Give Jack his jacket


THE EDITOR: Whether or not people like Basdeo Panday, is a matter of personal choice, but the end product is that you must "Give Jack his jacket." Basdeo Panday must not be allowed to fall by the wayside, he is definitely too brilliant to simply vanish into the sunset. People don’t grow old. When they stop growing, then they become old. The mandatory retirement at age 65 automatically sets an arbitrary cut off date for social usefulness.


Your gifts at your retirement function are usually a relaxing chair, a TV or something that tells you to go home and die peacefully. Sparrow fell for that trick, when he was led to believe that he should give way to the young. What he should have told them was that, "If you want my crown, come and take it." All praises must be accorded to Panday for the masterful brilliance in playing his theatrics, both Constitutionally and legally, so as to put the party in election mode. A warning to Mr Panday, all roads seem to be leading to an early election, after the Keith Noel march. Be prepared, Mr Yetming, as the waters clear, you will see the wisdom in being a backbencher — Jack Warner, I voted for you, but kindly shut up, just carry us to Germany. Winston, if you keep taking "basket" you will be frenzy feeding the PNM, ask Camille. To beat the PNM, please co-operate with Mr Panday. To be honest, all three of you are not able with Panday. Do some History. Remember that politics is a monolithic stress machine. Finally, a policeman appearing at the scene of a crime evokes tremendous fear in the criminal, but great relief in the victim. A diagnosis of cancer sends the patient into wild stress, but not the doctor. Hoping that you understand.
