Lennox, boy, if Gaston had the smallest confidence in you some of the scraps from Asots plate would have fallen into your lap.
You sir, are not wrong.
A politically correct decision! I am elated that the Honorable Gaston Browne acted like a true statesmen and not a spineless shriveled coward afraid to be firm when the situation demands! Asot will bounce back however it is the visceral passionate collective that demands transparency and clean hands, sometimes the hard lessons make a better man! I hope Asot doesn’t become jaded and lose his passion for the olpolitical process and rule of Law 🌴🇦🇬🇦🇬🌴
I Agree With You Wholeheartedly; Mr. Merchant! Nothing Personal Against Asot Michael! Gaston Browne Had No Other Choice; But To Be Firm In This Embarrassing Situation! Asot Will Bounce Back!🌴
