Partly Facetious: Naek s resignation important development?

"So why did Farooq H Naek tender his resignation as Senate Chairman."
Published June 6, 2013

"So why did Farooq H Naek tender his resignation as Senate Chairman."
"I wasn't even aware that he had tendered his resignation."
"Well I did hear somewhere that he has and given that that particular post is the only one the PPP will retain...."
"I don't think it's an important news item anymore and the PPP stalwarts would have to do a lot more than simply resign from posts awarded by their party leader to make the front pages today."
"What is the likelihood of proper investigation against some PPPP leaders, including the President?"
"Victimisation I say."
"OK that's the plea that will be taken but there are a number of cases pending and if you recall the National Reconciliation Ordinance impacted on two major parties namely the PPPP and the MQM as well - the PPP leadership had charges of corruption levelled against its senior members while I believe there were murder charges against the MQM - cases that were like Jack Spratt's wife."
"Excuse me?"
"Remember the nursery rhyme of Jack Spratt who couldn't eat no fat but his wife certainly could and she licked the platter clean."
"I tell you spouses are a bad influence."
"Why are you being so facetious? Anyway MQM may have to follow the expression running with the hares and hunting with the hounds, support the PML (N) in the centre and the PPPP in Sindh."
"Good advice so going back to the next Interior Minister I would reckon that Chaudhary Nisar would investigate cases against those who were implicated in financial crimes during the past five years and to be fair I would urge him to look into cases against his own party stalwarts as well."
"Maybe his party leader gives him other instructions but I reckon the treasury would save lakhs of rupees with the appointment of Chaudhary Nisar as opposed to Mr Rehmania who was a frequent visitor to the UK, visits that our tax rupees paid for."
"For reconciliation purposes, besides he is still costing the taxpayer quite a bit, the court has extended security to him given the threats...."
"His party members should stop threatening him so the tax payers can save some money."
"Don't be facetious. Besides his name is Rehman Malik, Rehmania would imply a school of thought and personally I don't think there was too much schooling there."
"Dear, dear."
