FROM A NEXT SITE

Bruce resign because if will be difficult for him to mount a vigorous defense in new york southern court answering obstructing justice re the dudus case.
The recent wikileaks reveal that Bruce sent Vaz lightbourne and Finson to meet with dudus ,which is a violation of MAT, that is how dudus came into possession of the documents requesting his extrication.The Federal prosecoutor thatke these breeches seriously and thet will pursue the appropriate remedies.
I HAVE NO SYMPATHY FOR VAZ AND FINSON, BUT I FEEL SORRY FOR MISS LIGHTBOURNE ,SHE GOT CAUGHT BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE.

Actually, I think the PM is doing the honourable thing in stepping down. He clearly doesn't have the confidence of the Jamaican people necessary for him to continue in that post. It is sad indeed, as deep down this man probably loves the country, and has its best interest at heart, but in a real democracy he would have been forced out of office many months ago. We should resist placing any single person above and beyond the interest of the people for whom he/she is elected to lead.

Quite frankly, Lazie, I think Mr. Seaga's entrance into Jamaican politics, when ones weighs its pros and cons, has got to be one of the worst things to occur in Jamaica's political history. We are still yet to recover from the politics of hate, and culture of violence which, in my opinion, he was one of the chief architects.

The next question is, "Why, Tufton, the most qualified person, will end up not becoming the PM of the country, and we probably will end up with a person who clearly is unqualified, at least in my opinion, becoming PM, if the opposition gets elected?". The reason probably lies in the fact that Tufton does not have a garrison, or a prominent enough garrison. This is clearly one of the lagacies of Edward Seaga's idea of democracy. We will be paying the price of Seagaism for many many generations to come. Quite sad indeed.

i take it you don't know the meaning of the word. look it up before commenting further.

seconded!

if, and only if the economy is the only means to determine success of a pm... what about the other requisite components for the growth and develop a nation... education, healthcare, housing, infrastructure development...

.. thats the benchmark Baddaz. If you have an economy that is thriving you can easily provide funding or better yet provide a better budgetary allocation for the sectors you mentioned.

Anyway ....

1. education: more children have access to education up to the secondary level. The ASTEP program has been implemented to assist students who've fallen behind. Those with student loans now have lower interest rates plus longer period to repay the loan. Are things perfect? No .... but give credit nuh?
2. healthcare: more people now have access to healthcare than b4. There is an issue with obtaining medication ... that needs to be addressed and those that have heath insurance should pay via their insurance provider .... thats something I was hoping they'd have corrected. Is it perfect? Again ... no ... but ppl are receiving heathcare.
3. housing: I must admit I don't follow this sector. Lets put it down to the gov't not doing anything re housing. Know what ... yuh right bring back portia.
4. infrastructure development: Lets look at JDIP, but since the PNP insist on sabotaging the project ppl gonna want to look elsewhere.

So you wanted them to confront a leader they disagree with and be banished to the wilderness? They waited, and now he is out. Unfair statement.

[Mosiah]

Of course it makes no sense. How can they support this complete clown of a PM!!?? And that is why their new leader may have a very tough time getting my support. Time for someone from the JLP to step up and tell Bruce, time to get the phuq outta here! Stale goods, rotten to the core! He needs to go NOW!!! Nuh bodda wait fi di conference. Pack yuh damn tings and get the hell out of Dodge! Sick a yuh man! LEAVE!!!!!
