Speaking at a meeting, the minister (bộ trưởng) declared that no one engaged in the drug trade (buôn bán ma túy) and promotion of drugs would be spared (được tha thứ) however high and mighty he might be.  

“As the Constitution (hiến pháp) says, every citizen of this country has the unabridged (đầy đủ), unfettered (tự do) right to vote,” Fudge said. “I just hope that we stop being so high and mighty that we realize (that) not everyone is like we are. Not everyone has had the benefits we’ve had.”
