Dear Editor,

So now we know that when a prime minister operates on the premise of transparency and accountability she runs the risk of talking herself out of power.

Oh dear, what has my country come to? Can Mrs Portia Simpson Miller be more out of touch with her responsibilities as prime minister? She said she was busy training 400 teachers for early childhood education and another 200 to work on JEEP. Has Portia started to work at the teachers' colleges now and was she personally doing the training?

Peter Bunting advised that the country will soon hear from Mrs Simpson Miller at the PNP's annual conference. We look forward to that.
