« on: August 17, 2020, 04:07:20 PM »Devant: Kamla 'mamaguyed' UNC by calling for recount
STACY MOORE (NEWSDAY).
UNC activist Devant Maharaj said the party's leader, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, has ‘mamaguyed’ members into thinking that a recount in certain seats in the August 10 general elections was a chance for the UNC to win.
Maharaj said many of the members were holding on to such illusion and failed to accept defeat. He said these games must stop.
“I am not a PNM and I have no intention of joining the PNM. I have challenged the PNM in and out of court for many years but I recognised that this was an electoral race where there will be one winner or one loser and we lost.”
The former minister said Persad-Bissessar, who has not been seen since the general election, has shown her deficiencies as a leader.
“When you listen to some of the members speak, they were holding on to hope that the recount could go our way and we could get government. This is false.”
Maharaj said Persad-Bissessar must come to terms that the party has lost the election.
“We lost and I feel the mature thing to do is to congratulate the winner and move on. She did not show that sense of maturity and, I think, in this last couple of weeks she has highlighted her leadership deficiencies by this ridiculous recount which has stalled the country.”
He added, “This strategy of also demonising the EBC as working for the PNM is disingenuous. When we won the local election the EBC was not under attack and how come now when we lost the general election, the EBC is a PNM. These games must stop.”
Maharaj said the focus now should be on dealing with covid19.
“We have a crisis here. We are at a war with an unseen virus that can kill all of us. It is time for us to put politics aside and work with the government."
On the weekend, attorney and UNC member Kelvin Ramkissoon called on Persad-Bissessar to step down as political leader.
In a WhatsApp conversation, Ramkissoon said, “I don’t even want to watch the news conference. In a proper democracy when a leader losing an election the proper thing is done.
“They don’t hold on. That’s the essence of the Westminster model. The leader knows that."
Ramkissoon was election agent for Ahloy Hunt who has demanded a recount for the St Joseph seat which he lost to incumbent, Health Minister Terrence Deyalsingh.
“The question is not who will take over. Leave that to those who constitute the entity and move on with dignity while you still have it.
“Better yet, show some magnanimity and vacate your own seat and give it to someone else. You will save yourself and save future generations.
“Further time will just erode trust and confidence and chisel away at the remaining goodwill which the party still has and cause people to gravitate towards the continuous winner.
“The maxim if you can’t win them, join them may pervade in the minds of person.”

General Discussion / Re: Racism in T&T - The Thread.
« on: August 15, 2020, 02:10:55 PM »Christian churches reject racism in T&T
NARISSA FRASER (NEWSDAY).
THE Open Bible Standard Churches of T&T (OBSCTT) and the Pentecostal Assemblies of the West Indies (PAWI) say they are "rejecting racism in all its forms." The latter described it as a "social cancer."
In a press release, OBSCTT sought to remind the public that God loves everyone, "having created every one of us in His image."
"...Racism has shown itself to be very destructive in every nation where it has taken root and been allowed to flourish, damaging populations in many nations. Even though it is natural to have an affinity or a special love for the particular ethnicity or race into which we were born, that affinity should not be the basis to look down upon, ill-speak and ill-treat, harm, endanger, or destroy others of a different ethnicity or race."
It said TT, with its many races and ethnicities, has generally been able to exist harmoniously "despite occasional flare-ups," but added that the most recent attempts to cause racial tension following Monday's general election "must be stopped before it goes any further.
"As a result, we call upon all of us to reject racism, and not to fan the flames of racism but to live consistently and constantly by and teach mutual respect and appreciation for each other."
PAWI shared similar sentiments, saying it "condemns, with all resolve, the manifestation and expression of racism from our multi-ethnic communities, political and religious divide of our beloved nation of TT."
It called for the "elimination and de-escalation" of race rhetoric, adding that the Pentecostal message speaks against five forms of supremacy tendencies: regiocentrism, sexism, ageism, racism and classism.
"We believe that the coming to the front of this social cancer threatens the very fabric of the aspiration of our society to be one of racial harmony, law and order. We, therefore, raise our voices with the full awareness that the insipid presence of racism has plagued the church from its inception, as evident in God’s rebuke to Peter for referring to Gentiles as common and unclean, Acts 10:14, 15.
"We, therefore, call on our political, religious and civil leaders to take the charge and put to death, and to de-escalate the race conflict, rhetoric and forms of institutional racism. We call on our beloved citizens to build our nation to be a place of harmony, peace and stability."
Leah we start calling on specific culprits and have them be identified and apologize and stand up for the crap they are doing- Have people define what they say and mean- still checking the dictionary for what is meant by a " blank man"

As a leader leaves little to be desired - Like the present president in USA, it speake volumes to all who support and provide a mandate that is based on lies divisness , degradation and corruption. Shame shame on them that not one of them could stand up for principles and denounce the bs that is contaminating and spreading among the rank and file. I listened to their young PRO and could see a future for her but without guidance or a moral compass she like all the followers will be just following blindly a path bent on the same hatred. We need leaders who regardless of party politics or affinity, will stand up if leaders are moving along an immoral or unethical path.
Still trying to find out :
what is a " blank man"?
What is the intent of referring to his right honourable Dr. Keith Rowley with due respect as befitting of a prime minister?
Simple acts of respect is sadly lacking form our leaders
Time to bring respect back in the way people speak or refer to others
The issues is not whether blank or black was used - why was either used in the first place.

« on: August 15, 2020, 08:03:09 AM »All I have to say is, don't take one of our famous mottos, " All ah we is one" for granted. As I have said on a QRC post, ever so often we have to revisit this statement. Is it true? Was it ever true ? We have never had Afros and Indos face each other in the streets. I would not put my head on block that this cannot happen. There is too much guns floating around in the country. The hard work is now, while we can put a damper on it. Don't wait until the fire start to find water to put it out. This may not be the same situation. Remember how Abu and 1990 came and bite in we arse. It is incumbent on all of us on the forum to be vigilant and work in ways to put a damper on this situation. Don't take this for granted.
The big question is who is fuelling this divide?- this emergence and proliferation of outward hatred is embedded in perceived privilege power and status. There are those who want , those who have and those who simply distrust.
I have seen some postings on social media that is blatant -hatred and derogatory - and if this election is flaming these sorts of behaviour it revealed that ideologies like these are latent and embedded in some individuals.
U ent see how they whinnng and keep on disrupting the processs
Very disappointed by all these candidates - - there is no honour among thieves with outlandish claims
I am appalluded by derogatory social media statements which are very disturbing - personal attacks on a any Leader and or any one people is very disrespectful.
But again all this is deflecting from an election victory and perhaps designed to disrupt and impede the democratic process
Tell me how does anyone belong and partake in a party whose leadership incites direct or oblique racist discourse? How does a " blank person" find acceptance in such a party much less exhalt the principles of such a political entity?
The fact is that we are a pluralistic nation and as such any one ethnicity could be and has a right to be in position of governance. However any individual ascribing to take on a leadership regardless of ethnicity should do so with an ethical regard to all members of the electorate - opposing issues is one thing but attacking the ethnicity and by mere actions allowing followers to elicit rampant and explicit ethnic denegrating attacks is unconsciousable .
Shame shame shame on those individuals who resort to these insidious forms of attacks on others to vent their hatred and defeat- All leaders and or elected individuals should take on a moral responsibility to call upon individuals to cease from this ethnic divide and to adopt a National identity- 'Trinbagonian'
BTW- people get caught up with either trying to defend, deny or accuse what was actually said by a leader - but no one seems to be questioning the intent nor asking for clarification of the term- what is a " blank man'?
If that was indeed the statement?
When leaders make disparaging statements it seems to give rise to their followers that this type of behaviour is condone. All we have to do is to witness the verbal diaherra from certain leaders in North America and see how political correctness is thrown out the window- how do blank republicans abide by or support a rhetoric of diviseness? And you know how we like foreign and how we like to emulate the American ideal- it's no wonder that the divisiness which we are seeing in TnT has become so pervasive and callous among sectorsi in our society- this is the pandemic of hatred we are encountering amidst the backdrop of an election- people wake up and look at a national identity as oppose to one of ethnic divide based on party.

Leadership is sadly lacking in terms of people with a vision and concrete plans to enact upon them. What we have are political opportunist operating with 19th century paradigm of making empty promises and resorting to mudslinging.
The opposition realibility is based on ignorant locality to an ethnic affiliation rather than any sound judgement or character worthy of being an iconic mentor or someone to aspire to. Instead the public is given false promises endless divisive rhetoric and incompetent puppeteers.
The ruling government has the most potential to deliver a pathway to move this country however its leader has to be decisive in dealing with underperforming ministers - purge the insiders from the former government in each ministry and maintain and de and the highest moral ethical practices from all public servants.
The current opposition has done very little to instill public trust but is leading the way with mistrust misdirection divisive politics and malcontent
I humbly beseech TnT to wake up and look closely at what goods you are been sold by those who constantly plays the , "race card" yet there are those who follow like sheep who thirsting for power will sell their own brothers and sisters for a pound of flesh or an opportune grasp at power.
Sad very sad to see how some are being used against thier own by snakes waiting in the grass -yuh ent see how the blind does grab at the first hand to lead them across the road!

From purely an ethical standpoint - how do we even elect an individual with these past discretions to lead our team? Well then again this falls into our Trini norm- how do we even elect leaders to lead the TTFA , you ent see the previous ministers and leaders from past governments? Men heading up sports programs and giving away money freely to anyone with a shady past?
Why should the selection of a coach be any different? But is this the man we want at our helm for our young players to aspire and to follow? Then again we had A coach who was part of insurrection that held a government at ransom - came back and held several coaching positions
Only inTnT - old people use to say " whey yuh go do" ent we like commess? Ent we like bacchanal?
Ent we are the epi centre for corruption?
The current coach found a way to adapt assimilate integrate and become like ah Trini- hone his craft well and is now being duly rewarded.
Yuh get what you sow - we will reap what was sown-
Is there no ne with the moral fortitude to make difficult decisions to right this ship?
Or is all this normal as to how we do business? Looks like we always had a normalization committeee in place

This marketing could have been more cost effective and effective if:

B. Hired or commissioned the said forumities to be advisories/ consultants - regarding operations, team selection, coaches, playing facilities and any other said matters pertaining to the efficiency of football in TnT
C. Continued with the appointment of the Forum stalwarts as head of scouting
D. Hire or commission the said forumities to promote and to be board members to set directives and directions for football in TnT
E. Commission the said forumities to be a local ' normalization committeee' to ensure a corrupt free transition and restoration of a highly functioning TTFA
looking at the past record of TTFA blunders in my humble opinion we could have done no worst than what was and what has been a traversity of mismanagement and inept leadership - under the cloak and veilof alleged corruption throughout the years.

I could understand wanting to defend ones name but in a storm sometimes it's better to be calm and composed.
Then again what is being revealed typifies the kind of leadership we have come to expect form that position in the TTFA.

Then again what is being revealed typifies the kind of leadership we have come to expect form that position in the TTFA.

The beat goes on....... different pile same sht
When's will TTFA change it's constitution so that current inept executives - so e who can't even manage their own teams or leagues be prohibited from holding the office as president?
Everyone of those leaders. Have all failed at creating a viable financially pro fitting entirety - there ought to be no way that taxpayers dollars be used to subsidized privately owned teams - U tilt each team owner could demonstrate. Their competence in looking after their own house only then should they be considered for the likelihood of running the TTFA.
A criteria should not be who could run bobol , profit of FIFA funds and become rich with side deals.

Up till this day- even though we have a coach in place some people still talking about the merits of how that coach was selected?
does anyone know if there was a selection committee and what the criteria was/ is for that said position?
What was the criteria for deciding on a base salary?
Was the awarded salary based on - experience? Previous coaching success?
What is the comparative salary among coaches in the region?
How much is the Jamaican national coach paid?
Could we have some sense and sensibility when it comes to decision making from the TTFA?

General Discussion / Re: Life Sport programme Thread.
« on: June 15, 2020, 11:27:09 PM »AG: LifeSport still alive
By SEAN DOUGLAS (Newsday)
THE multi-million dollar LifeSport programme is still being investigated.
Attorney General Faris Al-Rawi disclosed yesterday in reaction to a ruling on Monday by a High Court judge which quashed an audit report of the programme, which was taken to Parliament by the People’s Partnership government under then Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar. Al-Rawi blamed Persad-Bissessar for Monday’s court outcome, citing her premature laying of the audit report in Parliament in July 2014.
Al Rawi said that a Senior Counsel ought to know that natural justice says an acccused person has the right to be heard.
Al-Rawi said the ruling upheld only five out of 14 grounds argued by the claimants. These were: that a breach of natural justice had occurred, that legitimate expectations had been breached, that the claimants had not been informed nor given the right to be heard, a grant of the order of certiorari (quashing the report), and the award of legal costs. Otherwise, he said, other investigations into Life Sport are still alive - including a probe by the police, even as he suggested reporters could ask the Integrity Commission about the probe it is conducting. Al-Rawi neither confirmed nor denied if Government will appeal Justice Mira Dean-Armorer’s ruling, a written version of which he is awaiting.
Al-Rawi recapped that under Life Sport, half-billion dollars was dubiously spent, amid allegations of murder, corruption, bid-rigging and fraud, some issues including several public officials. The Ministry of Finance’s Central Audit Committee (CAC) had probed all aspects of Life Sport, after which Persad-Bissessar, laid it in the Lower House in July 2014. Al-Rawi said that former Finance Minister, Larry Howai had been specifically told that the allegations must be presented to the alleged wrongdoers. Al-Rawi said Persad- Bissessar should have known that premature publication - without a chance of reply - would result in breaches of the law.
“She went on to give the claimants the very card that found itself face up,” the AG said. The AG said the rules of an internal audit mandate that parties must be told of the possibility of adverse findings and that an exit interview be done, the latter which had been promised to all witnesses for the suspects. The AG alleged that even when former Ministry of Sport Permanent Secretary (PS) Ashwin Creed, later sat as Head of the Public Service as PS in the Office of the Prime Minister under Persad-Bissessar, no action was taken to send the LifeSport report to the Public Service Commission (PSC), until the PNM took office.
Al-Rawi said that just because the High Court had quashed the official audit report into LifeSport, that does not stop other investigations from proceeding, as the subject matter that gave rise to the report still exists. He spoke later of over-billing and a doubling up of invoices. “There are other matter around Life Sport that are getting attention,” the Attorney General said. Al -Rawi warned that certain person(s) should not be so quick to think they can walk away from the LifeSport allegations. “I’d not be as comfortable as these with their newfound bravery,” he said.
(See Page 5) Attempts yesterday by Newsday to contact Persad-Bissessar, Howai and several Opposition-linked attorneys for comment on the AG’s claims, were unsuccessful.
And just imagine this program initiative unde a certain government benefitted more non sports individuals than players - the sports minister had to flee the country but all the rakes cool down - all allegations forgotten nothing resolved and now yuh ent see how. People want to bring this leadership back?
Joking - dis place real " jokey

Well we are a free democratic country- People do have the right to choose whomever they wish to align with.
I just think that based on the principles of a party and the ethics of leadership it seems like an u fathomable choice to chose a party whose leadership in divisive dysfunctional and destabilizing.
I would like to know how Candidates who are looking for an opportunity into the political foray decide on who they will align with:
- do you jump at where there is a vacancy ?
Or do you consider a party
S ethics morals and leaderspih within?
