Council that works for the interests of the whole community. Our
citizens expect this Council to be concerned about all matters that affect their daily life and they like to see members working together rather than wasting time bickering with each other.

We are not here primarily to play to the gallery and participate in the political
drama.
Such dramatic performance may enhance a councillor's personal image through increased media coverage or even achieve international fame, but what real benefit will it bring to the people of Hong Kong. Worse still, when it is over done, will it not damage the sense of belonging to Hong Kong amongst our citizens and reduce their confidence in the Legislative Council.
