    "content": "I have seen as we queue to enter Parliament because the gate is narrow some drivers with Members of Parliament in cars crisscross. They find you in the queue but they want to enter before you. Hon. Speaker, it hurts. So, we should learn to respect ourselves, other people and that is how we will earn respect. I am happy that there has not been bad incident like fighting although there was a time when the Mace was nearly taken away. Of late, I have seen that there is a lot of decorum, respect and I had predicted that after the First Session of Parliament. This is because Members find their position. Instead of voting along party lines and getting instructions from somewhere, they start voting with their conscience. They also start realizing where they belong. They start working with conscience knowing that they were elected by members of their constituencies. That is why these days there is balanced voting on any Motion or business that requires voting. Sometimes Jubilee can lose with their tyranny of numbers and sometimes CORD loses and that is democracy. That is what I foresaw."
