8:37 pm
unprecedented that you come into bob bottom and you part of legislation and then benefit from the from the legislature. but everyone got up to get the billions removed, so therefore the small move to the larger movement for right. we do want bugs on foreign policy to be dictated from outside. we want people to take the decisions to be taken while their benefits are. let's have a quick look at the marine cons career. he was a public cricketer from anthropic and one world the world against india in 1900 to 2 years later, con, setup the 1st council hospital in pakistan. in 1906, he established the pakistan to the political party, also known as the p t. in 6 years later, he was elected to parliament and in 2018, his p t i party emerged as the largest block and the national assembly. and con, became prime minister the
8:38 pm
alright, let's get into it. we can bring in, i guess it in his lemme bad side as still because he's a full minister from a run cons pci party jody is on zoom. she was project packed on a political offense commentator. and also it is about we have a job aide or roman journalist parliamentary correspondent for the nation to use paper. welcome to you all a job aid. i like to start with you. first of all, just to clarify how popular is in run con in pakistan, right? now, i mean if, if there was a votes now and let you right now when he, when the mandate of the people thank you very much. con is, no doubt is a popular leader. and his popularity is you can save the disguise, the little landscape is top seater before last fund year you can say off. he was 40 doubt. i don't to 5 and a half months before, but his popularity good off. it's ok. you can see he's getting bored,
8:39 pm
more popularity with each putting day. now, he has built a narrative. after watching out it was, you can see that it was foster in the history of the parliament. he was 40 doubt is the 1st prime listed in this country. his popularity get off about his book, whatever to get off. he has started publicly meetings in different cities valve right now. the country is in a great wood unit, 3 princes. but given the circumstances, he, he's a fair bill to his narrative that he was 40 doubt, bitter conspiracy. now he has started a long march. i will see it so distinct dream. no doubt he had, he has, he had public sport b does and there is no rented, could all fit him. but we have seen many rented crowd on the market,
8:40 pm
but people are very much with him. now we will see the hall. he will, is this up on the demonstration of will he can what it in a city, if his, if he thinks if, if he, if he thinks that he will convert the demonstration into sit in ruling can leak, have decided to impose article to 44 to 45 and goal are me to tackle district, want things to live at that point. i'm just going to going to move on to now we can, we can get into all of this over the next 20 minutes or so. if i could come to, you saw some forgot bacardi. what's your center? you are a minister in iran towns party. i'm guessing from your point of view, you're pretty convinced that he would easily win an election. should it take place now? and what do you think is going to happen as a result of this much?
8:41 pm
well, i don't think it's the debate. i think my colleague forgot to mention that we've just had to buy elections in german elections and been job in fact all over the country. we won widow with overwhelming majority both times. the latest one i think was a so new a couple of weeks ago men would there was about 68 by election of which we went, ended up winning a seat and many terming it as a referendum. so i think there's absolutely no debate about who went the next election based on even the 2 bi election that i've just passed. it's just a question of how big is the majority to be? hence the government at the moment doesn't one snap elections that doesn't want to call for early elections at all because looking at the results and they're tried to challenge and twice. and these pulls that up just happened the past couple of months and seen the results. so clearly they're doing everything to count from
8:42 pm
disqualification to life, threat to corruption charges. you name it. there's nothing really left that they can tackle them on hand, the movement to the streets with the people's mandate and if at the end of the day that's all that matters is what the people of fox on one, not what any. do you know what any other circle country or policy want? it's what the people of fox on want to indeed. all right, well elections. not, of course, june until august of next year, august 2023. you say that the government does not want snap elections? shit. has put out judge, you think iran con, with this march could change out? he could force these elections to be brought forward if that conceivable. thank you very much for having me on your show. i do not know to be honest because in decisions are not meet, treat actually decisions are made behind the close. don't why the military
8:43 pm
is because to political, been gone for the last year and him around came into politics and then he, his image was managed by the military again, the machine he came to power with the help of the military. he was the guy in brown and the military somehow had c thinking and same util ideological or that actually they weren't pockets on the military. you want it centralized bucket bug with a strong center, strong army and religion as a binding force and the wrong can also be in the scene. so that's why iran and military one of those for a long time. but they broke up their relationship was spoil because iran
8:44 pm
wanted to point out a new army chief who is a part of next month on 29th of november. and he wanted someone, he thought he would go away and that a division between and the military. and now iran is challenging the military top ross who are in control. ok. so let me get a spin back to the question that i do think that by conducting it, by organizing this mass march, that he can create a situation whereby the elections are brought forward that there will be not relations. do you think the government could be forced into that position? i don't think so. even when i doesn't get it backing from and see, you know, force is that from that, i mean it is the military and intelligence it is use to states
8:45 pm
such marches. but this time, i don't think so. and iran claim that it is means central key is that he wants the independence and freedom from london and washington. it's an oddity that iran was prime minister office. kevin, it was including our friend lucky because we're british nationals and was somewhat american nationals, and one of them, his national chief, national security advisor was working on the american military establishment. so today, the friend, a friend of both johnson and donor trump pakistan east that he wore independent from london and washington. okay. mr. because you need to come in the i think the call, i don't know the gentleman but where he is. i think it's quite an area, it is a long run, which really didn't random really come up to any of the answers that you're probably looking for the at the end of the day, like i said, it doesn't really matter what anyone really said. it's what the masses of bucks on
8:46 pm
one, if the mon han was removed from premier ship in bucks on, due to a no vote confidence which we as a party believe, was an into, was inspired by an international conspiracy. and there was a lots of horse trading that took place that people took on the street the same very nice number that i've never been seen before. unprecedented numbers. this was something that a part you can organize. it wasn't something that i could have done or could have done. it was just organic and the people took the streets. last 6 and a half months. you're seeing the biggest amount of numbers come out on the road, anti government, and even to an extent, upset with the army, saying that why haven't they intervened when they can see such injustice being done? especially when we go on about the cipher from the united states, which we thought was, was completely inappropriate. and it was threat issue to are sitting in best or better. but it's interesting, it's already about to do. sure,
8:47 pm
as his point is interesting, that given the power of the army and that the i spy agency to take on the army, i him are kind of be very critical of me to take on the army in the way that he has publicly criticize him. it's a bolt strategy, isn't it? what do you see? it's not the army that he is criticizing the uk in its entirety. my friend gave his best to bits into it. the only thing that he really was correct about in a role was that he is that decisions and boxed on for far too long have been made behind closed doors by 4 or 5 people that are making decisions for wonder in 20000000 population. then not by the mandate of the people. now we don't mind if the current government, whichever government comes into power for that matter, as long as the people of boxes have elected them. so if there's no problem with any of the political parties, let us be political. let's leave the army aside for one second and say politically, if you're so confident, so strong, and you believe that you've done
8:48 pm
a good job and people want you. there's no way you wouldn't one of the gentleman government because right now you don't have it. this political instability, economy is crashing. you can't get a good economy with political instability. there's a prime minister who's only the prime minister around a 40 to 50 mile radius. ok, rest of it or you know, is all around home. i want to bring in a job to read moment and again, a journalist with a nation newspaper and said americans criticisms of the army. and the ice agency did force them to come out and defend themselves. we had despite chief coming out and the fact that he did it quite unusual for him to do that shows that nervous about the situation doesn't well, as do, i think in on fun has opened different for france. and there is a contradiction in his narrative. right? now today he is contesting by election and 45 from them. and at the same time he
8:49 pm
is heading long, much toward islam. but for for snap balls is it, it isn't it contradiction. my colleague, my friend as a feeble, cloudy, vill onset about this. and other thing is that if you are really interested in by election gender election, you have to you have your enjoying power in the k b, k. and also in punjab, if you choose to. and blog resignation from ideas to prevent is there will be a situation that government has to an agenda election at on the i i'm, i'm confused. get it why iran card is not opting that option is if you've got to come back your look as far as it goes for news branch is
8:50 pm
very genuine and legitimate question that why do we can test by elections if we're not interested in government? and we don't want to be part of the national assembly by the way, the election he just mentioned. now the one that's happening and current, the latest results are that were 3 times ahead of any other party. so we won that cedar. but the point of contesting them is that if you don't, then what happens is that their majority in parliament, they will just keep going. just proving a point in ra hon made themselves from all the seats to a point that the country is behind hon. and if you throw any election towards us, we would win it, which we have done so. so this was just another seat which has now come up and we wanted again. and just showing that the country were continuously vote for him. although he said that even if he wins the election seat, he will be attending parliament and you hand in his resignation whenever he wants. but people are still willing to vote for him so that that means the nation is not
8:51 pm
going for the normal politics of constituency. politics that i want my m p to make me my dam on my better street roads. they're voting for him. ron hahn for his belief and his ethos as far as it goes for why do we not? why are we participating in the government in k p, or in been job or g b for that matter and resign? it would cause general elections if we had a full belief that it would cause general elections the very next day or soon after we would have done so. but unfortunately in boxed on the dynamics are so twisted that the so much horse trading that when you, when you resign is very easy for people to linger through 2030 and piece from your side onward. and like to have the national assembly where we have resigned form. but right now they're in an assembly. i mean, just picture this there in a national assembly at the moment. all the parties combined except for the largest
8:52 pm
party in the entire country. just just images that the national assembly is running right now without p t i's representation at all. so the largest political party, or the only national party in the entire country, is not in the assembly yet. there is a government that's exactly our point. ok, yes you are the authorized, although we are not sure if we can come to you to to respond to that. and also do you feel that we're like to come to you? i'll come back to you in a 2nd job. but sure. first of all, respond to that festival and then do you think we are on the brink, potentially a big change here in the way pack is done is wrong. i find it very amusing what those people just being a bit. you know that school and living in a long time. he knows that in recent months, bitten has, you know, change of civil prime minister and they all were out of business because of no
8:53 pm
consequence move in on was not been out of the office. well, under a medically shape out of the way, i'm not, he was removed from office to a new comparative move and the majority of work is against p. so he worked remote legally and the next election is due in august. but he's not waiting for that. he's not dissolving as my friend, it's not dissolving to promises. he has to come and he's, he's devoted to provincial assembly. gentleman lesson will be more likely, but in wrong hog why an election immediately. and he is using this to, you know, kind of state and this is not democracy in a way that you'll use for you use bar. and you said you don't regard when when the prime minister, he was not willing to that much. he was not picking parliament if he was,
8:54 pm
he had not interested in the involved. i got the bottom and he is someone who believes in a single person which is on the stomach. he has said explore many 5 the prison military. and now he tells us that he is interested in actually does not believe in following the fall democracy i mr. car gonna come to you. it's a response to that in just a 2nd. but at 1st i missed from a job at rome and you want to come in well, will people come? he has just mentioned that to pakistan that he came south b t. i has no representation in national assembly, but i will correct him. 31 law makers are representing, are currently in national assembly, and one of them is upwards should opposition leader and other public account committee chairman, when they are, you can see it, they are decedents,
8:55 pm
they are not there. and, and other 125 law makers who have 200 as the condition i don't to 5 or 5 months before national assembly speaker has called them so many times to come and verify it. there is a condition by they are not going to it going to verify there is a condition. so there are many if 10, but they are bad. they did open on something that did is a pressures the dear signatures are not incorrect on the read conditions. so you can see that there is no representation in national assembly. okay? so i, because i, because you and also on that, but also on the point made by roger that iran calm was removed from office legitimately. he is dictating what he wants. he's not being a democrat,
8:56 pm
nova alarm for that quite easily. i mean, mister jarvis points some far more. i think come relevant. look. mr. m. ron hahn is the one person that for 26 years or 24 years, has set up a democratic party in boxed on single handedly not handed down from his father or mother or anyone else. he's created it himself. i don't think there's someone more democratic in the country he has. he has to, he has elections, party elections. from within, his always stood for democracy, his never complimented dictatorship. he stood with general machine one time and a referendum after that, criticised it because he thought he was going to was dep democracy. so it's, it's a no debate about who's actually the biggest democrat, he's stood up in parliament many times on, on all issues and use parliament for the right reasons. as far as it goes, mr. job, it's point a look at the end of the day that people he's mentioning that are in
8:57 pm
assembly. they did when they're election with under the amount han and under my hands party. that's true. but like i mentioned earlier, this horse trading, the other gentleman mentioned about i think he had an issue with me being a dual national time now or not. but he had it and he mentioned england changing prime minister. so many times, if england was aware of any horse trading and money being exchanged hands for votes within the national assembly, people and parties would be struck out and not be allowed to participate in politics. her again, her can people that left us the representation that left us still sitting in parliament, all took money and they all took money and got paid and stayed in and stayed in the party. if they were so clear, why don't they resign and stand for elections independently on their own name? not on the name of them, ron. ha. okay stan, we're gonna have to leave that ticket. we're going to have to leave it there. thank you, will no doubt the coming days will be critical times in pakistani politics. thanks
