A friend of mine just sent me an IG clip of a meeting between citizens of Whitehouse in Westmoreland and what appeared to be Sandals hierarchy…

Sandals has seemingly stripped away access to the beach and left the citizens including fishermen who have depended on the beach for generations an area less than the length of a cricket pitch..and even that with restrictions….

This is not new…all the good beaches have been taken away from Jamaicans….its a veritable apartheid system in Jamaica…

No wonder Michael Manley was so hated and vilified by the plantation owners because he attempted to upset the apple cart and give the rank and file a seat at the table….

When are the people going to rise up and chase these crazy ballheads out of town?

It's their fcuking country shithead. They can go where they please.

But I'm sure you just salivate at watching all the fat ass red neck dotards infesting all the public beaches in Florida.

I have always wondered why Jamaica has not have a revolution -armed rebellion to take
out out politicians like current ones.?
It should not if it has to start with the humble fisher folks .
Jamaicans need to wake up and own their country.

Lack of land for the people was at the heart of the `1865 rebellion.

The Government also neglects rivers like the Noisey River - for example, it should be a prime tourist destination, much like the Dunn's River Falls!
