"So how did British parliament react once it got an extension to leave the European Union?"
"It went on holiday as per a European Union senior office-holder..."
"Ha ha, that's a good one. And need I add it reminds me of our own parliamentarians."
"Hey, you are not being fair to our selected senators and our members of the National Assembly...their daily and travel vouchers, paid for by the taxpayers, are linked to a session and many a time a session is called with no major item for discussion..."
"And then there is many a session where weighty matters should be discussed but which is postponed..."
"That is normally by prime ministerial decree."
"Decree! We don't have a dictatorship..."
"Our civilian governments are elected but the party elections are an eye wash and I reckon the biggest legacy that The Khan can leave behind is to step down and allow another to win the intra party election for the head of the party, like Nelson Mandela did..."
"Hmmm, and then South Africa had Zuma remember. Besides The Khan may have been bitten by the power bug, and is unwilling to relinquish his hold on the party."
"Partly, but I think mainly because if The Khan is not around then Shah Mehmud Qureshi and Jehangir Tareen may hold a duel to death."
"The era of duels to settle differences are over; those who believe in pirs (spiritual heads) would vote Qureshi and those who believe in the power of the buck, dollars please, would vote JT..."
"I heard there are more believers of pirs and their female..."
"Don't be facetious - there is a difference between an inherited pir and a self-developed pir and..."
"Right, anyway the Pakistan People's Party has complained of unequal treatment - the Sharif women have been merely asked to submit answers to a questionnaire while Faryal Talpur is being summoned by the National Accountability Bureau and..."
"Hey, they are comparing apples and oranges...or as Rehman Malik would say bananas and apples..."
"Hey, that's not a kosher comparison."
"Hear me out. The Shahbaz Sharif (SS) women are not in politics or taking economic decisions with respect to their personal wealth, now the Nawaz Sharif women were different and if you recall Maryam Nawaz is convicted and..."
"So Faryal Talpur has a role akin to Maryam Nawaz while the SS women are comparable to...to Zardari sahib's other sister and his daughters."
"What will happen once Zardari sahib leaves the political arena..."
"Then maybe you can equate FT with SS women."
"Don't be facetious."
