[www.inewsguyana.com] – The governing People’s Progressive Party (PPP) has accused Speaker of the National Assembly, Raphael Trotman of being totally unfamiliar with the political and historical antecedents that led to the suspension of the 1953 Constitution in Guyana.

 

According to the PPP, if not this, then the Speaker is being intellectually dishonest in trying to juxtapose what happened at that time with the legal and Constitutional action taken by President Ramotar to prorogue Parliament.

On Monday, following the prorogation of Parliament by the President, Speaker Trotman drew a parallel between the suspension of the Constitution by the British Government in 1953 and the recent prorogation of Parliament; saying it is most distasteful now than then.

But according to the PPP, the decision by President Ramotar has absolutely nothing in common with the dispensation which obtained at the time of the suspension of the Constitution.

The Party says the Speaker has his facts wrong and is viewing current realities through the prism of a politically biased and jaundiced mind; adding that the stance taken by him objectively plays up to the Opposition gallery “but certainly cannot advance the political health of the Nation which has been seriously ruptured by the uncompromising and vindictive actions taken by the combined opposition.”

“To begin with, the suspension of the Constitution by the British Government was done mainly because of ideological and geo-political considerations and out of fear that the country was pursuing programmes and policies that were meant to favour the working class and not the monied class. In other words, there was a distinct ideological and class context to the suspension of the Constitution,” PPP explained.

The Party added that the suspension of the Constitution brought to an end the life of the PPP administration which was then replaced by an interim government which for the most part was made up of the very persons who were rejected at the polls in what was the first election to be held under universal adult suffrage.

“A salient point to note is that it was the PPP that successfully waged the struggle for the universalization of the suffrage. The suspension of the Constitution was therefore an aberration of the democratic aspirations of the electorate who voted overwhelmingly for the PPP which won a landslide victory,” the governing Party said in a statement.

PPP said too that the atmosphere at that time was characterized by intimidation and suppression of fundamental human rights including the right of assembly and to engage in protest action.

The corrupt dictatorial PPP cannot blast any one for anything. They have no moral standing. The last vestiges that separated them from LFSB is gone. They have now managed to match him if not surpass him on every measure, The only thing remaining is to kick their corrupt anti democratic behinds from office to come full circle.

It is self evident the man is a lawyer and made a good living at the trade so he is not illiterate or a dunce. He however cannot be blamed for the PPP taking full advantage of a dictators constitution to make themselves our defacto dictators by shutting down parliament to remain in office. That is the reality and any of the bullshit remains bullshit however differently it is framed.

Kapadilla, listen to the Pandit he is right and I support his comments. I am no PPP, AFC or APNU supporter but I am surprised that you are defending the fact that Trotman is a damn dunce, a brain dead jerk, someone who has no idea of what his role is, over ruling standing orders, seeking advice from former speakers and the clerk of the NA. On top of that he has changed the role of a speaker from one of maintaining neutrality, to one of showing  political partiality. This man who is alleged to have molested a young boy esposes the evil within him.

Prorogation of Parliament…OAS urges earliest resumption

November 12, 2014 | By | Filed Under News 

The Organization of American States (OAS) has expressed concern pertaining to the recent prorogation of Parliament by

OAS Secretary General Jose Miguel Insulza

OAS Secretary General Jose Miguel Insulza

Head of State Donald Ramotar. Calling for the earliest resumption of parliamentary debate, the OAS is the first international body to express its views pertaining to the matter. In the face of a no-confidence motion against the Ramotar Administration, the President has chosen to use his constitutional power to suspend Parliament. This is permitted for six months. In a press statement from the Washington, USA-based organization, the Secretary General of the organization, Jose Miguel Insulza, took note of Proclamation by President Ramotar to prorogue the Tenth Parliament. The Secretary General said that in a democracy, an efficient functioning of the Parliament allows for the voice of the people to be heard. He said that it also allows for checks and balances. The organization’s representative expressed that, “the prorogation of the Parliament of Guyana issued by President Ramotar has occurred within the framework of the country’s constitution.” However, “since the last elections in November 2011, Guyana has had a split governance system with the executive controlled by one party and the combined opposition having the majority in Parliament.” This situation, it was pointed out, “presents both challenges and opportunities for all parties in Guyana to work together for the greater good of the country.” “In light of this reality,” the Secretary General said, he “urged both the governing and opposition political parties to redouble their efforts to reach an understanding and compromise on the major political and socio-economic issues facing the country.” Secretary General Insulza thus hoped that parliamentary debate could be resumed in the 10th Parliament in the shortest possible period of time. The OAS or OEA is an inter-continental organization founded in 1948, for the purposes of regional solidarity and cooperation among its member states. The OAS members are the 35 independent states of the Americas. President Ramotar in a public address said that his decision to prorogue the Parliament was his only option to deal with the no confidence motion that was put forward by the Alliance for Change (AFC) and supported by A Partnership for National Unity (APNU). The two parties were preparing to vote against the government, as all 33 opposition members appeared in the National Assembly on Monday. Opposition leader David Granger described the prorogation of parliament as a means of silencing the population, denying their representatives the opportunity to relate the people’s concerns. Protest action by both the AFC and APNU took place outside Parliament Building on Monday following the government’s announcement. None of the government Ministers turned up for the Parliamentary sitting. The AFC has already expressed its disgust at the President’s action, while both parties have related that the action by the president has obstructed all forms of discourse. The opposition leader had stated a day before the President’s announcement that there will be no talks if the government should shut Parliament’s doors. The Administration is hoping however that the opposition will come to the discussion table, with the intent to discuss the motion. A no-confidence vote against the Ramotar’s minority regime would be the first in Guyana’s history. It is being peddled that to save themselves from embarrassment and from discussing the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) government “poor” track record thus far, “they have taken the easy way out.”

Let’s get this…the PPP is taking advantage of the PNC dictatorial constitution created by the PNC and the poor victim is the PNC? Why don’t you utilize that bullshit and make fertilizer for your brain.

If he is a dunce then what is ramotar? The man thinks like a cow and speaks with just little bit more erudition. Where am I defending evil? Evil is the face of PPP, its entire upper echelon and all it stands for. And do you think telling you that it is self evident that calling one who was accepted at Harvard institute for advance studies an idiot is plainly stupid? You may not like him, his ways or his views but stupid is far from a description you can attach to him.

As usual you reason like a conditioned PPP grunt. The constitution was derided by them as an instrument of evil. They protested its origination and application and had lots to say about reliability as an instrument of good government.

 

It is not that they are forced to comply with the constitution. They had absolute power for 2 decades yet converted it to their political bible. They now defend everyone of what are clearly dictatorial prerogatives as their natural religion.

 

How come you miss that if they do that then they are exactly what they claim to despise?  But to you that somehow demonstrates genius! Now that is what accrues to brain rot you idiot.
