Today's quotes: Volney evicted, seat declared vacant; former judge going to court

“I hereby declare that Mr Herbert Volney MP, the Member for St Joseph, having been a candidate of the United National Congress and elected to the House, has resigned from the United National Congress. Accordingly, the Honourable Member is required under Section 49 (A) (4)  of the Constitution to cease to perform his functions as a member of the House of Representatives with immediate effect.”
Speaker Wade Mark in the HOR - Monday 9 September 2013
“The Speaker has quite clearly acted as judge, jury and executioner and has violated the provisions of the Constitution. I have no where else to go but to the court...The UNC has silenced me. They have silenced the people of St Joseph and they will pay a heavy price.”
Herbert Volney in the HOR Monday 9 September 2013
