Farewell to The Rock
Andrew Holness and Audley Shaw
News
BY EVA-JEAN  
October 17, 2013

Farewell to The Rock

The catering wife and children have hastened off The Rock, following the murder of their husband and father. Word on the street is that the gunmen suspected of the foul deed have since returned to the ill-fated house twice, apparently in search of something they missed the first time.

Sad lesson

The attorney is now so hard-up that colleagues are turning away when they see him coming because of the incessant begging or borrowing with no prospect of repaying. It’s sad, because he earned a pretty penny in the day, but apparently wasted it in riotous living.

Need for transformation

The transformational one is behaving as if he is desperate, allowing any and all to say just about any and all things from the campaign platform. If Daryl Vaz, who has a strong constitution, has to speak out in such strident terms, things must be pretty bad.

Now it’s the battle of the plans

First it was the battle of the press conferences and press releases. Now it’s the battle of the plans for developing Jamaica. One thing can be said of Team Andrew Holness and Team Audley Shaw, there’s never a dull moment!

Shame and scandal in the family

The Manchester scion is threatening to embarrass the family after the discovery of the incestuous relationship happening under their very noses. Things are never going to be the same again.

Question of the week

If Captain Horace Burrell goes, who is going to replace him?

Daryl Vaz, Horace Burrell
