    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, Hon. Junet should add that I killed Jubilee Party with his help and the help of ODM. We want to thank you because Jubilee Party is no more. Some of the Bills we have passed here - and I say this with authority - are meant to bring back the BBI through the back door. The BBI sought to give us an imperial presidency. We are creating imperialism in political parties. What we have done today is that when you are a member of a political party, you are not different from gas in a tank. Without somebody turning the button on, you are stuck in that tank and your rights are infringed on. Yes, you have the numbers: six versus one. Yes, the Bill will pass the way the BBI Bill passed. However, these laws are not for the people of Kenya but for individuals. Going forward, we need to amend the Standing Orders of this House so that there is a threshold for calling Special Sittings. This has been the worst Christmas and the worst New Year for Members of Parliament in the history of the Republic of Kenya. I pity young Members of Parliament. I have no problem because my youngest child is about 23 years old. There are Members who have young families. We have denied them an opportunity to enjoy the New Year with their families. So, I propose that all these amendments take effect after the next general election."
