"mend their ways" is a pretty lax standard.

What the drama this man shows on telephone. if someone is corrupt in your party then file a case in court against him/her. and why he is sitting abroad if he is clean and honest then come back in you people. don,t play with Pakistan like toys by sitting abroad.

It's not that suddenly he has a pure heart,he is just aligning himself to boot the Governor out under this pretense.It is true after all,he is a smart cookie who is just playing his card.

Mr.Hussain, your influential party members learn all these tricks from you. Remember in the 80's your collectors use to collect money from the students for the supplementary sheets in the examination hall. Now those small time collectors have become influential member of the party and so they go for big grab like land.
