A Liberal Party lawmaker on Tuesday called on his colleagues who aligned with the “supermajority” in Congress to become free men and register dissent. ADVERTISEMENT“We are still expecting that members of the party would be free men. Because the word liberal comes from the Latin term liberatis, which means suitable for free men,” Lagman said. “The core of the times will have free men to readily manifest their critical dissent, not to be cowed by fear nor to be temporized by patronage,” Lagman added. Lagman denied anew Duterte’s allegation that the Liberal Party is behind any ouster plot against him.
