"So what did you think of Shahbaz Sharif's performance?"
"This was the second time he spoke in the National Assembly, not the first."
"Yes, but this was the first that we could actually hear what he was saying."
"That's based on the principle our National Assembly operates within. You hear our leader and we will hear yours: you don't hear The Khan we don't hear The Sharif."
"Hey, by the way, has the Junior Sharif achieved the status of being referred to as The Sharif, I assume by saying The Khan you mean the undisputed leader and by saying The Sharif you mean..."
"Maryam Nawaz has been out of jail for over a week now and not a peep out of her. I reckon she has been instructed to stand down. Anyway The Khan said beware all those public servants who have the gumption to go directly to the public with their complaint and..."
"Sad that, it means what's good for the goose isn't good for the gander, I am referring to using the social and mainstream media to present a version of the truth which, The Khan hath decreed, is now disallowed for bureaucrats.

"Charter of economy SS suggested, which was welcome by Asad Umar..."
"Does Umar know that that would mean unanimity of views on how to sort out the economy... if I recall he was at pains to challenge most of the measures when in opposition and appropriately so...."
"His supplementary budget has nothing out of the box, it's taking the Abbasi budget one step forward in some matters and one step backward in others..."
"Unfortunately, the forward step is in matters which no economist can support and the backward step is in measures economists would support..."
"Indeed, but Umar is no accountant like Dar - no figure on the credit side matches any on the debit side, which incidentally is a requirement in national income accounting..."
