"content": "It is like we are creating something afresh! Why are we going into this big thing of now defining it as \"Leader of Government Business\"; \"Leader of the Official Opposition\"; \"Any other party leader entitled to make nominations\" and so on? Why are we saying so many things? Why do we not say as a Standard Three student who knows some English will say that if this is the meaning of a party--- They will, first of all, tell you that they do not know the meaning of a party. However, if you tell them what it means and then ask them, \"What would a leader mean?\" They will tell you, \"A party leader, then, means a leader of a parliamentary political party\". That is a tick! They will score ten over ten! So, why are we being confused by so many words? Why are May 23, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 1587 we being taught new English and new definitions which do not make meaning in law, facts and common sense? It is because there is a mischief."
