Dear Editor,
No matter how much the opposition tries to convince the population that they had nothing to do with the fall of government, it is clear that their statements are just a diversion of the truth. In every conversation, members of the opposition are adamant that the coalition of eight imploded from within. Liars! Which one of them can honestly say that they did not play a role in destabilizing the government?
From the moment the rug was pulled from underneath them back in 2017, their constant cry was to have a broad-based government, for them to remain in power. Even after last year’s election, this cry was echoed on every radio and television program. The second most requested issue was to measure how compatible parties were, in order for them to work jointly, rather than to rush into a relationship just for the sake of putting a government together.
What have the people witnessed recently? They have observed a consistent nipping at the government from the opposition and a rushed signing of a new majority. Besides, NA was disgusted with ship-jumping then, because it did not benefit them. But it is okay today, because the two traitors of UD fulfilled their wish to form that broad-based government that they so desperately wanted.
And to cover their tracks, they persuaded the defected MPs to recite statements that both of them can’t even read. Picture this: MP Luc Mercelina signed with the new majority on Saturday, and still had the gall to attend a UD meeting the following day. Luc’s erratic behaviour defines him as a rogue. Imagine, he was recruited by the DP leader, but the moment MP Theo Heyliger was out of office, Luc became an errand boy. So, is this the opposition’s view of exploding from within?
Friday’s public meeting in Parliament with VROMI Minister Chris Wever is a clear indication that the sanitary landfill will never get fixed until it is taken completely out of the hands of VROMI. Definitely, games are being played to solve the problem. The minister looked like a wet duck when MP Sarah Wescot-Williams posed her questions pertaining to recent correspondences between the ministry and the World Bank.
How is it that this minister knows very little about the sanitary landfill, when he was the chief in the cabinet of the immediate past VROMI minister? Something is not kosher. And, this drive to bring EnviroGreen into the mix is going to be another headache. MP Christophe Emmanuel has been pushing this project for a while. Why doesn’t he tell the public which discarded MP introduced him to this company?
There is no genuine effort to solve the situation on the dump. The only VROMI Minister who acted in good faith was Miklos Gitterson. He was extremely simple, but he stood firm by refusing to be manipulated. And when he did not please the saboteurs of NA and UD, they forced him to resign.
This is the worst opposition ever! If they had the proper education, they would never bad-talk their ministers and colleagues in such a derogatory manner. Some time ago, MP Christophe Emmanuel mocked the TEATT Minister about taking a gay cruise. So, what is the difference with his party leader? Is it okay with the population to accept a lesbian prime minister who pledged to be an example for the youth?
Mr. Researcher, MP Rolando Brison may come across as brilliant, but he is just an impressionist. Whenever he speaks, he is more interested in how he impresses his listeners rather than being genuine with his deliberations. The chain of controversies that surrounds his professional life is a testament of his true character. If this MP cares so much about the people, why doesn’t he investigate the issue with the credit union that was located on Cannegieter Street?
Since these fearless politicians’ personal interests have overridden the country’s progress, there is one question you the population need to ask: Where does your future fit into their plans?
