Partly Facetious : The Khan's Wife Number Three never said she admired Ataturk
"The Buzz stays or the Buzz goes?"
"I reckon he stays, the bill was passed by the Punjab Assembly raising salaries of all Punjab Assembly members on 14 March and The Khan did not summon him for four days so no urgency means no dismissal."
"Hmmm, but going back to the bill I would like to point out that the jewel in the crown was given to the indefatigable leader of the House who reportedly read it five times...."
"Perhaps, quite wrongly and I say that with a cartload of salt and not just a pinch, the members of the Punjab assembly thought that unless they sweeten the pot for The Buzz he would alert The Khan before it was a done deal and the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf cadres would have been forced not to support it."
"Sweeten the pot! It was more like using ten kilos of sugar to make one kilo carrot halwa."
"Ah but what a halwa it was, too bad The Khan doesn't like sweets, but as I said The Buzz reportedly read the bill five times..."
"Two things my friend, first the bill was in English and The Buzz is slightly challenged in that language and second remember the song by Lionel Richie, three times a lady, so I guess five times means the gender is male and... and wait..."
"No I am not going to wait for your sarcasm - you and I both know that The Buzz does not know how to interact with women and children, I mean in backward areas this is the norm and you don't have Shakespeare's in rural backward areas of South Punjab..."
"If I recall correctly, Ataturk, the father of the modern Turkish nation introduced constitutional reforms in 1924 which led to the secularization of Turkey, discouraged the use of the head scarf though he did not ban it, this was done in 1980 through legislating public clothing regulation and Ataturk also encouraged his daughters to seek jobs in fields where women had not worked before and..."
"But The Khan's Wife Number Three never said she admired Ataturk, she mentioned Erdogan who has allowed women to wear the veil again though the Turkish veil does not cover the face but anyway let her be - she has not imposed herself on the public, and so let her be."
"I agree and apologize but I would like to state for the record that if The Buzz's selection is based on spiritual guidance then he ain't going any time soon. Chalk the bill down to lesson learned and..."
"Sadly I agree."
