Opposition needs reset, say Guan Eng, Mat Sabu after failure to stop budget

PETALING JAYA: DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng and Amanah president Mohamad Sabu have called on Pakatan Harapan to stop wasting time on “opportunistic” Perikatan Nasional backbenchers who are exploiting them.

In a joint statement, Lim and Mohamad said PH must face the reality that the opposition needs a reset, following its failure to stop the federal budget from being passed.

“Yesterday’s vote has clearly shown that the 108 MPs opposed to PN are the same number that stayed firmly with PH in March 2020. Not a single government backbencher voted with PH, including those who allegedly support Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

“Clearly, these government backbenchers are adept at playing political games to gain maximum leverage from the PN government,” they said.
