The manifesto did not say the opposite. We wanted reform.

The gloves will be off. The Minister has no idea of the strength of the opposition to his proposal. I hope that he, as a former Senator, will go from door to door.

I won in six general elections, and was elected on the first occasion on my first attempt.
