lose their seats but the party itself would.
This, he said, was a “loophole”.
