« on: May 25, 2010, 07:16:23 PM »The man league was very Popular indeed and Jack shut it down
You might not be a fan of Jack the person and you are well aware of his character. But as corrupt as he is there is not one person in power that works harder than Jack does, and there is no one whose accomplishments on the international stage can stand up against Jack's. Those are known facts.
If you can't give credence to what Jack has been able to accomplish for this country then more power to you.
As worried as I am about him in power, I have much more confidence in him accomplishing something in government compared to any of them incompetent administrators we've gotten used to.
he got rid of the competiton dinho

« on: May 25, 2010, 07:15:06 PM »Yuh see that moving away from the Privy Council thing. De last UNC administration was for it. They ended up in the opposition and changed their minds.http://www.caribbeancourtofjustice.org/about.htm
Ever since then we still going to the Privy Council. I don't remember Kamla saying that they would bring legislation to make the CCJ our highest court, which would be going back to their original position. It was one of the questions I had and was hoping it would have been answered during the campaign season....
can someone explain why TnT still uses the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council?
Thanks

Jack has done so much and done so well, not only politically, but in business as well. That his dealings may be suspect or immoral is a topic well discussed and debated and will not continue in this particular post.
What will be however, is Jack's potential benefit to our football.
Haven't we benefitted enough? Whether negative or positive? Or are we all disguised hypocrites who have their hand out because 'daddy get a big wuk'?
Jack's affiliation (interference) with our football should remain unchanged. Do you expect Jack to throw sums of money in football's direction because his party has now been elected into government? Wasn't he doing that before? Or have we all gotten more greedy and are now mirroring the very trait Jack possesses that we claim to abhor?
For those who may not be so showered with the waters of knowledge, or those whose knowledge has been evaporated by the intense heat of ignorance, Jack does not need Trinidad's money. While he can do with it and surely will not refuse it...he does not NEED it.
Football will remain the same...the beneficiary of Jack's benevolence, via his personal wealth, or the beneficiary of govt funding (as in the previous administration) via his new found political power. Similarly, it may suffer ffrom the opposite.
seriously: when I read this line I stumbled....please explain Thanks
"Haven't we benefitted enough? Whether negative or positive? Or are we all disguised hypocrites who have their hand out because 'daddy get a big wuk'?"
sounds like you promoting the "negatively benefitted" as a GOOD thing

« on: May 25, 2010, 05:59:30 PM »"Dreads (E) A violent group of disaffected youth who branched away from mainstream Rastafarianism in Dominica during the 1970s. Persons described as Dreads because of their lifestyle and "dread locks" took to living in the forest, raiding the gardens of farming communities and, particularly in the southern half of Dominica, some were responsible for the deaths of a number of citizens in isolated areas. As a mood of panic hit the island, The Prohibited and Unlawful Societies and Associations Act was passed in 1974, commonly called "The Dread Act". The wearing of grass skirts for clothes was also banned. Certain persons questioned the constitutionality of these measures. In August 1975 a Commission of Enquiry was established to look into the situation and its social causes. After a lull of some years, events reached a climax in 1981 when a group of Dreads, assisted secretly by members of the now defunct Defence Force, were found to be associated with plans to overthrow the Dominica Freedom Party government. The "Dread Act" was repealed and replaced by The Terrorist Act. By 1982 the "Dread period" could be said to have been over."They called margerrete tacher the iron lady, but i feel this charles woman was the real forkin iron lady yes!! imagine she ban all rasta from dominica and no body with the hairstyle was allowed in the country!Has there ever been an elected female Prime Minister in the Caribbean before Kamla ?

The BIGGEST difference between Jamaica and TnT is that the Political Parties in Jamaica were front and centre in supporting their own gang leaders and were supplying those said gang leaders with arms
that going on 40 years now
Other than that there is not much difference really

« on: May 25, 2010, 04:26:58 PM »most of this still confusing to me yes..it seems like a drug lord has more power than a PM..The ruling Party, lead by Bruce Golding, were supporters of Mr Christopher "Dudus" Coke.
"In its annual narcotics control strategy report in March, the U.S. State Department said Coke's well-known ties to Jamaica's ruling party highlighted "the potential depth of corruption in the government.""
Jamaican politicians have a history of supporting areas in kingston and when the other party in power, then the areas that dont support them dont get government aid

« on: May 24, 2010, 10:20:49 PM »"Et tu, Jacke?"Let me just point out that the people's partnership did not win this election... the UNC did as it has won 21 seats and has the majority on its own. A collation is not formed until after the results, not before. Given that UNC has won 21 there is really no collation government officially.
your political science is weak
elaborate please
you started off by saying that a coalition is not formed until after elections. There is such a thing as a pre electoral coalition. Like the NAR. Like the PP. You just witnessed it.
Now whether it remains one is left to be seen... but Brutus is an honourable gentleman

« on: May 24, 2010, 05:31:21 PM »yeahI pondering.
The allegations of poll clerks not signing ballots. How dat go work?
If 4000 voters turn up to vote....they cross 4000 names off the list. But...when they check the ballots, quite a few are missing signatures of the poll clerks. What can be done?
If you check..and see...4000 voters ....but 5000 ballots present......and some missing signatures....then...you could infer that those ballots were planted.
If you check..and see 4000 ballots...and 4000 names crossed off the list....then you could infer that it hadda be a serious breach of proceedure..which is de responsibility of the poll clerk!
Why anybody go take a risk like dat? It eh like yuh could get away.
Just heard on TV 6 that a ballot without the requisite signature will not be counted as spoilt......
Right. So following with that...this is my question.
4000 voters voted. 5000 ballots counted. 1000 without signatures.
No question marks?
right here
?? ?? ??
that cyar be right
