The JLP indicated that if returned to power

[Lazie]

they will resume hanging. I guess now crime will decrease cause after hearing the JLP won...


... Three prisoners on the run

Three prisoners are now on the run after cutting their way out of the May Pen Police lock up in Clarendon.

Those on the run are Sheldon Grant and Duane Reid, both charged with murder, as well as Shane Henlon who is charged with robbery.

It is reported that shortly before 7:30 Monday morning, the men were not seen in their cells.

According to reports, the prisoners escaped by removing two steel bars from a door following which they then removed a lock on a gate.

The men left the compound by leaping over the perimeter wall at the back of the police station.

(of course the last sentence bout crime decreasing was Lazie loving almshouse ... suh nuh tek it too serious).

I am waiting for them to roll back the toll on Highway 2000. And I expect that, within the fist 100 days, we shall have a fixed election date and what else?

...sadly, you shall be disappointed to see PJ shall remain in Jamaica!
PJ may have resigned from being an MP...but, PJ is still a politician! ...and politicians say all manner of silly things believing the people are silly...and, silly people will fall for their silly ways.

Unfortunately the people more often than not prove
they are not silly!

Mosiah, did they say they were going to roll it back? Didn't they say they would approach the owners to renegotiate?

Having a fixed election date requires constitutional reform doesn't it? And for that to take place a 2/3 majority has to vote on it. Thats why I'm sorry they didn't get 40 seats.

it nuh matter to me whether it stays or goes...is whey pj seh and ....trust me on this, if it was bruce that seh suh unnuh woulda want put him 'pon the plane unnuhself!

[Mosiah]

Maybe they should have thought about those possibilities before flying off at the mouth, no?

Can't wait for those talks with NROCC to take place!

So .. they're in a position of damn if they do ... damn if they don't. Based on the results last night, the people of portmore are comfortable with the toll.

Mo, he said he would go negotiate. Not a promise as contracts are binding. Also, it seems the Portmore people love the toll, since they voted for 2 PNP MPs. LoL

Also, the fixed election date pledge has long ago been modified to be fixed max period between announcing the election and actually calling it! That requires a lighter legislative passage.

Another point.

People seem to be in shock at how gracious and engaging Goldings speech was last night. However, he said nothing new! He has been saying this for a while now and the essence of it is in the manifesto!!!

Heck, there was even a columnsit writing about it, saying that Golding wanted to give too much power to the opposition.

Good politicking by Bruce. If he had lost, he had set the tone for his inclusion in managing. If he won...damn he did win...he it was (is - sigh) holding out the olive branch. If it works - he wins more ammunition to be returned to power. If it does not work - it is the opposition PNP's fault and more ammunition to return him to power.

Win-Win situation for Bruce!

[Karl]

it nuh matter to me whether it stays or goes...is whey pj seh and ....trust me on this, if it was bruce that seh suh unnuh woulda want put him 'pon the plane unnuhself!

dem wudda...mi wudda seh - politicking! same difference, nuh matta which-a side.

[Assasin]

Bruce have other things on his mind right now than returning to power. How about cutting crime and free education?

He achieve them and grow the economy him nuh fi worry bout politics.

[Gamma]

ok ... play di game....

[Mosiah]

How simplistic, to believe the people of Portmore considered this election a referendum on the toll - sigh.

How about the fact that they have a house "built by the PNP"? Could that have weighed more heavily in their decision-making yesterday?
