    PPG crumblesThe now figurehead Peoples Partnership Government has succumbed to the plot of the ousted founder of the UNC. The if I cant have it no one can founder hassuccinctly orchestrated the return of the PNM regime, which by the way remains leader less. The internal rumblings within the maxi taxi (25 seater) UNC hasengendered the split of the PPG. The maxi taxi party has campaigned for a new manifesto that yields to the will of the peoplethe old manifesto under the ousted

    leader had sought to ignore the will of the people and instead aggrandise the whims of the ass-lickers, party financiers and upper echelons. This had proved fatal

    to the ousted founder. He claims to have learnt his lesson and has now vowed to guide the next generation to reclaim control of the maxi taxi party.

    It should be noted that the ousted founder had never successfully driven the bread van maxi taxi (12 seater) to any elections victory.

    Meanwhile the leader less PNM continues to successfully rely on the political naivety of the power hungry PPG. Even though the PNM has a track record of blatant

    nepotism, corruption, mismanagement and a host of political crimes.the greed for power by the neva see cum see maxi taxi party will inevitably see the return

    of the despotic PNM. It is inevitable as the voting public will choose the worse of two evils given the choice between a rock and a hard placehistory has shown

    the voting public to choose the worse of the two evils.

    You or anyone else could be right or wrong, at the same time. In your neck of the woods, it's a glorious sunny day, the future is so bright you got to wear shades, and Kamla is at the

    top of her game and sailing along. For many others, it is quite gloomy with forecasts of thunder, lightning, and really bad weather for extended periods, and the Kamla PP govt is aboutto be hit hard with torpedoes fired by once good friends and associates, as well as the Panday faction. For many, the nation is drifting aimlessly, without focus, with terrible leadership,

    floundering and we are in great peril. Some admire and support Kamla's motherly, genteel, humane etc. approach and have great faith in that and wonder why these arm-chair analystsare complaining. You look out of the window and see such beautiful weather, flowers, birds, smell the roses, green grass, what a lovely landscape....and here are people who don't see

    this! All of us are analysts, no one appoints anyone, there are no sacred cows, this is the new world that Kamla and many of her supporters do not fully understand. You can't box inpeople into your slots, no one cares about the political gurus and analysts as they did before, everyone is an analyst, and you have to be able to communicate effectively and win over

    this army of political analysts. This isn't unique to T&T, this is the world today. The Arab Spring has now spread beyond the borders of the desert kingdoms.

    The UNC is now faced with some difficult challenges; Kamla and her PP govt also face mounting criticism and are losing support. Kamla can deny all this, listen to sycophants andbelieve times are good and all is well, and let the good times roll. But, in reality, the sky is falling on T&T, and instead of playing ostrich, Kamla and her PP govt must get real, go back

    to the people, consult with the people, go back to the manifesto, and try again. We need change, if we don't change then we ossify and die, and change starts at the top. As Gandhisays -- be the change you wish to see in the world. This applies most of all to Kamla - she must change, she must admit it's not working, she must lead the way to change from the

    failed policies and politics. I would urge you and others to also admit it's not going good and then to persuade Kamla and the PP govt that we cannot continue like this; for the sake ofT&T, we must admit this isn't working and we need to change. This is far more important than the Kamla, the UNC, and the PP govt.

    Change or be changed
