Politics

 My fellow Trinidadians, what is happening to our beautiful country? I am shocked by the utter disregard for the suffering of our people that has been shown by our government.

We are so racially sensitive that once “outsiders” or “others” criticise our race, tribal leaders immediately train their snipers at the messenger, in an effort to obfuscate the message.

Recent statements made by prominent PNM officials show pangs of political guilt over the sad state of its “natural constituency” (to borrow Danny Montano’s expression).

History was made yesterday - at least in Trinidad or perhaps the democratic world. The Speaker of the House Barendra Sinanan has found a prima facie case to refer the Government of Trinidad & Tobago to the Privileges Committee of Parliamentary Ministers for a determination of contempt of the House.

There is probably more corruption under the PNM than any other government. The machinery is well-oiled and runs smoothly, and unlike the UNC, it isn’t concentrated in the hands of a few but spread a little more evenly, across the board.

The public service is supposed to be the engine for the implementation of government’s policy.

Friends Countrymen,
Once again I am baffled by the political hoopla from our citizens, this time from the firing of Dr. Rowley. Even opposition parties have been unwittingly caught up in the spin.

There is a growing awareness among many that Dr Rowley was dismissed in very questionable circumstances.

Sometimes they say a "picture is worth a thousand words" and that has proven to be so true; then there is another saying "actions speak louder than words" and that too has over time proven to be true as well...without question...Mr. Speaker?...!
