Jamaica First Female Leader of the Opposition

The PNP leader is re-energised after refusing to concede defeat and an ugly speech on election night and now is promising to be a strong opposition. She was heard recently saying in another ugly speech, "it ain't over baby", and pointing out that she would be watching Bruce and the JLP everywhere they go every step they take. If that was not enough she proclaimed that she would be the JLP's worst nightmare.

On the downside Prime Minister Golding's call for unity and working together has all but been ignored by Jamaica's first female Leader of the Opposition. Interesting times lie ahead.

Portia Simpson-Miller - JLP's worst nightmare.
Nightmare Already - Bruce Golding responds

The Most Honourable Portia Simpson - Millers speech on election night was not ugly. She was perfectly right to not concede victory to the JLP at that time as the preliminary count showed 31- 29 in favour of the JLP with many seats being very close. The fact that she preferred to wait until the MANDATORY RECOUNT was done before conceding anything was perfectly logical, honest and worthy of commendation.

The Most Honourable Portia Simpson - Miller was perfectly right in not conceding on election night. With the preliminary count showing 31 - 29 in favour of the JLP, and several close seats, the election could have gone either way. The fact that she took the decision to wait on the MANDATORY RECOUNT before conceding anything was not "ugly" but logical and honest.

That outrageous cartoon : Prime Minister of Jamaica, Portia Simpson-Miller.

I have a copy of the much talked about cartoon that was subsequently even removed from the Jamaica Gleaner Company's website. Actually I am prepared to buy a copy of it. In my personal capacity, my first impressions was that the Gleaner might have gone too far but on second reflection, I think not. It is often said that a picture is worth a thousand words. In this case I will try to present a few words on a few events that inspired the cartoon and what it is saying. The first event is a speech the Prime Minister made while she was Minister of Tourism in reply to accusations made by Mr. Audley Shaw. In that speech she made the a comment something to the effect 'mine you draw my tongue'. The other incident it captures is the idea of the Prime Minister having to walk(not sure if it was barefoot) to the Half Moon hotel after being caught up in the height of the Jazz Festival induced traffic nightmare on the Rose Hall Main Road in Montego Bay Jamaica. The other thing captured
