House of Assembly Closed for the Summer #nlpoli


The House of Assembly has now closed for the Summer. This was certainly a remarkable sitting. Lieutenant Governor Frank Fagan closed the doors yesterday.

The Liberals have has a tough time.

From the budget that made everyone unhinged, to the Ed Martin severance fiasco, to a four-day filibuster, we've witnessed it all this session.

With the release of the latest poll numbers, the Liberals crashed and burned it seems. Their only hope to at least partially regain public confidence is with their supplementary budget, which will be brought down sometime this Fall.

It wasn't all bad, 38 pieces of legislation were passed.
