The ruling coalition is approaching the end of its term in February
This government would be the first to serve a full five-year term

When someone sacrifices himself for wrong reasons like Gilani. The sacrifice would not be accepted by the right minded people.

The Courts are not overstepping they have to decide what comes to them. The argument that the Courts are biased does not sell well, because if Nawaz Sharif and other opposition leaders have done any corruption then it is the responsibility of the government to take action because they are the prosecutors.
