Islam does not believe in democracy, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, or freedom of assembly. It does not separate religion and politics. It is partly a religion, but it is much more than that. It has a political agenda that goes far outside the realm of religion.

I come here not as a polished politician but as a woman who has had her fair share of life's knocks.

It is refreshing to be able to express my views without having to toe a party line. It has got me into trouble on the odd occasion, but I am not going to stop saying what I think.

To survive in peace and harmony, united and strong, we must have one people, one nation, one flag.

We must look after our own before lining the pockets of overseas countries and investors.
