Not a club person though. But with 29 seats you can do anything you like or so they think, hear the Dooks tonight? Such contempt, an insult to people's intelligence. This screwed up country, but where to go, we are all trapped, USA no longer the Mecca. Relief that some still think for themselves.

You have to start unravelling from the source. You hear Stalin, more come. Hear the news 60,000 gallons of fuel. They bust a TT$2.5m operation and that "business" runs in the TT$billions. But people are supposed to be stupid. All concentration on Sea Lots and Beetham.

Give a man an inch and he takes a mile, let us see what PP comes up with next, the gillible citizens have fallen for this one. But that is what 29 seats mean, we can ride roughshod on citizens and they will accept it. Gibbs is off the hook, somebody must like him, hear the stats at the end of the year to the foolish people would fall for it.

His behaviour should not be tolerated and there must be some higher authority that PSA executive general council can appeal to, what about the Minister of Labour. Seek the advice of former PSA leadership if you all do not know what to do to get rid of him once and for all. He is not above the law, public servants must begin to question what is being done with their dues. Thuggery has no place in the PSA.

Where is Verna St Rose in all of this? Is she not concerned about the half starved young black men carted off to never never land. Why of all things must these mothers talk about urination, see why they cannot be taken seriously in their plight about their loved oned.

This is an affront to the entire public service.

I would take that child and try to channel that intelligence into more constructive behaviour. Rather that classifiy her as a PNM child, insultive, damning to all children educated under the PNM regime. Michael Harris is out of place, but he was always anti PNM. Is he blind to what is happening in the Middle east, young people are expressing themselves, albeit perhaps not in the acceptable manner to older people. And a belligerent AG would frighten the child by ordering her to give herself up to the police, this country is screwing up its young people.

We the citizenry are all complicity when we patronize the business we suspect are funded by drug money. And what is so shameful is how these very people project the holier than thou attitude, the wives, children, so charitable, prayful. This country is well screwed and the end is no where in sight. We should consider the countries that are considered rogue states in the international arena. This is not a racial matter. All want to outdo the other in terms of the grab for money, even if it is drug money.
