PKR man mocks Umno sack threat, says Syed Saddiq is braver
Nabil Halimi of PKR Youth also compared Umno to a spouse who challenged their partner for a divorce but continued to seek comfort in the same bed at night.
PKR Youth deputy chief Nabil Halimi mocked Umno's challenge for critics to sack the party from the government, comparing it to a spouse threatening divorce while still seeking comfort in the same bed. He said the PKR youth party, led by its former president Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman, exhibited more courage than Umno by immediately leaving the government backbench after disagreeing with a policy.
Syed Saddiq left the unity government in 2023 due to his dissatisfaction with the abrupt end of deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's corruption trial. When asked if Umno would form a "third force" in the opposition bloc, Syed Saddiq stated that his party would only do so if it had a seat in the Dewan Rakyat. Earlier, Umno president Zahid Hamidi had taunted Pakatan Harapan by challenging Umno and Barisan Nasional critics to remove them from the coalition government, while also criticizing Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and questioning Umno's ability compared to PKR.
