Finally an article that concentrates on the results, and not on conspiracy theories.

The removal of as many bigwigs as possible, in the long term, is a good sign. Democracy means getting rid of people who have not delivered. Whether they are secular, religious, urban, rural etc. should not give them any advantage or disadvantage. The only thing that should count is whether they were honest, and whether they delivered.

The next time these gusy compete in elections, they will now know, that it is not their birthright to be elected.
