ARTICLE: "I simply cannot understand this debate on how to get Nawaz Sharif to return to the country."

"I guess The Khan got angry looking at the resurgence of the former First Daughter and one of two aspirants to the position of head of the party and...and...."

"She has to keep the party together if she is to succeed - so far I see only those she is responsible for elevating to positions of power during the just completed PML-N tenure surrounding her during her interviews..."

"But she gets a lot of publicity - more than Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and certainly more than First Uncle though let's be honest he appears to be shunning publicity these days."

"She is eye candy and BBZ is less so and Shahbaz Sharif is even less than BBZ..."

"What is this, a mathematical problem: M is more than B which is more than S therefore M is greater than S."

"Ha ha indeed anyway going back to what I said earlier, I cannot understand this debate on how to get Nawaz Sharif to return to the country."

"Well they have written letters apparently to the relevant UK authorities and I reckon if Nawaz Sharif simply cites the apex court observations on political victimization and National Accountability Bureau...."

"If The Khan, an honest man, tells the British government that NAB is not under his control and that the PML-N and the PPP appointed the chair of NAB...."

"Ha, ha!"

"What's so funny?"

"Just goes to show the flawed joint appointment decisions by Sharif and Zardari..."

"Indeed so who would you rather they had selected?"

"Split the tenure into two: first The Banana Man - Rehman Malik - and then Chaudhary Nisar...."

"The two opted to become federal ministers during their party's tenure, besides Chaudhary Nisar is out....."

"And you reckon Chaudhary sahib would have been as bad as the current NAB Chairman from Nawaz Sharif's perspective?"

"Well no he would have been much better than the incumbent as far as Nawaz Sharif is concerned though Ayyan Ali may have had a hard time..."

"Don't be facetious."

"OK but he would have been anathema to Maryam Nawaz."

"True, speaking of Maryam Nawaz I would just like to say to The Khan and Company that one way to get Nawaz Sharif to return is to get Maryam behind bars - I mean even she has said she was not allowed to go abroad with daddy because she was kept here as a hostage so use the hostage as a hostage."

"Hmmm that's true."
