Sometimes we have to bite the bullet and suspend a recalcitrant member or even sack him. Let us not be so obsessed with preserving our numbers. We have to stick to certain basic principles otherwise the people won't trust PKR.
For that matter, while we are at it, I can think of another moron we need to sack. ;D

PKR political bureau to decide Zulkifli Nordin case
1 Dec 08 : 6.43PM By Ng Boon Hooi
PETALING JAYA, 1 Dec 2008: The fate of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) Bandar
Baru/Kulim Member of Parliament (MP) Zulkifli Nordin, who stormed a Bar
Council forum in August, now rests in the hands of the party's political
bureau.
Disciplinary committee head Dr Syed Husin Ali said the committee has
concluded its long-running investigation and the findings have been passed
to the PKR political bureau, which is headed by de facto party leader Datuk
Seri Anwar Ibrahim, to make a decision.
However, he declined to reveal the findings made by the disciplinary
committee.
Syed Husin said the political bureau will make a decision pending a meeting
between Anwar and Zulkifli.
"Anwar has asked for more time so that he can meet Zulkifli," said Syed
Husin.
Zulkifli is presently on one-month leave, explained Syed Husin. As such he
will be exempted from party-related activities until he returns.
Syed Husin earlier told The Nut Graph that the committee will come to a
decision on the case this month. Though investigations into the matter have
been ongoing since September, no verdict has emerged so far.

The PKR deputy president had also said the possibility of Zulkifli defecting
to Umno had no bearing on the disciplinary action is pending against him.

However, rumours about a possible defection remain rife, especially as he
continues to court trouble by making controversial statements, including
ticking off Pakatan Rakyat parliamentarians for "insulting Islam".

Zulkifli himself has dismissed talk that he will soon switch camps.

On 9 Aug, Zulkifli participated in a 300-strong demonstration against the
Bar Council forum Conversion to Islam: Article 121(1A) of the Federal
Constitution, Subashini and Shamala Revisited, together with others from
PKR, PAS, Umno and various Muslim non-governmental organisations.
Zulkifli received a show-cause letter from the party on 7 Sept and was asked
to explain his actions.
But the controversial MP, who was detained in 1998 under the Internal
Security Act, remains unapologetic for disrupting the forum.
On 19 Sept, he was quoted on the front page of Utusan Malaysia as saying
that he would not apologise "for leading the peaceful demonstration".
