Less than a week after she announced that a motion would be filed seeking to remove the President from office, Opposition Leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar announced that plans to file a motion of no confidence against the Prime Minister were underway.
Last Friday Persad-Bissessar announced that a constitutional motion would be filed seeking the removal of Paula-Mae Weekes from office, alleging that she was politically influenced on the selection process of a Police Commissioner after a visit from a high-office holder and therefore unfit to continue as President.
The motion was defeated by the Parliament's Electoral College during an extraordinary sitting of the House of Representatives and the Senate on Thursday by a vote of 24 members for, 47 members against with no abstentions.
During the sittings, the microphones of several Opposition MPs were muted as they repeatedly interrupted House Speaker Brigid Annisette-George as she attempted to proceed with a vote on the motion.
At a media conference at her Charles Street, Port of Spain, office on Thursday, Persad-Bissessar described the failure of the motion as an \"attack on democracy\" and warned that if left unchecked TT's institutions would be vulnerable to political interference.
She added that her party would continue to raise the issue even after its defeat in Parliament and said her party would commence with an \"October revolution.\"
Asked why she chose to file a motion against the President instead of a no-confidence motion against the Prime Minister in which the matter could be debated, Persad-Bissessar said, \"It's coming.\"
\"The last time I brought a no-confidence (motion) against the Prime Minister in 2010 the government fell, so it's coming in due course.
\"This matter will be kept alive long after today until the truth is revealed, we will take it onto the people as an October revolution as happened in other countries when a constitution has failed.
\"The Prime Minister will find no rock large enough to hide under or no robe thick enough to protect him from the firestorm that will come his way as a wage for treading on our sacred Constitution.\"
Asked to refer to which part of the Constitution allowed for debates on Parliamentary motions, Persad-Bissessar said it would take more time than the media conference would allow.
\"I have to go into so much legalese which I will do on another day, so for the moment I would prefer to leave it at that.\"
Persad-Bissessar said the October revolution would include efforts from her party to challenge the government in or out of the Parliament on matters of transparency and governance.
On Wednesday the Office of the President announced that head of wealth management for Firstline Securities Ltd Maxine King and criminologist Ian Ramdhanie were nominated for appointment to the Police Service Commission (PSC).
Former Judge Judith Jones and accountant Maxine Attong were also being considered for appointment to the commission.

The slogan on the young matriculant's T-shirt stood out: "Online Class of 2020". The message was clear; it had been a year like no other for her and fellow learners. But others were not as successful. Unable to cope with class rotation, digital literacy and the complex psychosocial challenges wrought by COVID-19, learners across the country carried their problems into classrooms, creating a perfect storm for teaching staff - untrained in these skills, and struggling to cope themselves.
