Fear binds them

THE EDITOR: I feel very sorry for the thousands of UNC supporters who attended the UNC rally. The various speaker “pounded the PNM, but offered no solutions. The Crime Buster, Ramesh’s main thrust of his speech was five minutes about crime, for which he offered no solutions, and 20 minutes of begging! I wonder what happened to Team Unity, Ramesh? I saw a couple of people wearing “Team Unity” jerseys. The people were confused, and responded only to the rhetoric from the various speakers.


I was not convinced that they were truly moved by anything which came from the platform, except the speech by Mr Winston Dookeran. His was the speech which contained solutions to some of the problems in the country, and he was honest in exposing the sham of  Unity to delude the people of Trinidad and Tobago and the UNC supporters in particular. It was refreshing to see Mr Dookeran leave his seat to congratulate and greet Mikalia Panday after her speech, that was the act of a gentleman and a scholar. A man of decency and fair play. No one else did that. There is no real love among the UNC executive and parliamentarians. Fear binds them together.
