Where in the world is opposition leader Andrew Holness ?

It’s been over a week now since the forced removal of 13 Jamaicans Nationals from Trinidad and Tobago and while we heard a brief 60 seconds comment from Karl Samuda, the opposition leader who was very vocal during the leadership race appears to have gone silent once again.

It appears that the JLP have spent so much time fighting each other, than they have very little time or energy battling the PNP and the many issues they are bungling, which is wreaking havoc on Jamaicans and the Jamaican economy.

Andrew Holness said he does not want to be anyone’s nightmare and he is not into the Ray Ray politics, but he continues to be a nightmare by his failure to keep this incompetent set of politicians on the Government side on their toes.

Wake up Mr Holness, your slumber is a problem, this is the reason you were challenged in the first place and since you new mandate you have done nothing to show me, that you deserve to be the leader of the party.

You have split the party straight down the middle and unless you work twice as hard as your challenger to heal the party, you are looking at a long time in opposition and by then  a large portion your old shadow cabinet would have expired.

Come down from your ” this is my mandate, respect it” and try to meet folks halfway . If you believe those commentators on radio and TV who are suggesting that you purge the party of Shaw’s people are on your side, you had better think again. My intelligence tells me they serve one purpose and one purpose only and that is to help you keep that party splintered, thus rendering the JLP an ineffective political machinery and in so doing keeping the PNP in power for an extended period of time.

A word to the wise is sufficient, you cannot win any election with a bunch of guys in your shadow cabinet, the majority of whom has spent over 80% of their career in opposition, you do the maths and see for yourself.

Nuff said.

  1. This was my fear of Holness winning the leadership election, his continued silence on issues. He cannot wait until general election is near to be vocal because it would’ve been too late. His silence is being interpreted as agreement with the government.

    • then why suppose Holness ?. why elect him an then complain. People get the government they deserve

      • This applies to the present administration also.

        • yes it does. And we got 18.5 years of them till the people decide otherwise. then we got 4 years … now we may get another 18.5 years !!!
