Double standard, Sister P

Dear Editor,

‘Sister P’, yu start out wrong! You cannot criticise the former Government’s 18-member Cabinet then name a 20-man Cabinet when you become prime minister. There is no justification for this.

Flip-flopping is one of the major reasons for low voter turn-out at elections. The electorate will see Mrs Simpson Miller’s decision as double-standard and one the PNP will pay dearly for.

Just a day as PM and you chew and swallow your own words. I don’t agree with your 20-members palace, you started out wrong. You have driven the nail home for us not to believe in politicians. As a result, the next time I won’t vote.
