The media boycott at the parliament ended a day after it was initiated. The barricades were removed by Bung Mokhtar yesterday afternoon, but the media personnel did not enter the restricted areas since there was no official statement from the Parliament office. This action angered Minister Nazri. He said the BN Backbenchers Club (Bung Mokhtar and gang) should have not removed it before the Speaker made official announcement. NST wrote that there is a a silent battle going on between Nazri and the BN BBC.
As reported in Malaysiakini:
 Meanwhile Minister in Prime Minister’s Department Nazri Aziz lambasted the BN Backbenchers Club (BBC) members who removed the barricades yesterday.
“I do not condone their action. Even though they are from BN, they have no power to do that. Who are they to take down the barricade? It’s a bad example of them,” he said today when contacted by a Star senior journalist.
He further added that the power instead lied on the hands of the speaker and they should wait for the decision to be made.
“It’s the speaker’s power, he’s in charge. It’s unbecoming… don’t think you are a BBC member, you can do what you like, is this a gangsters’ club? They better know where they are placed in the house,” he lamented.
The minister also dismissed the allegations that he was behind the media ban, as reported in Malaysian Insider.
He however gave credit to the opposition for raising the matter in the house yesterday.
The speaker Pandikar Amin, today was not exactly behaving in a humble manner when he said:
I would be seen like a loser if I said the ban is lifted
This joker is more worried about saving face than either (i) admit his mistake or (ii) stick to his guns.
