Partly facetious: a 'lota' is someone who has dumped his leader

"So now what?"
"More of the same."
"What are you referring to?"
"Chaudhry Nisar is in the midst of controversy again."
"One should expect that after all he is the leader of the opposition."
"But his loyalty to Mian Sahib is unquestioned."
"True, but I think it's his loyalty to Pakistan..."
"Just stop there - you are about to go into extremely murky waters."
"I don't think so."
"Do you know how many dictators have made mince meat of the constitution by saying that they are acting in the supreme national interest?"
"That's true but Chaudhry Nisar Ali's points were well made: that Faisal Saleh Hayat had some cheek alleging that he, Nisar Ali, was a lota while Saleh Hayat's credentials as a lota are well-established."
"If lota is defined as someone who blindly follows his leader - whether for good or evil - then apart from the party leaders, all our politicians are lotas."
"Lota means that but, more importantly a lota seeks power and can dump his out-of-power leader at the drop of a hat."
"Is there a time bar on it?"
"Whatever are you referring to?"
"Can we add the clause that a lota is someone who has dumped a leader in the last ten years?"
"I see, what you mean because by that definition Nisar Ali is right: Saleh Hayat is a lota and he is not."
"See it's all in the definition."
"I agree. Take another example: all the lotas have praised Rehman Malik's appointment while Raisani's resignation was premised on the fact that Malik has failed to bring an element of justice to Balochistan."
"I am curious: what did Gilani say about all this?"
"He was busy yesterday."
"Gordon Brown was in town, the guy who is roundly disliked in his own country and now here..."
"Considering our rather spineless leadership felt alright about snubbing him his scales in the international arena must be really low."
"And so political fortunes are lost..."
"Especially the inherited political fortunes."
"I hear you."
