It is crazy that both Trevor Walker and Jamal Pringle, instead of debating and speaking towards a bill in the last Parliamentary sitting chose to threaten the Prime Minister about developing beach front land in their constituency. Actually they are both saying there will be public disobedience. But I hope Gaston Browne has learned from the Road Blockade when doing the Carlisle Bay development. With Kublai being used by the UPP as a pawn. Politics is to rule with and through the police in order to maintain LAW AND ORDER. So if any of them want to disturb LAW and ORDER just like during the Covid Lock Down. Do not hesitate to let the police do their job against anyone that thinks they can cause civil unrest.
