This is how Mahathir plans to oust Pat Lah.........

Mahathir reveals his plot on how to overthrow Pat Lah and stop Anwar from becoming PM, by suggesting that UMNO MPs form an independent group instead of crossing over to the Opposition if they are dissatisfied with the present leadership.

Mahathir said crossing over to the Opposition was wrong, as they would be subjected to opposition policies and would not be able to determine anything.

“You will be an ordinary member, but by forming a separate group, say at least 35 of them, this will cause the Government to collapse and the current PM will have to resign.

“Then if PKR adviser Anwar Ibrahim tries to become the PM and if the votes go to him and then if Deputy PM Najib Tun Razak have the guts to step in, the 35 MPs can give their votes to him.

“When he (Najib) becomes the PM, BN remains in power, and it will be no lost to anyone except to Pat Lah,” he told a press conference after delivering his speech during a forum “Suntikan Semangat Satria” at a hotel Saturday.

The event was organised by three non-governmental organisations known as Minda Melayu Kreatif, Kelab Cinta Amanah Melayu and Arena PJS14. He was commenting on Anwar’s claims that certain MPs from Sabah were expected to “jump ship” by Sept 16.

On another note,Mahathir suspects Ezam Md.Noor intention of joining UMNO recently. Mahathir said,“In politics, anything is possible. It may be that (Ezam is a Trojan Horse). What I do know is that Anwar is quietly anxious to be supported by Umno. “He may want to join Umno at some stage, if he (believes that he) can become PM through that (channel),”

In his usual sarcastic tone, Mahathir said the Umno leadership was “desperate” for signs of support and therefore accepted Ezam. “They are desperate to see support for themselves. Let them accept him. This is a sign of great support for Umno. In fact, they should accept Karpal Singh, the menteri besar of Perak, and also Param Cumaraswamy and Anwar".

Whether this plan can really work,is left to be seen. However,Pat Lah seems to be still in a comfort zone and ignore calls asking him to step down.....

cheers.
