Someone asked: can a democratically-elected MP be kicked out of caucus without due process?
I thought of Raybould's response in a casual street interview before she was kicked out.
She said, "I want to know what the rules are for removing an MP out of caucus."
What a strange thing to say. How can she not know of the rules?
To me, that sounded more like a challenge.
How can she be removed for just doing her job, as she is required - by law?
That's basically what she said more than a couple of times.
She also kept saying she wanted to stay in the Liberal party.
There's also that letter to all Liberal caucus (which is also meant for the public).
She is establishing something here - making it very clear, without any doubt, where she stood.
All these statements could be useful in the near future?
I wouldn't be surprised if she challenge her removal in court.
Could it be she's still getting legal advice from the former Supreme Court judge?
I don't think she'd have stayed in the caucus (despite the nastiness directed at her, and also, with everyone including pundits saying she should leave, or be booted out)... just because!
She must have Plan B!
Or, the scenario is folding out exactly as she directs it.....she's still the one very much in control.
That, the Liberal Party did what she actually wanted them to do - remove her against her will.
Think about it. If this goes to court......we'll most likely hear from all the actors mentioned in that soap opera.
I think there are 11 of them that are named. They won't just be giving their sides of the story.
There will be cross-examinations.
Lol....could it be all Trudeau had seen so far from Raybould, are simply fireworks......
.........precursors to the shelling and the grenades?
Could she be singing this song?
