Jordan: rift in centrist parties, with accusations of 'betrayal', 'lying' and 'failure'

Jordan ·

MP Ahmad Hmeisat said he was betrayed after he failed to win the post of first deputy speaker of the House of Representatives. He ran on behalf of six centrist blocs, which together have about 103 MPs, but received 44 votes under fragile understandings among the parties.

Jordan is a constitutional monarchy whose elected House of Representatives shares legislative power with an appointed Senate.
