Article quotes: “confirmed coalition Iraqi forces ( the protesting MP’s ) consensus political blocs not to return to the parliament without a quorum of the meetings of the House of Representatives and the return of the legitimate completed.” “what is happening under the dome is contrary to the Constitution and the law of parliament, and there is no justification to legitimize such meetings under any circumstances.”
IT APPEARS THAT THE PROTESTING MP’S HAVE SUFFICIENT NUMBERS TO PREVENT A QUORUM BUT NOT CARRY A VOTE “AGAIN” ( IF EVER THERE WAS A LEGAL VOTE ) ON THE PRESIDENCY OF JUBOURI.
THE OTHER POLITICAL BLOCS WANT A PLENARY SESSION TO MOVE FORWARD ON THE BUSINESS OF PARLIAMENT, SPECIFICALLY THE CABINET REFORM, BUT THE PROTESTERS INSIST THAT THE LEGITIMACY OF THEIR VOTE FOR THE REMOVAL OF JOBOURI BE RECOGNIZED AS A CONDITION PRECEDENT AND ATTENDANT TO THEIR “ALLOWANCE” OF ANY QUORUM IN PARLIAMENT.
THE RESULT IS AN IMPASSE AND POLITICAL GRIDLOCK IN PARLIAMENT FOR THE MOMENT.
