    "content": "My argument is that Parliament has a responsibility and the failure of both Houses of Parliament to pass the Bill, has the consequence of failing that Bill and cannot proceed to the Referendum. I will back my argument with Article 257 (9), which says: “If Parliament passes the Bill, it shall be submitted to the President for assent, in accordance with Article 256 (4) and (5).” Assuming we were not amending the protected sections of the Constitution, that is, on devolution, structure of Parliament and any section touching on human rights or representation; they were just amendments that are not protected under Article 255 and Parliament fails to pass them--- Do you want to tell me the President was going to sign it into law even if Parliament did not pass it? There must be consequences if both Houses of Parliament fail to pass the Bill."
