THE THING IS; THAT THE INVESTING PUBLIC HAS NO CONFIDENCE IN KENNY ANTHONY AS PRIME MINISTER.

TOO MANY FAUX PAS AND RECKLESS GOVERNMENT SPENDING AND LOSSES OF MILLIONS OF TREASURY FUNDS LIKE THE ROCHAMEL, HELENITES, NATIONAL CONSERVATION AUTHORITY JUST TO RECALL A FEW OF THESE UNSAVORY DEBACLES.

This very same government is part and parcel of the nightmare that has been created, in so many different ways. Kenny is anything but a leader.

He may be a very bad manager at best. But a leader, he is not. He has never ever shown any capacity whatsoever to think very complex issues through. They do not teach that in law school I suppose. It is mere regurgitation and recital from memory of cases and precedents.

Today's nightmare is the product of this man's wishy-washy thinking on critical national issues with the most obviously sophist arguments. The 15% pay increase comes to mind. How can you be for it because a promise was made. This kind of argument is childishly covered in political mischief.

Ok, you support the increase as knee-jerk opposition thinking goes. Not a single thought was given to the repercussions, if you were to inherit that mess. Whose fault is this?

So, here we are forgetting the labour disturbances of the 1930s. Plantation societies in the post-emancipation period throughout the British colonies in an environment of high unemployment and low wages, went seeking to suppress wages further by cutting back on labour wage costs. Up and down the West Indies the strikes were taking place until the Colonial Government in the end, set up the Moyne Commission to investigate the causes of those disturbances.

Kenny forgets that this very SLP under George F. L. Charles emerged from those disturbances. But here he is, trying to use the very same failed tactics of his own father regarding the Mabouya Plantation.

Here again, is an attempt to use force to push a capitalistic agenda of covering up his humongous and litany of financial imprudence and failure using the weapons of the state. Massa days are coming full circle to bite us in the tail from an offspring of a former Massa. People from Dennery, all do not have very short memories.

Kenny and his type of failed liberal administrations have been able supported by the self serving and useless civil servants like Cletus Springer who boast on Facebook about
the spoils they enjoy from moving from organization to organization feeding off of taxpayers money.
Springer or Jimmy Fletcher these liberal jokers sucking off of the teat of public finances have been the parasites producing nothing but still boasting of the millions they bleed off our countries while producing nothing.
The Kennys need these acolytes of which we have 10s of thousands in the Caribbean costing us billions every decade.

Well put. They stand for nothing but their salaries, pensions , 5 star hotels and perks while bleeding our taxpayers at the UN, OAS and in the civil service.
Our societies continue to decline
as these self serving back slappers bleed our citizens.
