"The prime minister's political secretary lacks common sense to understand the difference between a non-MP being included on a parliamentary steering committee and a political secretary of the leader of the opposition conveying a letter as her envoy," a statement of Saber said.

The statement expressed surprise over 'ignorance' of Harris, the prime minister's political secretary.

On Friday, Harris ridiculed the AL leadership for sending a non-MP to the CPA headquarters with a letter of the opposition leader and objecting at the same time to the inclusion of non-MPs on the steering committee for the CPA conference.
