Well maybe the Governor-General should tell him fi RESIGN

...Then again, perhaps the GG himself need fi resign.

Mi caan tek anymore of it. Why the R-A-$-$ people like hang onto POWA so!

The most likely outcome I see from such a development is :

Disputed ballot box counts,

Close seats having both candidates declaring victory,

Months of distraction and eventually another election within a year.

I just CANNOT see them finding a way to share power. Perhaps I am too negative but it is justified I think.

even that murkiness would be welcome because it would simply mean that it could not be business as usual for jlpnp.

[Bricktop]

When we rid the parties of the "Gunman Huggeruppers" (sic) and bring in new blood who mandate "de-garrisonization" (sic), will we roll on the floor cowballing when innocent lives are lost in said "de-garrisonization" (sic)? JFJ?

[Islandman]

I am not sure I would share your joy in such a result.

Is the consitution even clear on what happens in such a case?

[Mosiah]

oh, i have to worry. i know not when bruce will send the grim reaper for me.

[Gamma]

i don't think so, it's those blinders. not to worry though...

[Hortical]

It is a sad state of affairs and those criminal politicians will only change their ways if they have no choice.

[Mosiah]

getting rid of a narco-pm?!? you ask if that is a step forward or backward?

maybe a not understanding your question.

[Gamma]

actually i would be VERY happy to see such a result! very happy indeed.

[MdmeX]

.... And what if there is an election, and we get results like Great Britain. Then how do we proceed?

================================================== ====

What is the mood in Jam. now?

[Gamma]

is that a step forward (giagonnally or vertically) a horizontal step or a step backward?

[Mosiah]

that was all the country wanted, for bruce to resign.

but he has received the unanimous backing of his cartel of narco-ministers, so the whole lot of them need to vacate also.

[Mosiah]

politics has always been a matter of the lesser of two evils. until portia demonstrates to the world that she'll do everything in her power - lie, deceive, cover up, spend taxpayer funds - to protect whatever don, then she'll get my vote over an unrepentant, unequivocal, gangster, shameless, contemptuous, narco-pm as orett bruce golding.

[Islandman]

Given a choice of all bad options, I think the least worst one is for Bruce to resign but the JLP to stay in power for now with a new leader.

It would be the first for a PM in JA, and would sent a powerful message to BOTH parties that "tings can't gwan so"

Unfortunately given the razor slim majority the the JLP has, it might still force an election if there is disunity among thier ranks. I hope it does not because the last thing we need is to put the PNP back in power this soon after thier orgy of greed corruption and incompetence. rhatid.
