“Members of Parliament should not just do what their party leaders tell them to do. They need to stand up for democracy and vote for what is best for our grandchildren and our country.”
“Mr. Speaker, here is my advice. If they want to make a difference for their grandchildren, then the members need to immediately reject the opinion of their party whip. They need to show moral courage for the sake of our grandchildren and our county. To make a difference, it is vital that every member is able to exercise their rights in the name of democracy, not merely for the sake of the leader’s power.”
