' flim run out'

I listened to the PMOTT make his statement today on the CL Financial issue. I thought he was doing quite well, very convincing with his spiel. After outlining the facts, as told to him presumably by the Minister of Finance, he then spoke about the fact that the Judiciary would be the guardians protecting and seeking the interest of the taxpayer. That got me worried. The same Judiciary which has shown itself to be an embarrassment, the same Judiciary whose head refuses to apologize to the national community and then immediately resign.
Then out of the blue came the 'blackman' talk. Where in God's name did that come from? Why did the PMOTT think for one minute that he had to say that? He is the PMOTT and we expect that he would do all within his power to ensure the rights of all the citizens are maintained at all times. What is this 'blackman' to 'blackman' talk, are these the words of a statesman? I also felt very uneasy when he said 'Trust me'. Based on the history of this whole CLF debacle, based on the history of this present administration I don't think for one minute the word 'trust' resonates with the citizenry.
Of course as soon as the PMOTT makes his statement the shareholders of CLF are stating that he got his facts wrong.
Where was the Minister of Finance? Surely he should have been there to answer questions.

So the fun continues, we cannot get the minutest detail right for the right reason!

For those of us who traverse the lower Beetham and Wrightson Rd area, near the Twin Towers one can see a long line up of trucks parked on the left side of the road. These trucks are lining up waiting to be loaded on the Tobago cargo vessel. In 2014 recognizing the unnecessary traffic that would be created by the trucks heading for the then replacement cargo vessel we made other arrangements. We fenced off part of the St Vincent St jetty area and created a park for the trucks. Once the vessel was ready to load we allowed the trucks to exit the park area and in a controlled move make their way to the port to be loaded. This required some additional supervision and management but it solved the problem of the congestion on the road, especially near the Hyatt.
There will always be problems one just needs to recognize them and deal with it.

Love how some police are refusing to wear the new addition of body cameras as part of their uniform. I would tell those officers 'no camera, only desk duty'. What stupidness is this? It is a good thing that these are digital cameras because next thing we will hear is 'flim run out'.
The Ag CoP has a lot to do to redeem himself as far as his performance goes and he needs to put his foot down and take on the Association. Its like the officers refusing to operate the speed guns and insist on ' holding a gazette paper' trying to stop speeding motorist.

Why does the local media think it is a good story to have an interview with the person who was responsible for the murder of 25 people, caused billions of dollars in damage in the capital city, destroyed hundreds of other lives and changed the country in a way we never thought could happen? Why? This person and his band of whatever created havoc, the rock would never be the same again.
This person walked away from it all as though it never happened. We might as well award him the highest honor for something, obviously there are people who think he is a hero. Now that it's not the Trinity Cross he actually may accept the honor.

The residents of Woodbrook are now being fined for putting their garbage for the Refuse Div to pick up. According to one resident the practice is a decades old one as to the time the bags of garbage are put out. The Litter Wardens say that this is no longer acceptable as the vagrants will now have access to the garbage. What is the problem here, the residents doing what they have done for the longest time or the issue of vagrants and the failure of the City Corp to deal with the vagrant problem? Where is the chained man?

Hey, it's Friday already. Tomorrow we lay to rest the 'cocoa man'. Within recent times you see a number of people, mainly young people, producing some of the finest chocolate, excellent packaging and taking the cocoa industry in a different direction. Growing cocoa and now producing a finished product, chocolate is the way to go. I am sure Pablo would be proud of the children of the cocoa!

Good night and good luck!
