【选举】意图阻止在野党扎根 林瑞莲再抨非选区议员制

工人党主席林瑞莲再次抨击非选区议员制度,指这是人民行动党为了防止在野党建立政治根基的做法。

工人党昨日(1日)首次在线上直播,也反击“在野党可当非选区议员”的论述。

该党后港单选区候选人陈立峰,引述前党魁刘程强的话,认为没有选民和选区的非选区议员,就如同水塘里的浮萍。

“人民行动党推行非选区议员制度,其根本目的在于确保没有其他政党可以在选区扎根,而且非选区议员在行动党选很难获得设施使用权,因为那是行动党成员常用以办活动的地方。”

工人党在上届国会中,共有三名非选区议员,分别是吴佩松、贝理安和陈立峰。

然而,非选区议员制度自引入以来,工人党便一再抨击,认为非选区议员并不等同于当选议员,且是为了行动党的政治优势所创建的。

工人党秘书长毕丹星认为,工人党必须取得至少三分之一的议席,方能确保行动党无法随意修改宪法。

佘雪玲则录制视频向年轻选民喊话,“记得2020大选是你们的机会,在国会选出你们想要的政府。我们可以有一个选择聆听人民心声,同时脚踏实地的政府。”

非选区议员制度早在1984年出现,在当选的在野党候选人少于下限的情况下,让得票率最高的落选者以非选区议员的身份进入国会,以确保国会有一定人数的在野党议员。

非选区议员享有在国会的投票权利,包括对修改宪法、拨款法案、财政法案、不信任动议以及罢免总统等事项进行辩论和表决。

随后,在2016年修宪,包括非选区议员在内的反对党议员人数下限已从九人增至12人。
