"The no confidence amendment is created by Article 106(6) and (7) of the Constitution. Article 106(6) provides that the “Cabinet including the President shall resign if the Government is defeated by the vote of the majority of all elected members of the National Assembly on a vote of confidence.” Article 106(7) provides that “Notwithstanding its defeat, the Government shall remain in office and shall hold an election within three months….and shall resign after the President takes the oath of office following the election.”

Article 106(6) automatically triggers the resignation of the Cabinet, which is defined by the Constitution as comprising the President, Prime Minister, Vice Presidents and Ministers, upon the passage of a no confidence vote. The resignation is stayed only to manage elections. By not resigning the President and Cabinet are violating the Constitution. The President’s characterization is that this is “a constitutional process which can have favourable outcomes for the nation.” The “favourable outcomes” can only be realized if the “constitutional process” is respected and the President and Cabinet resign."

extra-constitutional NONSENSE from Ralph Ramkarran

of a piece with the somersaults he's been engaging since his 'advice' to the PPP published on November 26

since then, he has effectively managed to pull off describing 'himself' as "ridiculously puerile" among other professionally insulting things without anybody who has read his shyte saying . . . whoa, whoa . . . Ralph . . . wait, wait

enabled by Stabroek News, he now seeks to place it all at the feet of Nigel Hughes

neat trick
