Pepper Pot – Don’t be silly, Sally

Some people are saying they would not want the job as custos of Manchester with so many JPs against them. Sally Porteous would be silly to want it.

JEEPers weapers

Was Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller carried wide about launching JEEP? What a prekeh! Let’s hope she will be more careful after that. Haste makes waste! It’s a lesson Richard Azan might well learn.

Take a hike, Mike

Mike Henry, surely, can’t remain chairman of the JLP after seemingly promoting dissent on the part of his supporters, or at least not coming out publicly against it. Why is it so hard for people to do the honourable thing and resign on principle?

Residence pestilence

Is it true that a former minister has not vacated his renovated government residence as yet and a new Range Rover is now parked there!

Looting after the booting

It’s being said all over the place that there has been major looting of government offices after the party was booted out of office. The scorched earth policy is still alive and well.

Question of the week:

If the JDIP money is done, where will funding come from for the JEEP?
