Shut your Yap!

Earlier today, provincial Liberal MLAs elected a new caucus chair. And who won that election, you may wonder? Well, rumour has it Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap will be making himself comfortable in the seat once warmed by Gordon Hogg. That election was triggered when Mr. Hogg was elevated to the executive council during a surprise cabinet shuffle.

I wonder what the vote count was for the various contestants?

Dream on. Caucus business is not disclosed to the public, unless it is leaked.

If an MLA says in regards to a Cabinet Minister or one of his associates:

"You should see the hard work he does in our
Meetings or in Caucus"

Dig deeper. The public cannot know the degree
or intensity of MLA work within the Caucus
meetings or Cabinet Meetings as that sort of thing is not available.

A good response would be:

"Okay, tell me exactly what it is that he/she
has done that is better than anyone else in there."

8 times out of 10 you'll get a stern look.

Mary Polak yet loses another vote, when is she going to quit running for everything.
