Mr Speaker ... [Interjections.] I'm not covered. With so few people in the House I did not expect "dawerende applous" [rousing applause]. However, let me attend to my speech. [Applause.]
Speaker, I want to contend that, instead of making farewell speeches, we should be taking this time to debate the very important matter of a vote of no confidence in the President. [Interjections.] But, because the Chief Whip of the ANC decided to block the motion, as being frivolous - just like the people who are shouting now - a massive controversy has erupted. [Interjections.]
Today, the ANC ululated and cheered because the judge did not rule in our favour. [Interjections.]
