THE PNC has once again returned to it’s bag of tricks to remove the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) from government. The trick is to accept the AFC as a new addition in its never-ending game of ‘we are more diverse than the PPP/C and therefore we represent change’.

The same was said when the WPA was accepted into the PNC’s fold, only to be placed on the back burner to be paraded every once in a while to prove that they are alive.
Moses’ initial thrust into the PPP/C’s stronghold has now lost it’s appeal. Moses has singlehandedly destroyed that appeal when he denied his identity, which was the major reason for the PNC/APNU to be so excited about the merger. Moses’ failure to put together a programme that shows in detail how he can change the makeup of the Armed Forces is another glaring example of the AFC being a talk-shop. Does Moses have any detail as to how to make the sugar industry more profitable? We would like to know?
The PNC/APNU and the AFC have been trying desperately to convince us that we must forget the past in order to move forward. Does this mean that Cuffy’s statue should be torn down because it represents the distant past? Cuffy was not even a Guyanese, so why should we decorate the country with his statue? Taxpayers’ money was spent on a foreigner’s statue. Is this right?
The PPP/C continues to be the only beacon of hope for the Guyanese people. In 2008, when the United States and the other Western Industrial countries suffered near collapse of their financial systems because of poor management, Guyana was unaffected. Guyana was unaffected because of the sensible financial policies of the PPP/C government.
Granger has now declared that the war is over. Does this mean we should prepare the groundwork to bring the war criminals to trial? Does it mean that this election result will not be contested, once the winner is declared?
