"content": "There is also the fear that this amounts to a political coup. I want to assuage this fear. There is no attempted political coup. We are motivated by the public good. Many fear that this is going to amount to another political party. No, this is not the formation of another political party. It is a seed to plant a new dispensation that will introduce parliamentarism in its purest form, where this House functions and operates effectively. There is also the fear of the unknown. People are imagining how they are going to deal with an \"animal\" they have never dealt with before. George Bernard Shaw would say, \"Some people see things that are and ask why; but I dream of things that never were and ask why not\". May we have the courage like George Bernard Shaw to ask, \"Why not Opposition heterogeneity?\" Ralph Worldemerson would even add and say, \"Do not go where the path leads. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail\". I want to challenge this House, let us not be fixated on the known and beaten path. Let us pursue the untrodden path and leave a trail for history!"
