Let the PPP show some balls and attack what the think is and injustice. If they think the wages paid for work done is excessive then take the pruning shares to it rather than scream from the rooftops hoping for some political mileage.
If Granger wanna be fair and just, why not give up his Opposition package to the working class, especially those he help put on the breadline
When HELL freezes over he will. This is when I miss my dancing Bananna.
