PAS in a spin after royal speech

THE Yang di-Pertuan Agong was well into the second half of his royal address in Parliament on Monday when Members of Parliament on both sides of the bench began thumping their tables. 

The government backbenchers rapped their table rhythmically in total agreement to what they were hearing and it took a while for many of them to realise that the thumping coming from the other side of the floor was not in agreement, but in opposition.
