Bruce the Traitor

It isn’t his unwillingness to do the right thing and resign his post as Prime Minister.

It isn’t his arrogance in defying the will of the people of this country.

It isn’t his supporters throwing their weight behind and obviously corrupt Prime Minister.

It isn’t about the fact that he lied to the people of this country.

Hell, Not even the fact that him tek we fi eediat, bout he acted as the head of the JLP and not the guvament.

It is that this man has pissed on the people who voted for him, pissed on the reputation (what’s left) of this country, pissed on all himself, pissed on you, and pissed on me, all for the sake of one shit house, battyhole, piece of shit, drug trafficking murderer inna Tivoli.

The Prime Minister has fucked over the country for political expediency, and now that his utter shame and disgrace is out in the open, further denigrates the office he clutches on to by not only refusing to resign but in displaying arrogance at defying the will of the very people he has betrayed.

This guvament which had never spared any opportunity to point out how corrupt the previous PNP admin was in their eighteen years at the helm, has seemingly, to all astonishment, eclipsed the fucked-upedness we endured for so long.

If you don’t agree with me, let me ask you, how much better does Portia look now compared to how you felt about her in 2007?

The revulsion you had for her has somewhat diminished hasn’t it?

…

What the hell does Dudus have over the JLP?

Why can’t the guvament do what it knows is right, and allow the criminal to be brought to justice?

…

Bruce has betrayed the people by lying to us, about the Mannat issue, he continues to betray the country by arrogantly refusing to apologize and resign, and ultimately bruce has betrayed any little trust the people of this country have ever had  in him as a person.

QUIT NOW ASSHOLE!

Time for a new election yet?

Short-sighted on how the global economic crisis would hurt Jamaica, proven to be nothing but a “bag a mout” on their boasts of being better able to run the country and proving yet again to valuing political power over the will of the people.

Are you excited yet?

So many out of work or have had their wages frozen while every striking thing gone up. How many of you subscribed to Audley’s pollyanic vision of how the global crisis would benefit Jamaica?

You are fools!

…

Everything they do, no matter how well intentioned, is done in the clumsiest manner possible, to be followed up by an even stupider explanation. You going to tell me that months of preparation of the budget and not one ninny noticed that they were using the wrong currency (USD not Euros) to calculate the estimates of expenditure?

How they deal with the various public sector groups with regards to wages is downright insulting, “Uptown/Downtown” not withstanding, these are the people you have to interact with, that you have to negotiate with, treat them with respect or be seen as a john crow.

…

Instead of doing the right things to guarantee that they get the support of the people and therefore stand a good chance at winning the next election, they instead shit on any remaining goodwill towards them and coddle the worst elements of the society.

As in past times when a major criminal dies and a funeral for the shithouse is held, I am quite positive that this time, members of the JLP will be featured at the funeral of the murdering, drug dealing scumbag Vivian Blake. Just like they were in attendance at Jim Brown’s good riddance affair.

Makes me sick to my stomach!

But you say: “Eediat, how you know dem really a go a de funeral?”
I say: “The dead fart was a very important member of the gang of criminals that Dudus now leads, and you know they don’t want to upset Dudus.”

We all would love for guvament to work as hard for us, to protect us from injustice as they are doing for that excrement that resides in West Kingston. Sorry I meant “PRESIDES FROM” West Kingston.

Left and right people losing their US visas. They say it’s not relate to Dudus but how much of us really believe  that?

It is a disgrace how quickly this guvament has pissed away what ever little respect this country had so that the Prime Minister does not risk losing the support of the only important  constituents in the country.

Some time ago, before he was commissioner of police, Lewin declared Tivoli the “mother of all garrisons”, the then in opposition JLP cried foul and demanded a retraction of the statement. Fast-forward to now, the JLP is doing everything possible to prove the accuracy of Lewin’s words.

There is none greater than Tivoli and the President of Tivoli would be very displeased with having to answer for his crimes, and as such dispatched the Prime Minister to seek every means possible to block the US from trying him.

You and me know that we will NEVER get this level of support from our guvament, unless of course we form a gang, tek ova a constituency, mek it a garrison, kill nuff people, ship nuff drugs and see to it the residents in the garrison vote in unison for the party of our choice, of course by bribing them with money and food procured from our illicit activities.

…

One last question, For the people that take money and food from Dons/area leaders and their ilk, what are you going to say when it’s your child that gets murdered by the thugs of the same people whose ill-gotten money you gorging on?

I Wish My MP Had Dual-Citizenship Too!

So the guvament won another buy-election, big deal. It was very clear with the flurry of activity in improving the constituency that the fix was in. And they were quite arrogant with it too, declaring that the PNP bad mind because they didn’t want the people of the constituency to get anything done for them.

But their arrogance led to a bit of stupidity also, putting the name of their candidate on brand new garbage skiffs (where they even spelled his name wrong, Gergory), to show that it was thru him that these things were done.

So a few things to take away from this:

1. The guvament in power will go to any lengths, including using state money, to shore up their advantage.
2. All talk of Jamaicans becoming politically mature is premature, as last night’s buy-election barely managed to get half the electorate to vote.
3. Political maturity is further scorned when voters are so licky-licky. Granted they needed the amenities very badly, and were probably showing their gratitude, but to think that elections are won in this way is disgraceful.
4. The PNP, despite pursuing the dual-citizenship cases in the courts, are like headless chickens when the buy-elections are announced; scrambling for candidates and then having a lackluster campaign behind said candidate, notwithstanding their lack of access to state funds like the JLP has  they put no effort in even trying to win the damned things.
5. I want the PNP to continue fighting these cases in court, because those with dual-citizenship are illegally occupying their seats as Members of Parliament, but if they are not going to give a good account of themselves then they are simply furthering the waste of the country’s money, money that the guvament says they do not have. (except for the hundreds of millions of Us dollars they are going to pump into Air Jamaica.)

…

I used to think that we deserve better than this but the licky-licky-ness of the electorate and the lackadaisical approach to campaigning of the opposition is changing my opinion.

sigh…

GSAT Results Debacle

So the Ministry of Education sent out the GSAT results to schools on Discs.

Progressive!

The documents were in Adobe Acrobat format (.PDF).

Secure format, universally accessible, good.

Some of the schools had trouble opening the documents because they didn’t have the necessary software to open the files.

Uhhh…? What?!?

The problem was that the documents were made with Adobe Acrobat 9.1.

Ok easily remedied.

“Computer experts” were called in to assess the problem and to find a solution, but they could not make headway with it.

Yeah, Right!

…

The above situation is totally embarrassing, here is why:

1. Adobe Reader is a free (as in ZERO DOLLARS) download from http://www.adobe.com Right on the front page is the link that says “Get Adobe Reader”. It is a simple install.
2. These so called “experts”, if any money was paid to them, they are criminals and need to be arrested. It doesn’t require experts to download and install free software, the fact they couldn’t figure the problem out shows they are clearly not experts.
3. All this could be avoided if the “geniuses” at the Ministry of Education had simply included a copy of the free Adobe Reader on the disc, send it with a note or letter, informing the school of what to do in order to open the GSAT results.
4. If the schools didn’t have an internet connection with which to download and install the Reader? WHY THE HELL NOT?!
5. If they did have an internet connection what was so difficult to do in order to get the free software?
6. If they were incapable of even thinking about this, didn’t they have IT staff on board to deal with these matters?
7. If not? why the hell doesn’t the ministry do something about it?
8. Why is Jamaica still scraping at the bottom of the technology curve in our most important sector?

…

I heard this bit of news on RJR this morning . If i was the management of RJR there was no way i would even air this story. Mek we look fool.

…

We really can’t be this backward.

Shake, Shake, Shake…

For a guvament with such a slim majority in parliament, they are so unbelievably arrogant.

They bully the public sector workers, yet bawl that they will not be bullied.

They break contracts, agreed to not too long ago, with not even a heads up to the other signatories, and then pretend as if the public sector workers are unreasonable.

All the while getting public relations help from their friend’s at the Jamaica Observer doing any and everything to disparage others, and their other friend’s at the Jamaica Gleaner who now ignore hot button issues on their front page, choosing instead to focus on “feel good” stories.

Oh the poor guvament. :sarcasm:

Now, in a further attempt to destroy worker’s rights in this country, Pearnel Charles is looking to break up the Industrial Disputes Tribunal (IDT), with an aim to pad the party loyalists.

This is a sign to me that there will be severe job cuts coming in the near future and this latest move is their way of ensuring disputes go their way.

This from a party with Pearnel Charles, Dwight Nelson, that had Hugh Lawson Shearer, and the great Alexander Bustamante, all renowned for their contribution to the rights of the Jamaican worker.

Here they are now, circling their wagons, closing ranks, to protect their political asses.

I am sure when the people elected the guvament they expected better.

When the world’s economy was tanking, the guvament painted a fairytale ending. This left them and us woefully unprepared for the crisis and now the only thing the guvament can come up with is wage freezes, a precursor to massive job cuts that are sure to come.

Their inability to govern properly is now being blamed on the “economic downturn”, and not their apparent ineptitude.

…

They disprove the adage that change is good. Daily.

What the HELL Were Llewellyn & Nelson Smoking?

Obviously they have displayed that they don’t quite get this politics thing.

What you think in your head nuh must always go ah yuh mout’.

…

The Commissioner telling a large faction of the police force that they should not have joined in the first place, and should not expect time off to go to church.

And it’s also the tone of his voice that displayed his disrespect for those members of the police that are Seventh Day Adventists.

…

In an obvious attempt to pander to the police who are currently challenging the guvament for  a pay increase to ease,  their pressure and to delay any industrial action they might contemplate, the Minister spewed forth some truly vile shit.

Collateral Damage?

No cop should be held responsible  for that?

What the hell?

Either this guvament is filled with dummies who just say the crap that’s nearest the front of their  mouths, or they are some cruel bastards who say anything to get elected and then couldn’t give a damn afterwards.

…

Yes, yes, yes, is the usual thing that.

I apologize for wasting your time.

Clowns

This guvament loves to go pon radio and tv and chat and chat and chat and chat. Granted discourse with the nation is a good thing, informing us of what is going on is fantastic, but is not everything dem fi chat.

The Department of Corrections, like a bunch of dunces, announced this morning/last evening, that they are cutting the number of private security guards at the island’s prisons. Sure cost cutting measures are expected in these hard economic times, but dammit man, why announce it to all and sundry? Do you not think that criminals have radios too? Do you not think that maybe this news will embolden them to act up? Next time just do what you doing and shut up.

…

Bank of Jamaica employees are not paid from guvament coffers. The Bank of Jamaica had already budgeted the 7% increase their workers are supposed to get. The Bank of Jamaica froze their wages anyway.

Why?

The lament that “We don’t have the money” does not apply in this case, so cut out the stupidity and pay the people what you were going to before wage freezing became so fashionable.

…

The Labour Day projects allocation fiasco is fresh on our minds, regardless of how innocent they want it all to seem it looks bad, it stinks of rank partisanship.

Then the clowns made things worse for themselves when Sally Porteous sent that letter indicating that the town hall meeting with Bruce is for JLP and business community.

Sigh…

…

And last week dem search plane that PJ was on, for what purpose? yet another very badly handled event that may easily be skewed politically. is no one thinking clearly anymore? Or is this the effect of replacing all public bodies with their friends and company, who do not understand protocol and are bent on catching the PNP at something?

…

I guess it’s true, sensible people avoid politics.

Who Will Save Bruce From The Bullies?

Funny how the Prime Minister can declare that the guvament will not be bullied. Hilarious when you look at recent interviews with him wherein he threatened to cut jobs if the guvament paid workers don’t stop demanding their contractually agreed on pay increase. Hell how he denied teachers their back pay with the lament; “We don’t have the money!”.

Congratulations on being flexible enough to repeal some of the stupid tax measures recently introduced, we know it hard, we know you need as much money as possible to get on with the business of the country.

However I would like to ask the guvament this: We don’t have any money you say, but you can find the money for not one or two labor day projects but three, how come?

Also, do you not think it looks very suspicious  that these projects are in constituencies where the members of parliament are facing challenges to their citizenship, and by extension their right to sit in parliament, will probably face a buy-election (like the well purchased one Vaz won), and are all JLP?

…

You don’t have the money to pay teachers, police or civil servants, but to help protect your slim majority in parliament, you will find it to fund your pork barreled endeavours.

You will not be bullied!

No one in your circle of friends could ever survive on the pittance you pay the police, yet you demand they do.

You will not be bullied!

In the event of police “industrial action”, you have the military on stand-by. I suppose your intent is to have somebody safeguarding law and order, but it sounds more of a veiled threat to the police.

You will not be bullied!

You raise taxes, freeze wages, threaten to cut jobs (which you are still going to do) in order to get the underpaid people  to back down, to “tek wha dem get”.

You will not be bullied!

Meanwhile, rumblings in the Ministry of Mining and Energy are that James the Foul-Mouthed is busy cleaning house, kicking people out of their jobs to fill them with party loyalists.

He will not be bullied!

Traitor-to-the-trade-unions has declared war on gangs, declaring that “Gangs must be crushed!”.

We would love it if he indeed was not bullied, and that he does what he sets out to do, but since the bullies in the JCF won’t get their pay then it is difficult to see how much if any lasting effect your plans will have on crime in this country.

The guvament is going to ask these very underpaid men and women to risk their lives, even more than they currently do to fix the crime in society.

If I was a member of the constabulary I would quit.

$40,000 a month is not enough to face violent gangs, not enough to help my family, now, or if I die in the line of duty. Not enough to ensure my dedication to the job.

In fact, it is just the right amount at which the criminal element  may successfully bribe me.

…

The criminals “bully” the country, the people who should be “bullying” the criminals are being “bullied” by Bruce, which makes us all buggered.

:-)

It really is fantastic to see so many Jamaicans expressing their disapproval of many aspects of the guvament’s taxation on people. From letters to newspapers, to people at conferences , and even the ones that blocking the roads. Now I don’t mean to suggest that blocking the roads are ok, just that someone was not afraid to show dissent. We still have a ways to go before we really become fully mature politically, but it’s great to see stupid taxes being lashed out against.

The tax on books, especially, drawing the righteous ire it so deserves.

Beautiful!

Thank you all.

WTF?

How in hell does this cartoon pass the scrutiny of logic?

Obviously the Observer has no sensible editors in that grand building of theirs.

Maybe the cartoonist needs to expand his horizons a little, read something other than porn, and maybe he will know that there is far, far more to read than pornography.

The guvament’s tax on books will guarantee that more Jamaicans will be as dumb as he is.

Pornographic magazines represent less than 1% of the reading material available in bookstores and pharmacies, but he would know this if he had set foot in one of the same establishments wherein his books have been sold.

Clovis has zero creativity and credibility left,  but as long as Butch ah pay him he will continue to be Butch’s bitch.

…

Besides, everybody knows there is far more porn on the internet.

Free too.

“Stupid” Taxation

The guvament downplays the impact their taxation will have on the cost of living, it is going to be very bad, but that is not the worst of it.

The thing that will have the most negative impact on the future of this country is the taxes on computers and books. These items were not cheap to begin with, as they were subject to the vagaries of the exchange rate, but to go and further tax these items is truly wicked.

Only a set of battymen would tax books!

Keeping the people dumb, stupid and uneducated, the JLP continues their war against intelligence.

Suuure you will say they freed up education, but it was poorly implemented, the teachers are still being underpaid, with foreign teaching positions being comparatively attractive. Remember when the PNP of the ‘70s wanted free education the JLP killed it when they got in guvament in the ‘80s and then promoted the Solidarity pushcart shit.

Now, clearly from IMF directives, they have taxed books and computers. But they make the distinction that schoolbooks and religious books are tax exempt. As I said to keep us stupid, to make it difficult for people to get their hands on books not approved by the guvament or the church, and therefore less likely to read books that expand our minds.

Keep us stupid to not realize when we get screwed, and not want to rise up in protest, so they can blurt out such shit as, “The Jamaican people are now more politically mature”.

Right.

Now the guvament is telling us that they are in discussions with the IMF to lay the groundwork for future borrowing.

LIES!

The IMF already directed them to do their bidding, why do you think the new taxes are as they are?

“Ol’ Pirates, Yes They Rob I…More…”

ENOUGH!

What is wrong with Bruce and Audley? Why the hell are they wanting to add further taxation on the people of this country?

When they have their way, (no if bout it), gasoline, electricity and water will suck more out of the people in the form of a sick mentality that allows the guvament to further tax us so.

Transportation costs are already near a breaking point, so imagine more taxes on it, not only will getting from place to place be more expensive, but everything that depends on the transportation of goods will go up in price too. Food that we can barely afford now is going up again, which sets every other thing going up in costs too.

Electricity is already a sinful burden on the backs of Jamaicans, further taxing it is also going to contribute to a further increase in the cost of food and every aspect of modern life in this country.

And adding a further tax on water is the insult to injury.

…

These sneaky bitches have just jim-screechy their GCT increase on people.

The cost of living will get so out of hand that there will be many starving, probably homeless people, (they just evict a bag a people offa land what dem did capture).

Dem a go mek me start bawl like Portia.

Our pay is going nowhere, each dollar we earn is able to buy less and less, we can barely afford to light the house and run a fan on hot days, we  are now thinking that we going to work one day less a week to avoid the transportation costs, and what does Bruce and Audley do?

They want to tax the last bit of dignity out of us.

Sure you may say I am just being hysterical. Maybe I am, but you can barely afford KFC now, so what a go happen when the tax from light, gas and water add on pon it, AND then Bruce go tax it again because it’s ‘junk food’?

…

It’s amazing that no one sees that people who can’t afford much won’t be able to pay the extra. So food and clothes and all the other little things that made us comfy in life, we will just stop buying. When we start going to the stores less and less, buying less and less, the stores, upon seeing their income fall, will start laying off workers.

More laid off workers means less income tax being paid into the system, less taxes going into the system means the guvament will be less able to afford their programs, which means….

MORE RASS TAX INCREASES!

…

I hope I am safely in mi yard when the shit hit the fan and the frustrations of the people boil over into the streets, I hope you are too.

Hallelujah!

Will someone PLEASE tell Portia fi stop wid the religiosity?

This woman is incapable of making a reasoned argument without calling on the name of Jesus or his daddy, perhaps in some idiotic belief that it will lend authenticity to what she has to say.

But she isn’t the only one, Vaz, before and after the buy-election, various other ministers and MPs and even Bruce himself.

This is the business of the country, not religion. This is Parliament, not church.

Though I must admit, the zeal party supporters display approaches religious fervor. Hell, like all religious conflict in the world, they will even kill for it.

…

Fine!

It’s a religion.

Sorry for wasting your time.

Praise be to God!

Back Pay Is Not An Increase

Guvament has been hinting, for months now, that they can’t afford to pay an increase in the wage bill, and in these hard economic times, we understand that.

We do.

But their stance on these matters seems to always involve threatening the parties requesting the increase.

tek what we give you or you lose your work!

Why must that sentiment be the first thing out of their mouths at all times?

And though people ought to be paid better, that isn’t what upsets me today.

What upsets me is the treatment to teachers, not that they aren’t getting an increase, but that they aren’t getting their back pay.

Money due them.

Money promised to them by the guvament.

Another promise broken.

But I want to go further! And I hope I don’t get myself into too deep a trouble today. I want to say that Mrs. Allwood-Anderson has publicly stated that the take-home pay of nurses ought to be doubled, and I want to publicly support that position. ~Pearnel Charles (before election)

To reiterate: This is not a request for an increase, this is money due them, that was promised to them, that in all fairness they should get!

…

Police are underpaid, and for the pittance they get I can understand why so many of them are corrupt.

Doctors are being asked to treat an explosion in the number of patients since “Free Healthcare”, their workload has shot thru the roof, and yet they are expected to make do with the pittance given to them.

When teachers leave the country to go teach elsewhere there is a hue and cry among the people lamenting the “brain drain”, (in addition to the many university trained graduates who seek greener pastures). Teeth are gnashed, gritted and ground over the shortage of teachers in some areas, and the size of the classes in others. Teachers sometimes work in some very deplorable conditions, but they do their work none the less.

Many math teachers, have not passed the subject themselves

Sure their are teachers who are either under qualified or incompetent,in the subjects they teach, but the idea of annual evaluations needs to become policy. And many a time on the news in the evenings, teachers and principals speak in the most cringe inducing attempt at English possible.

Those should go.

But for the qualified, the hard working, the dedicated among them, the ones that leaves an impression on their students long after being taught by them, it is time they are suitably awarded that which is due them.

Only a batty-hole would say otherwise.

No Comfort At All

Recently there was news that the guvament was looking to increase the GCT by a further 4.5%, of course there was the expected outcry against such an unconscionable idea at this time.

Things seemed to have calmed down a bit  and the guvament seems to have backed off that idea (may just have done so that Vaz would be re-elected), but now they plan to get their tax  by attacking “junk food”.

A high-calorie food that is low in nutritional value.

That narrows it down some, doesn’t it?

KFC, Burger King, Tastee’s, Wendy’s, Juici Patties, Island Grill, (got hungry listing those), are of course the obvious targets. What with their infamously greasy fare (I do so love fries), definitely, these bastards have to go!

Buuuut…

Hol’ on deh…

That definition also applies to cookies, chips, pastry, sodas, drinks, candy and numerous other unhealthy items that stock our supermarkets.

The last little bits of ‘comfort’ we have remaining.

But…

Hol’ on again..

Jerk pork, jerk chicken, ackee and saltfish, oxtail, and curry goat, some foods we eat here, that are often served swimming in oil. Not healthy for you, definitely high-calorie, definitely bad for you.

So will they be taxed too?

No comfort left.

…

If so, when the already unbearably high cost of these items jump by an increase in tax, does the guvament have plans to assist the large number of people who will lose their jobs?

And trust me, their will be job cuts. Cuts, after the price on these items gets so high that we as a people will just stop buying from the fast food places and from supermarkets and anywhere these super-taxed items are sold, leading to less money spent in these places, resulting in a “restructuring” of the organization.

i.e. Job cuts.

…

I get it now, the more people depending on handouts the more they can control them, so the more taxes, the less spending, the job losses, all lead to the need for assistance, and who will be there to rescue you?

Saint Bruce, the anointed…the fassy!

Everybody Pay a Go Freeze!

Oh woe are the poor members of parliament, Ministers, and heads of guvament agencies whose pay will not rise with respect to the rise in the cost of living! Oh what are these multi-millionaires to do?

Dwight Nelson, in informing the country that all these peoples salaries will also be frozen, for being part of the public service is insulting, for a couple of reasons:

• With the millions they earn, some of them up to eight million a year, they are already in excellent shape to ride the hard economic times out.
• Many, many civil servants don’t see even 10% of that a year, and they were already stretched to their limits. Some are now considering not turning up for work when their money runs out, being unable to afford the transportation costs, lunch and other things taken into consideration for getting to work. I won’t hold it against them.
• We know they are going to find some other way to feed off the public coffers, either by marking trips overseas as official, or having the guvament pay for their vehicles,  or many other perks available to them, or even perks they can create for themselves. (Like Audley Shaw and his personal stoplight out by Heroes’ Circle.

So to come and tell the people that, when you are all sitting comfortably atop the salary scale, is a bitch slap to them.

…

I can see Danville and Joan, agonizing over the tough decisions they will have to make, between keeping their current luxury cars or getting the ‘09 model..

The Buy-Election Is Over

After a well purchased victory, Vaz will now go back to parliament and his post as minister.

Nothing changes.

Bruce shows his disdain for the constitution once again about griping that the PNP was trying to “Constitutionally overthrow the government”.

If the constitution says you ought not be the guvament then you should get your ass out of there.

Until the constitution is changed, and as long as you are of the mind to obey the laws of the land, then you should do as the constitution demands.

When in opposition these same people harangued the then Prime Minister, P.J. Patterson, when he remarked: “The law is not a shackle”.

The JLP let him have it.

Mutty let him have it.

All JLP supporters let him have it.

Openly mocking and deriding him for his words, totally missing the nuance of his meaning.

Now, the JLP are gleefully living by Patterson’s words, and sparing no vehemence for being called on it.

We Might Be In Deeper Doo-Doo

The same Jamaican farmers who are amazed with the efficacy of the cheap fertilizer, may be in deeper shit than they thought, with recent hints that using this fertilizer may jeopardize agreements with our European markets.

If this is true then the guvament frigged up badly.

Their rush to undercut Newport Fersan, may have also undercut future exports, exports that brings desperately needed money into the country, money we can ill afford to do without in these hard economic times.

I refuse to believe, that they would frig up this badly.

But if a so it really go, God help we for the rest of their term in office.

25%?!? Bend Over Some More.

Dem out ah dem raas mind!

Why the hell in these hard economic times you want to rape the people of this country with a 25% increase on their light bills?

What the hell wrong wid unnoo?!

No one is getting a pay increase to deal with the massive rise in the cost of living, but we must take another one up the ass to have any sense of comfort in our homes, which, when you look at it, is no comfort at all.

Mullings in his pronouncements on the matter is only covering his ass for when the OUR approves the rate hike. Trying to seem sympathetic to the plight of the people, forgetting that we don’t all earn the millions guvament Ministers make a year.

Hell, the travelling allowance they make a year is a whole lot more than what many, many people earn. Add their various other business from which they make money, and you see where they will barely be affected by the high costs.

And you know they will soon give themselves another salary increase.

Just wait little it soon come out.

If the guvament had any concern for the people of this country they would see to it that the JPS doesn’t extract another pound of flesh from the already suffering people of this country.

Why should the people not in seats of power be required to tighten their belts but the powerful and the corporations can still gorge themselves like pigs?!?

…

The guvament has a 20% stake in the JPS, one, namely me, wonders how much, if any, of this increase would go to them as shareholders?

…

We suffer and guvament ministers are still running up the bills.

Any attempts through the Access To Information Act to get information related to this waste of money will be met with roadblocks, to keep their living high on our backs from getting out.

So tough luck!

…

sigh…

More Garbage

When Gordon-Webley was appointed as NSWMA head, she made it her duty to “get rid of the garbage” and clean up the corruption. Never once batting an eye when referring to people as garbage, and being adamant that the old ways needed changing.

So they changed out the board and cleaned up where needed cleaning up, and by the latest revelations, brought in her rubbish.

Now we are told again that there is rampant corruption, and that she will once again clean it up.

If you or I failed to carry out our duty, which then led to a repeat of the same, perhaps worse, outcome, we would be out of a job, so why isn’t this woman nursing the bruises that comes from being kicked out on her ass?

Does she have too many secrets for her contemporaries in the JLP, or are they afraid that they too would end up “disappeared”?

It is high time Jamaica is free of this blight, get her out of our public bodies, kick her out of the country, save a life.

Get rid of that pile of garbage.
