NOTE-WORTHY: A quagmire of distress

A quagmire of distress
The country has two major parties vying for power and both are so flawed that to choose one, is to land the country in a quagmire of distress.
Consider this, after 18 years of being a very vocal and vociferous Opposition one would have thought that given the chance to lead, the Jamaica Labour Party would have all the corrective measures ready, waiting and available - but not so in this case. Derrick Smith had all the solutions in the world when he was in the Opposition; now he has been given the chance to try these solutions and the man has disappeared.
Mr. Golding is so silent that I am now convinced that his once opposing diatribes were well-rehearsed writings by someone else whom he has since fired.
The only ministers making an impact so far are Mike Henry, with his brave decisive impact on JUTC; the smooth and affective Andrew Holness, and Karl Samuda. But three ministers cannot run a country - even a dying one!
