PARTLY FACETIOUS: PM not taking PDM threat seriously?

"The Khan has allowed the Opposition's protest assuming that few would join in and..."

"Irrespective of how many join The Khan's media team is going to say it was an abysmal failure and that no one but no one can collect as many as he can..."

"Even now with inflation high, no salary raise linked to inflation and unemployment numbers rising..."

"Irrelevant, the narrative is that no one can attract as many as The Khan can."

"In democracy there is a before and then an after being elected - the before is based on pledges and promises the after is premised on delivery of these promises."

"Don't get technical on me, you are aware of the standard operating procedures of administrations namely get the crowds together when the prime minister comes a-calling, and I am not sure The Khan realizes that this policy has not changed..."

"Ha, ha it's the same o same o I say, the Sharifs and the Zardis would bring in containers to contain the opposition protests and Container Shah littered the streets of Islamabad with containers on Monday and..."

"That's the nature of the beast - a container by definition must contain....."

"Don't be facetious - a container contains items/goods not people!"

"We are a people of adaptors."

"Ironically I went looking for an adaptor and its price has risen 100 percent..."

"It's those dratted Sharifs and..."

"Don't be facetious, anyway The Khan allowed Nawaz Sharif's three speeches to be aired on private channels and then stopped them so there is no guarantee that if the protests are large he will not change his mind and disallow..."

"Indeed that is the mark of a true....true....I want to say democracy but that is not grammatically correct; how about the mark of a true democrat."

"Not the same thing....you do realize that The Khan spent many years in the UK and married a UK citizen and....and therefore has the right to transform grammatically incorrect into correct."

"That was over 30 to 40 years ago, UK has changed since, anyway let's fire Shafqat Mehmud..."

"Hey he is a decent fellow, he is trying to make a difference even though education is a provincial subject and the government has no money to give him and...."

"I would give the position to Malala Yousafzai, she can get the world mobilized which Shafqat Mehmud cannot, I mean sometimes I feel he can't even mobilize his own party leader..."

"Not happening, Malala is more influential globally then The Khan and that's a no no."

"But...."

"What part of no don't you understand?!"
