YOURSAY | The strange love affair between Umno and PN

Politically, I think Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has played his last card. And no doubt, he is shivering too, now that former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak has been convicted of all the seven charges.

So, in reality, Zahid has no choice but to cling to PAS while he still can. But party deputy president Mohamad Hasan is waiting in the wing, ready to pounce anytime. I suppose courage and basic sensibilities do surface, the more apparent one's imminent downfall becomes. Over to you, Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.Are these the actions of a desperate man co-opting a party into his personal struggles with the law?

If Umno pulls out of backing Muhyiddin, and Pakatan Harapan Plus refuses to back Muhyiddin, a snap general election is the only way out of the impasse. I am certain that Umno/PAS will ‘win’ it handsomely.When you have strange bedfellows sleeping together, it always produces weird outcomes. As the relationship sours into the classic “blame you, not me” phase, the question will arise is that “who will go to heaven and/or who will end up in hell?”Umno pulled out from PN, but still wants to be in PN's government. This is just like saying, "I divorce you, but still want to remain your spouse."
