"content": "Let me just point out one issue as I end. I want to salute the distinguished Senator for Mandera. He may today be whipped to transform from the distinguished and reasonable Senator that we know to a voting instrument. We know from the good old days that when there is a troublesome Member of Parliament, you arrest him and release him several times and then tell him: “Go and do what I want.” The distinguished Senator for Mandera is the Chairman of our Committee and has walked me through that Bill. I am absolutely convinced that it is not good for this country. We need time to contest these issues here; not through an ambush like we have had. I urge you to allow a few of my colleagues to supplement and complement the points that I have raised so that the good Lord, in His infinite generosity, can descend upon you to see the need to be fair, just and play to fair play; to allow this House an adjournment. My brother and I can then sit with you and agree on a convenient date so that we can deal with this matter. Nothing is urgent since these are not constitutional time-bound Bills, unless there is a mischief to be played, and at some point I will come back to the Floor to say it. Thank you."
