    The Spin

    Establishment-critical narrative

    Though the ECP has been exploited by the coalition government as a tool to attack Khan and the PTI, the party hasn't actually violated the rules. The PTI has proved that there was no "foreign funding," only expats donating to the party, and the legality of this money will soon become apparent. Unlike the other parties in Pakistan, the PTI doesn't hide it's internal activities from voters.

    Pro-establishment narrative

    The ECP panel has confirmed what the whole country already knew: that Imran Khan is the biggest thief in the country's history. He has only ever been committed to the agenda of the foreigners funding him, provoking economic and political turmoil in the country. He's a threat to Pakistan and must be held accountable.
