Hon Speaker, I think that you are wrong because ... [Interjections.] I just want to remind you that these members of the EFF had been suspended according to your Rules, but the court ruled that their suspension had to be lifted. That is why they are here. You could not defy that judgment and say we are governed by our Rules. So, consistency is very important. I have just given you an example that relates exactly to what you have just said.

So, this legislature here is not above the Constitutional Court because these Rules must be consistent with the Constitution. Therefore, if they are not consistent with the Constitution, they will never be recognised by those who support the Constitution. A Constitutional Court has made a ruling. It cannot be correct to call a President a thief outside, and be wrong to call a President a thief in Parliament where one is supposed to enjoy absolute freedom of speech.

So, that is inconsistent, hon Speaker. Please protect the Constitution even more than these Rules because the Constitution is above these Rules.
