    "content": "Finally, it is important for the Members to appreciate that belonging to a political party is a commitment that you make. The issue of party discipline needs to be critical and central if we want to strengthen political parties and make our politics mature. It is unfair to belong to a political party and perpetuate ideologies of another political party. We need to find mechanisms in which we can make arrangements to punish, de-whip or bring to line those members who go against party positions. If you are courageous enough and you are strong enough on the ground, the moment you disagree with your party position, it is only reasonable for you to resign from that party and seek re-election or seek another political party to use for the next election or in the event there is a by-election. It is sad and ashaming to purport to belong to a political party and then you associate with its enemies."
