The 10 percent who did not agree with the decision have been advised to take a leave or let the party know that they are against supporting the decision. He likewise stressed that those who were not in favor won’t be expecting support from the party if they go against the decision. However, the reelectionist senator said that they have not yet thought of sanctions at this point in time. He also denied some detractors’ claim that the NPC do not keep solidarity on its decision. The senator even asked if all LP members of the various parties like the LP, UNA and Lakas are solid.
