Hott is owned by a PLP MP, it's primary propagandist is a PLP Senator (not a very bright man, but there you are), the primary guests are PLP apologists, activists and Ministers (Laverne, Burch etc.). Anyone white (unless it's Zane or Jane) is cut off as is anyone who disagrees with the discussion du jour. there is no attempt to mask the hatred.
On the other hand, while far from perfect, the Gazette appears to present a reasonable cross section of views, stories and letters. While hailed as the centre of a vast media conspiracy by the PLP, it merely reports what it sees. It even prints the rantings of Laverne Furbert and her comments.
OK, let's turn this around then. How long is it acceptable for the PLP, under Brown's leadership to act like twats? Another 10 years? Indefinitely?
What you're essentially doing is giving them/him a free pass because one of your ancestors may have had one of his ancestors as a slave? It's not relevant here. It ought to be dismissed.
This isn't about the UBP or race, it's about the thieving c*nt in charge. No-one is denying the "wrongs in the past" because it's not f*cking relevant.
Crimson - If it's true? Too funny. Of course it isn't true and therefore there will be no evidence presented to the authorities.
Hott and Thaao, along with the nutcase's mother are so wrapped up in spinning this into a racial issue they can't help themselves and are too stupid to realise when they've crossed the line. It's disgusting. Interfereing with peoples rights...maybe, maybe not...but they are deliberately misleading the gullible.
The spin machine is in full effect. Thaao continues to spread the lie this is about race. He's even claiming that the demo will be a false representation of the mood of the people. The faux outrage is laughable. He's a young man and still has a chance to distance himself form this crap but is currently demonstrating a lack of maturity and intelligence. Shame. Laverne is claiming that workers are being threatened into attending the rally (we know she's lying because that's what she does). She's positively spitting bile at this point. Over at RegressiveMinds, the idiot Jones is busy trying to justify his race baiting.
In the meantime, you know PLP MP's will be taking and making calls into the night. It's a tough call for them. You have the public expressions of DeVent, Alex Scott and the coward Furbert. All claim not to understand the motion as a weak attempt at distancing themselves from it. All three are spineless. But what of the rest? Turning off the gravy train or carrying on? What about those in marginals? What about those stabbed in the back by Brown? Jennifer Smith? Horton? Perinchief? People will not forget this when an election comes around. The one's with balls and the one's without.
This is actually a massive opportunity for the PLP to regain the high ground. Kick out the corrupt scum. Send the racists out in the cold. Invite an opposition MP or two into cabinet and show true leadership. Introduce fiscal responsibility, open tendering for government contracts. It would actually be a better, smoother path to Independence IF the people wanted it. It would demonstrate political maturity.
I'm just reading through the extensive coverage in today's Gazette and there are two items that are worth further comment.
First, are the dispicable comments made by Ewart Brown and his lacky Thaao Dill. Brown's assertion that this is because of "white's anger at loss of privilige" is nauseating. What a disgusting, low douchebag comment to make. Of course, Dill laps this up and goes along with it, repeating his "concenn" at the number of whites at the protest. Shame on you Thaao, just who the f*ck do you think you are? You are forever labelled.
Second is the story regarding the cost overrun on the "dolphin mitigation" project from 3.7m to 10m dollars. Let's see who the lead contractor is...oh..look at athat... Correia. There's actually $600,000+ in there for idle time. In other words doing nothing. No wonder Jane felt duty bound to speak up for Ewart the other day. So where are we with Future Care, The Salvation Army and family assistance? This is vintage PLP.
The chant for Friday should be "Where's the money gone..."
