    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, but I just want to say this about the Political Parties Act. There was a mischief which was supposed to be cured by the Political Parties Act although at this point I am only concerned with one mischief but there were several mischiefs which were identified at the time when the Political Parties Act was enacted. This is through a history where democracy was being destroyed and killed through an intervention by a domineering part either in power or a party which could use resources and even State power to try and cripple the activities of other political parties. The point that I am trying to make is that it is no use to have an Act of Parliament by the provisions of the Constitution, because the Constitution actually lays out what is required of a Political Act, and gives the responsibility to Parliament to enact a law that will give to effect the provisions contained in the Constitution in relation to political parties."
