Since the conclusion of that “bad” IMF deal, we have not heard much on the state of the economy from the country chief steward, Dr Peter Phillips.
I happen to hear him speak a week ago about how the JLP mash up the economy and its their fault why things are the way there are today.
I did not hear (must be the media fault) anything about what he Dr Phillips is doing to address the problem, as by saying to fellow comrades ” a dem mash it up so” it absolves him of any responsibility for the sad state of affair.
The Prime Minister is contended to cut ribbons, speak on soft issues but mention the words crime or the economy and you would thinks its Shelly Ann on the tracks, she is out of the blocks in a flash.
I have never seen anything like this in my entire life and those to whom I have spoken who happens to be older than me, cannot seem to recall any PM who is so out of touch.
Peter Phillips appears to be unsure of his next moves as despite what Phillip Paulwell had to say, which no one has sought to independently verify, the interest rate will be hiked under the Petro Caribe deal.
This increase in interest rate cannot be accommodated under the existing. IMF deal and so Jamaica has now found itself on the brink.
I am sure if one ask the PM what on earth is going on she will tell you to ask the relevant minister.
Portia is willing to sacrifice anyone as long as in the end she comes out smelling like a rose.
She will accept the successes but blame other for the failure. That is what PNP calls collective responsibility.
Dr Phillips we need to hear from you sir give us some info on what is going on in Ja.
We need to hear from you on the first IMF test and the targets to meet for #2.

Don’t hold your breath Jay. The entire government will be mum during this time. You will only hear from them when they are on the attack against the opposition if they should criticize the stewardship of the country.
I guess I will have the answers shortly
