I am really trying to finish, but these ‘mourners’ who are mourning more than the bereaved keep interrupting. If there was a coup in our party, they are not members of our party. So, they would not know. I am just responding to the point of order. As I said, sometimes it is difficult when you are independent minded and see things differently. However, I want to thank the Senators in the Jubilee Party who had given me the privilege to serve them as the Whip in the House. I know that there was a lot of coercion and intimidation, but I understand. As we were told earlier this morning, it is politics and that is just the way it is. So, with the cause that I have been pursuing, I will continue to pursue it more vigorously. I know one of the issues that they had with me was because I stood up for the people of Kariobangi. I was told that since I am a Whip, I should not speak on evictions in Kariobangi. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
