The first time the PPP has ever had to negotiate. This is all good.

That was the GINA sugar coated side of the story. I want to hear the other dailies side.

Hope the AFC sends TK so he can look the jokers who ignored him in the face and declare his presence and the necessity that they take him seriously.

TK should look at GINA allocations to make sure MISIR and Kwame attack squad are left in the cold.

The only time Kwame's name has come up in the past week was when he was informed he had to go to court for battery.

slowly but inevitably the air of invincibility and above the law aura he has will begin to wane. In time he will soon learn of the two curses of our society. Vengeance is not the lords for the unforgiving Guyanese and gay people, especially those suspected of pedophilia, means unavoidable pariah status. Kwame will be dalitized!

Ramotar was accompanied by Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, Head of the Presidential Secretariat, Dr. Roger Luncheon and Presidential Adviser Gail Teixeira. The APNU delegation comprised David Granger, Rupert Roopnaraine and Joseph Harmon. The AFC delegation comprised Raphael Trotman, Khemraj Ramjattan, Clayton Hall and Gerhard Ramsaroop.

This is like the Rainbow coalition.

The PPP walked with one indo, two blacks and a white female.

The AFC walked with a dugla two indos and a bruddah.

The APNU walked with a black and an indo and I don't know what Harmon is.

Look how things changed. All these people sitting down nice nice nice and gaffing.

The ones who are genuinely prepared to sit down and resolve issues will have a sound basis for the next election, which can take place any time within the next five years.

Could be two months, six months, one year .. five years.

People will be carefully assessing the situation.

It is interesting to note that Ramotar is interested in working with the APNU and the AFC, while Misir GINA crew on GNI is set on discrediting the opposition.
Typical PPP, the right hand dont know what the left is doing and they talk about building National Unity.
It looks like a lot of Jagdeo's mindset in the PPP camp needs retraining.

They are like many on GN&I ... they love a good Jagdeo cuss down drag out fight. To see unity and compromise is out of the question.

PPP looks like they will pick up the tab for the festive season and sport up the opposition like they did prior to elections in an effort to sway them. It won't change the vote.

Slumber has no depths dummy. It is a light sleep. Even if indeed I were in a slumber you still would have a hard time making sense.

The first time in Guyana's political history all the parliamentary parties sit down to address the nation's problems and all you folks tcan do is to take he low road and preach doom and gloom. Why don't we all wish them well and give all the help and encouragement to make this democracy work?

President Ramoutar is MAGNIFICENT. This is ALL SWEET MUSIC to the ear. I wished the Opposition was this focused 19 years ago. Anyway, it is not too late and this is great NEWS for our beloved Guyana. I am not getting too excited however, since we know it is only the beginning.

The gist of the issues, Errol.

One needs to be positive to ensure continued progress.

The Guyanese people won when the winning party got less than 50% of the votes, i.e., no Elected Dictatorship.

In all seriousness, this may be THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN TO GUYANA. Guyanese Politicans need to look and learn from the Americans.
