Well, well, well, what a thing...it looking like we might not be getting we 4th A.G.E. after all. At least it was looking so when de ole Bas give
one of de best speech of he life in conceding without actually saying to de masses 'we lorse' and giving dem de slightest excuse to get on bad.
De man wuk it like a true true statesman...mus be true when dey say dat he want to be President one day! I suppose it was he Swan Song, now he have
to do de 'done thing' and step down...but I wonder if dey go accept it? Once Bas out of de picture, de UNC go be in a real curious position wid
most of de big-boys being new on de block. It ent have too many left from de ULF days, and even de ones who did come in de picture after de ONR days
ent all dat plentiful...it go be mucho interesting times ahead for de UNC.
Citizen's Alliance get dey Baptism of Fire, we could only hope dey dust off demselves and start doing dey work for whenever de nex General Election get
call...but what go really show if dey have what people could get behind is if dey start
to show dey worth in de communities. If dey could really get de community support, and dey make a strong play in de nex Local Gov't
Elections it go be very interesting for de General Elections after dat. I feel de biggest problem dey have is image...de masses look at dem and
seeing a kinda 'Woodbrook' face on de party. None of dem really look like de really see hardship, dey all know what stable family life is and dey
never get throw out dey house by a bailiff...de image might be all wrong but if dey doh dispel it dey go end up like Tapia, nice people wid good
ideas but dey was always talking 2 mile over people head. Speaking of which, Lloyd Best was at he finest last night on de TV...he didn' pull
no punches and did make he case in language dat didn' leave nobody out, and it wasn't condescending. As for de odder 2-3 parties (yes, even
Robert Amar very own Private Party of One) is time to see if dey cyant make a difference from inside one of de Big Two or CA because all dey
doing odderwise is building up de Treasury wid dey Deposit. All yuh hearing from de
panelists last night is who go do what when it come to Constitutional Reform...we really need some kinda system dat will allow
de peoples voices/wants to be heard, and not just de fortunate few who could 'buy' a mouthpiece in Parliament or who have a forum to vent dey
thoughts like yuh Tantie. Is when last de MP's in T&T really walk about and live de lives of dey constituents...I mean really get demselves
involved in de people lives when it ent have no camera or tape-recorder running?
Yuh notice I ent talk bout de PNM...is what yuh go say dat ent get said 3 million times in de last 40 years? Dey unfortunately go be de same
ole 'devil dat yuh know'...unless dey decide on radical surgery and get rid of de deadwood. And yuh know when yuh cutting trees yuh cyant jes
pickup and start chopping de base - if yuh doh prune de branches high up fuss thing, dey go cause all kinda hassekara once de tree start to shake
lil bit. But we go see what goin' happen, Patos had was to backtrack and humble heself on de Jamaat land issue when some of de younger lions let
him know what is what, so it looking like a candle somehow surviving in de hurricane...hopefully it go be put to use along wid de deadwood and
make a macco big fire dat go throw light and get dem out de darkness dey blundering through.
Once we have some fresh faces and ideas in de political arena, WE sweet lil T&T bong to must benefit...after all is only so much jamming a body
could take and we done take plenty...twice in de last 30 years.

i dos real enjoy yuh view on tings. it dos be so real...nevuh stop telling dem like it is. ah hope de peoples hearing wen yuh tell dem is we say so
dos put dem politicos in power and we can fire dem wen dey doh do a good job. yuh mus tell dem about we trini nationals who out here in de US-of-A
and want to vote. yuh know dey ent have notting in place to tek we vote. it dos break meh heart, cuz i still want to have a say in how meh country
running. i guess i can't have meh cake and eat it, i choose to live out here but i ent give up meh sweet t&t. be safe on e-day.
