Partly Facetious: PM needs to take action immediately

ARTICLE: "The Khan really needs to take urgent action."

"You need to narrow that down - I mean urgent action is required in so many different sectors, subsectors, entities, policy making..."

"This is extremely urgent and goes to the heart of The Khan's pledges."

"I guess that would mean getting Nawaz Sharif and Zardari sahib and work his way down to the rest of the corrupt..."

"Other than those who are now part of The Khan administration."

"Well two letters were reportedly sent to an offshore haven with request to reveal the Chaudhary's wealth stashed there."

"You have to give the Chaudharys their due - you can kick them publicly, you can slap them publicly, you can spit on them publicly but they aint gonna abandon you as long as you are....you are...."

"In government?"

"Well let's be a tad more accurate and say as long as you are backed by powerful forces."

"You know that's why the Chaudhrys' cousins - first, second and third - are so slim, I mean they have been forced to eat humble pie so often and lets be honest they haven't eaten quite as much humble pie as during The Khan's administration...."

"Slimming is it?"

"Very, very, slimming my friend."

"Oh so that is the urgent action that The Khan can take to resolve the issue I mentioned earlier."

"Sorry?"

"When I said The Khan needs to take urgent action I was referring to Shahzad Akbar's widening girth, in his last interview on television the waistcoat he was wearing was draped on his body like a tight fitting T shirt...."

"You reckon if he is fed humble pie he would lose weight?"

"Well let's say he has reached a status in weight gain where just one solution may not be enough but it would be a start."

"Don't be facetious."
