A near-midnight address to the nation. That’s in martial law territory. Oh wait...
Lol, within a minute he suddenly freezes and then his audio goes out. Incompetence thy name is PTI.
There was no audio visual in Riasat-e-Madina anyway.
And he’s back. Lol, did he just continue speaking while everyone cut away?
Groan. It’s a lecture on Islamic history.
He’s now telling us why democracy doesn’t work in Pakistan. Ironic.
‘Main ne innka kya bigaarra hai?’ #NewSlogan
It’s not about the budget though he says he will come to it. Right now it’s a brief political history of Pakistan.
Why is he so flustered? Obv the protests have got to him.
So far he’s mentioned Ayaan Ali and “Shehbaz Sharif’s second wife”. Such pettiness. But if anyone mentions his daughter, he gets upset.
God this is a ramble. PTV guys who screwed up the audio/video probably thought who’s gonna miss a minute here or there.
Apparently we should be grateful that we don’t have to take sacks of money to buy double-roti as in Venezuela. New slogan: ‘At least we’re not Venezuela.’
‘High powered commission under me to probe last 10 years’ only. He claims he’s not under pressure any more.
‘Three houses of corruption.’ Wait, who’s the third?
‘I live in my own house’ Yes, we know, all 300 kanals of it bought benami.
And it goes off again. God, what a disaster.
Lol, the speech is continuing but nobody’s really sure which section we’re on right now.
‘Meri jaan bhi chali jaaye’ = Yeh kursi bohat mazboot hai
The obligatory reference to cricket - stadiums where 100,000 people were abusing him. Could only mean Kolkata’s Eden Gardens.
‘Nichlay tabqay ko ghar de sakein apni chhat ke oopar’ WTF is he saying?
Repeats fake news about highest charity giving in Pak
‘Iss ko apna mulk samjhein’ he says to Pakistanis who can’t travel anywhere anyway.
‘Aayein apnay mulk ko utthayein’. Hopefully not the funeral. And that’s the end of the ramble.
