    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I attempted to understand the ruling. I realised it was 71 pages, with 508 paragraphs. I also read that there were 34 prayers, but the judges only honoured three. In the first prayer, the judges said that the Majority and Minority parties were already determined at the ballot on 9th August 2022. As a layman, I want to translate this to mean that the determination that was made at the ballot is based on the Members of Parliament seated in this House. I believe it is in your power to determine who the Majority and the Minority are even by a simple head-count. Our Constitution provides for freedom of association, and any Member can choose to be in whatever coalition they want. It will be your responsibility to make a determination of the Minority and Majority parties based on that. For parties that already left their coalitions, there is a right to be in new associations that they deem comfortable and necessary for them. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
