Why is the PNP participating in this Enquiry

[Lazie]

in the first place? Yes, Peter Phillips had to be represented, that is accepted, but why is the PNP there? They had nothing to do with the entire saga so again I ask, why were they allowed to be in on this? The JLP I can understand, they're the ones that hired and paid for MPP services so yes they should be there.

No wonder this thing got political. The PNP wanted to use this to gain political mileage, but with all the facts that have come out thus far has left them fighting an uphill battle. No wonder KD has been asking pointless questions for 2 and a half days. Dorothy, the SG and his Deputy have pointed to what they saw as a flaw with the request, a flaw that came about because Phillips had his ulterior motive.

Some blaming the commissioner, I see him as trying to give some latitude but its time to cut off KD and his brutish behavior. There is no way he could be hurling insults at a person we all know he has it in for .... and she wouldn't push back.

The search for the truth has decended into political theatre and now all the hypocrites are up in arms because someone pushed back against their "star" performer.

maybe the PNP is bored and looking for entertainment?

[Muadib]

The PNP are on a search for Truth..

I think that is Atkinson... KD represents the All Termite team

... but KD isn't repping Phillips. As I said, I can understand Phillips being there, afterall, he was the cause of the standoff. The PNP being apart of this defeated the purpose.

[Skeng DX]

NO PATRICK ATKINSON IS

KD IS representing the PNP which was one one the groups asking for the enquiry

[Don1]

yep I just can't see any reason why the PNP would want to participate...it is very strange

[Gamma]

hmmmm ..... and the pnp derives its' standing how? in the court case broght by dorothy lightbourne (dudus was not served i believe) portia simpson and the pnp were named defendants but it was thrown out because they had no standing.

the reason it is interesting is because, this is the kd show and adds the fuel to the fire which makes this politics in its purest form.

This is not a court case ...it is a public inquiry with some of the trappings of court....

As one of the 2 main political tribes the PNP would have a signal interest in the proceedings...hence their presence

[Gamma]

does that mean that any one can walk off the street and get a lawyer to represent them and ask questions?

the jlp needs to be there because they have questions to answer vis a vis manatt, phillips needs to be there because he has evidence to give .... from a political point of view i can see where the pnp would be interested in the proceedings ... but the standing to cross examine? has the pnp called any witnesses? are they just there to cross examine? is a little muky to me...

BUT the commissioners seem happy with it so ... i may be just whistling dixie...

Likle Brucie said it was JLP effort at batting for Dudus.

That opened the door for the PNP... although even as a legal or recognised entity they have a right to appear at any public commission.

As an individual, Lazie you could also put in an appearance and subject to the Commission's ruling also appear!

Batting for Dudus? Why don't you stop making up stuff Karl?

[Don1]

The PNP is not just interested in the proceedings...the PNP is VITAL to the proceedings. In this public inquiry the PNP can be said to represent a huge chunk of the public... at least as big a chunk as the JLP.

It's really a no brainer... which is why Lazie brought up this non-issue
