I've seen @CMShehbaz many times using a taxi in London. He's been walking miles here. It's actually a nice gesture. One should not make fun of it. Its not coz the elites are not given protocol here but cz of low security risk. I hope ths trend wll b introduced in Pak one day. — Ihtisham Ul Haq (@iihtishamm) June 19, 2018
