  1. What about the removal of RBs immunity?This should be top of the agenda in parliament!!

  2. The majority of our MP’s are coward bench warmers that rarely participate in debate!
    In fact there are many issues from our communities that can be raised in parliament but our MP’s don’t bring them up.
    We have been waiting for a constitution for years and in that time how many bye laws hae MP’s actually debated in order to simply improve our lives whilst we are waiting for the illusive constitution!

  3. you pathetic PF craziest , there are more important things than immunity
    immunity won’t improve the economy, bring medicines in our hospitals
    improve our education, get a life leave RB alone he left you a big surplus
