Guyana - Gov’t falls after APNU+AFC MP Charrandas Persaud votes yes to no confidence motion

[sMASH]

a party member voting against his party, is a step in the right direction. people voting on issues, just because its what the ruling party wants, is not good.

its only controversial because its so alien.

when republicans propose war, democrats vote for that all the time in the congress.

Charrandas Persaud needs to be written about in every caribbean social studies textbook. The children need to know about this day.

T&T has had "conscience vote" situations of its own, nothing that brought down a Government directly though. The closest thing would have been when "Team Unity" forced Panday to call elections in 2001 and the whole "moral and spiritual values" fiasco saw President A.N.R. Robinson appointing Patos as Prime Minister.

Cyar see anything like that happening this rounds nuh, Sh!tkicker didn't surround himself with 'yes men' for nothing yunno...

T&T gov­ern­ments’ own is­sues ...

T&T has its own case in 2000 when the Bas­deo Pan­day ad­min­is­tra­tion col­lapsed af­ter then-MPs Ralph Maraj, Trevor Su­dama and Ramesh Ma­haraj fell out with the Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress and vot­ed against Gov­ern­ment mat­ters in Par­lia­ment. Un­able to pass laws, then prime min­is­ter Pan­day called an elec­tion the fol­low­ing year, re­sult­ing in the 18-18 dead­lock and ap­point­ment of Patrick Man­ning as prime min­is­ter.

The Peo­ple’s Part­ner­ship coali­tion elect­ed in 2010 had in­ter­nal dif­fi­cul­ties with its Con­gress of the Peo­ple part­ner. Ex-COP leader Win­ston Dook­er­an and COP MP Car­olyn Seep­er­sad-Bachan vot­ed against the PP gov­ern­ment’s con­tro­ver­sial Con­sti­tu­tion Amend­ment bill in 2014—ex­press­ing con­cerns on it—while COP leader Prakash Ramd­har and COP MP Lin­coln Dou­glas vot­ed for it, while COP MP Rodger Samuel ab­stained.

Then prime min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar had al­lowed a con­science vote on the bill, which was passed by sim­ple ma­jor­i­ty votes. The PP coali­tion re­mained to­geth­er un­til be­ing vot­ed out of of­fice in Sep­tem­ber 2015—fol­low­ing which coali­tion part­ners went sep­a­rate ways.

We joined the Non-Aligned Movement in 1970. This supposedly blocks us from having foreign military on our soil on a permanent basis or something like that.

[sMASH]
