Hon members, before I conclude, I briefly want to say something, and perhaps say it on behalf of the Speaker, Deputy Speaker and many of us who are sitting here.
Personally, I understand the excitement and the emotions. However, I fail to understand the anger that makes us view each other with suspicion and mistrust, and even causes accusations of deceit.
I think, at times, we even want to undermine or bully the Chairperson. If we continue in that way, then we are moving towards the precipice of disaster, a very dangerous one. If we do so, we may end up destroying this institution of the people, which does not really belong to us. If that happens, then I shudder to think of the alternative.
I therefore want to appeal to members that we refrain from doing that. Let us act and treat each other as honourable members. Let us make comments that are within the bounds of civility. [Applause.]
