Not making a judgement here, just an observation. IK was removed constitutionally.

75 year history, not one elected PM has completed a full term.

:pakistan:

Speaker resigns

My mistake, I deleted that. That is an option.

One doubt I have about the filibuster strategy, can IK keep it up if the courts had previously said that 3rd April was the last day of the NVC vote. And since SC said that proceedings must happen today as if we are at Apr 3rd, would not having the vote be breaking the law? Might it be contempt...

Constitutional limits cannot be breached in parliamentary affairs. If the SC intervenes here too, it will be because of the legal limits defined as per the last day of the NVC vote. These arguments of parliamentary independence wrt to the use of Art. 5 to reject the vote and dissolution of...

The current strategy of the government is borrowed from a US congressional tradition called "filibustering". Not sure if any limits are defined in parliamentary proceedings. But the real threat to this strategy may come from the courts. They can follow up and unequivocally say that on x date and...

Ministers have been changing their profiles on twitter to read "former ___ minister", before SC verdict IK was also the self-described "former PM". So this shouldn't surprise much.

Agree they want to quash Imran, anything beyond that is uncertain.

Reports were coming that the PM secretariat requested additional security for the "former PM" in light of the current crisis. Perhaps we shouldn't jump to a conclusion here.

If anyone thinks these parties liked each other before IK showed up, they weren't paying attention. They were each other's main opposition and competition in elections. Even as recently as the Senate Chairmanship election, they were at each others throat. The current PPP and PMLN accuse the...

They prefer it to living next to Imran sure. But they're only unified till IK is out, they don't trust each other at all. They'll stab each other in the back at the first opportunity. You shouldn't confuse electoral games and rigging at a local level vs. national rigging. The former has been...

They can't rig the elections, won't be possible in the current dynamic. Too ununified to even attempt any grand attempt to rig anything. Whenever they come to power, you'll see how capable they are when they try to pass basic bills, let alone contentious bills, let alone a rigging and electoral...

Disagree. PPP wants Sindh - sure. PMLN - they want Punjab - and the centre, not just the province. JUIF - agreed However.... none of them can govern any of the provinces if the centre is a messy, weak, incapable coalition. That's what we'll have, at best it'll be incapable. Every time we...

It won't come to that, IK won't last long. And it's best that whatever mutant coalition follows him also doesn't last long. If the opposition thinks they'll make some unity government to last long, they're fooling themselves, it'll be knives out against one another within 72 hours. And as weak...

The more Imran struggles to prevent the inevitable, the worse he'll make things for himself when he is removed.

Sorry for your loss. Allah pak apk bhai k darjaat buland farmaye.

Lmao, these lowlifes. This is a nice feature, I can’t see the flag though. When I was still on mod duties, we’d have to look up IP, then IP location. And then we’d expose these scum on the forum. So many pathetic soles pretending to be Pakistani. There were/are lots of users with Pakistani...

You’re just some edgy kid, go pick up a gun and get yourself killed by the armed forces for free, spare us the nonsense on PDF.
