• 11 Feb 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. It is very normal for human beings not to disown their children. This is my child and I cannot disown it. I go by the verdicts of the rules and regulations of this House. What I had in mind, actually, I did not mention anywhere that there should not be no demonstrations and picketing. I even quoted the laws of the commonwealth nations. I do not want to say Members ignored that. However, my thinking was that there should be limitations. For example, you cannot demonstrate at the military barracks or hospitals. Those are what ... view

It was also ... view
