"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, absolutely! I will not delve further into that point. It is just to pity Sen. Sang who misguided himself on account of what he has read or insinuated. On this salient point, when the tools of State coercion are littered all over Parliament, it sends an extremely negative signal. If the National Assembly is meeting, let them do it. For the sake of this Senate, let there be no police presence. Senators are friends irrespective of whether they are adversaries in their political terms. It is wrong and immoral for the police to barricade the road to Parliament. This is a Parliament in a democratic order and we are not about to reverse it. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support what the Senate Minority Leader suggested; that we adjourn until the police removes the barricade so that people can see that we are in an atmosphere of democracy. Democracy is not only practised but should be seen to be practised."
