Jack was charged in the US which the pnm go use against him. Mikela has an alcoholic vibes which they will promote as had being a junior kamla and GG well he to petty and hot headed to be prime minister. As cop or in Hollywood he will succeed. That leaves vasant who might be a lil too stush for the grass Roots. But I feel either he or jerlean could work
PNM is a clean party, that's why their ppl voted for themDohplaydat wrote:alfa wrote:Kewell35 wrote:Dohplaydat wrote:Vasant as Leader, GG and Mikela. That slate winning any election.

The problem is no party will ever be clean. If Jack and Bas want this it will happen. Vasant, Kevin and Fazal are Bas loyalist.
I'm a big fan of Jerlene but she and Roodal are intertwined. They need Roodal to be charged so that they can drop him but keep Jerlene.

I like my UNC.
However, the UNC leader, not the party on the whole, the UNC leader has failed me with her lack of leadership.
The PNM is my party now, and i voted for them.
Great is the PNM? Not really, The PNM is not great, there are many things i do not like, but it was the better of the two.
Give me a good leader, a better leader and the UNC has my vote.
^That was the rock and the hard place that most voters had to decide yesterday. And they picked their poison to live with. There are conspiracy theories that Kamla lost on purpose, but i don't support that.
I think also that the population has intense scrutiny and higher standards and morals for any party opposing the traditional PNM vote. The people thought this was the case in 2010 but were eventually let down badly with the corruption. That is why they couldn't vote for the same thing again yesterday. Like you can always see the blatant hypocrisy when it comes to comparing the two parties because they both do the same rank corruption and nonsense, yet the default vote is always PNM and the population has some kind of "Stockholm Syndrome" when it comes to calling out the PNM's dirty deeds.
Knowing this should make other contesting parties up their game and decide to be better than the PNM and their mudslinging and eternal corruption and drain on our country since before Independence. This is a call that we should and can do better for our country. Just stand up on the integrity and morality that people want and they'll vote for it. Sustain it, model it properly like after the Honorable Members in Westminster or the Parliament in Ottawa, and the people will notice and our democracy will progress. The people do want change. A party just has to honestly offer it to them with no crossed-fingers behind their backs. The reality of politics isn't that naive, i know. But i think we can come close to it because there are leaders in the world to model this change upon.

He come out supporting Kamla. He said, “The UNC, under your leadership, fought a good fight and although we (all your supporters) would have wanted at least a 21-20 victory a 19-22 defeat is not too bad.
“It put the UNC in a very good position as Opposition in the Parliament,”
Like they don't want to win another election? This lady lose so many elections and have full support still.

VETERAN attorney Israel Khan, SC, intends to apply to join the UNC.
On Thursday Khan joined the chorus of supporters of UNC leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar and her leadership of the party.
In a release, Khan said it was his opinion that she should continue to lead the UNC into the 2025 general election.
He said, “The UNC, under your leadership, fought a good fight and although we (all your supporters) would have wanted at least a 21-20 victory a 19-22 defeat is not too bad.
“It put the UNC in a very good position as Opposition in the Parliament,” he said, adding that the party’s campaign for the next general election starts now.
“In a twinkle of an eye five years would be upon us.
"I am not a card-carrying member of the UNC or any other political party but I am of the view that I can no longer sit on the fence and watch the unnecessary political polarisation of our politics along racial lines. Thus, I am of the view that the time is now most appropriate for me to apply for membership of the UNC.
“Stay strong, active and committed as usual for a better Trinidad and Tobago. God blessings be upon you – the country needs you.”

That is the same fella who say it have too many Afros in the TTPS?

"NEW Commissioner of Police Gary Griffith may well have received his first official complaint, as Senior Counsel Israel Khan yesterday lamented via letter to him that the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) remains mostly Afro-Trinidadian. In it, Khan also reminds Griffith of his, Griffith’s, mixed ethnicity and implores him to include “other” ethnic groups in the service."

Yeah he's a really good lawyer. It was a good decision by them.
Devant: Kamla 'mamaguyed' UNC by calling for recount
UNC activist Devant Maharaj said the party's leader, Kamla Persad-Bissessar, has ‘mamaguyed’ members into thinking that a recount in certain seats in the August 10 general elections was a chance for the UNC to win.
Maharaj said many of the members were holding on to such illusion and failed to accept defeat. He said these games must stop.
“I am not a PNM and I have no intention of joining the PNM. I have challenged the PNM in and out of court for many years but I recognised that this was an electoral race where there will be one winner or one loser and we lost.”
The former minister said Persad-Bissessar, who has not been seen since the general election, has shown her deficiencies as a leader.
“When you listen to some of the members speak, they were holding on to hope that the recount could go our way and we could get government. This is false.”
Maharaj said Persad-Bissessar must come to terms that the party has lost the election.
“We lost and I feel the mature thing to do is to congratulate the winner and move on. She did not show that sense of maturity and, I think, in this last couple of weeks she has highlighted her leadership deficiencies by this ridiculous recount which has stalled the country.”
He added, “This strategy of also demonising the EBC as working for the PNM is disingenuous. When we won the local election the EBC was not under attack and how come now when we lost the general election, the EBC is a PNM. These games must stop.”
Maharaj said the focus now should be on dealing with covid19.
“We have a crisis here. We are at a war with an unseen virus that can kill all of us. It is time for us to put politics aside and work with the government."
On the weekend, attorney and UNC member Kelvin Ramkissoon called on Persad-Bissessar to step down as political leader.
In a WhatsApp conversation, Ramkissoon said, “I don’t even want to watch the news conference. In a proper democracy when a leader losing an election the proper thing is done.
“They don’t hold on. That’s the essence of the Westminster model. The leader knows that."
Ramkissoon was election agent for Ahloy Hunt who has demanded a recount for the St Joseph seat which he lost to incumbent, Health Minister Terrence Deyalsingh.
“The question is not who will take over. Leave that to those who constitute the entity and move on with dignity while you still have it.
“Better yet, show some magnanimity and vacate your own seat and give it to someone else. You will save yourself and save future generations.
“Further time will just erode trust and confidence and chisel away at the remaining goodwill which the party still has and cause people to gravitate towards the continuous winner.
“The maxim if you can’t win them, join them may pervade in the minds of person.”
