NEW Party Group Deputy Chairman Murat Emir made a statement on his social media account after Fatma Betül Sayan Kaya asked President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan to pardon all the duties she held. Emir said:

"What a beautiful loom. Make decisions together, walk together; when the spear doesn't fit in the sack, declare one person at fault and step aside.

They know very well the game of sacrificing a pawn and saving the whole board when they are in trouble. But this time the curtain won't close so easily.

No one should look our 500 thousand people in the eye and read the tale of "The former minister made a mistake, we did what was necessary." You cannot pay for the morsel stolen from the nation's crop by sacrificing one seat.

The era of saving real heads with the 'We gave heads' show is over. The hands holding the table will also be held accountable. It won't happen this time.
