The MK Party MKP has threatened legal action against KwaZulu-Natal legislature speaker Nontembeko Nothemba Boyce following the suspension of 36 members for disorderly conduct during a chaotic sitting last week.
Boyce confirmed that 35 MKP members and one EFF MPL were sanctioned for what she described as gross disorderly, violent and unlawful conduct during the legislature sitting on Monday, held after a failed motion of no confidence in KwaZulu-Natal premier Thami Ntuli.
The motion, brought by the MKP, was ruled to have failed after MKP and EFF members refused to participate in the vote, leaving Ntuli in office.
