I lived in Ewarton but used to spend weekends and summer holidays in St Marry via all those routes Hubert so eloquently described
For the record i was born in Kingston left at 6 and went back as 14 year old and lived in mannings hill road at the bottom where it runs into Havendale untill i left Jamaica
In between i lived in Linstead Ewarton and went everywhere with my pops who had a bus truck and taxi business
I had family in Clarendon St Ann and St Mary and travelled a lot with my pops who had a truck bus and taxi business
That road from Ewarton to St Ann via Mt Diablo, Mt Rosser and Moneague was a wild ride

PM announces free 2-month JUTC service for students starting September
Prime Minister Dr Andrew Holness on Sunday announced free transport on the State-run bus service for all schoolchildren and tertiary students for two months when the new academic year opens in September.
The pronouncement was greeted by loud and sustained cheers from thousands of supporters of the ruling Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) at a mass rally in Half-Way-Tree square where he announced that Jamaica will go to the poll in the next general election on Wednesday, September 3, 2025.

Yard politics will never change!
Correct. Freeness and vote buying. That’s yard politics.

Are you seeing the hoopla regarding the tape recording of k d knight criticizing Golding? Tufton played it at a jlp rally and knight is claiming it is doctored. I doubt that.
Separately, on tik tok, the jlp operatives are playing an old Damion Crawford voice note from about 3 or so years ago where he is criticizing Golding . Fun times

Oh they back on those again? They tried that before. Hell, they have tried to use Karen Cross, they have tried the KD and Damion thing before, KD threatening to sue Tufton, they have tried Mark's father being British, they have tried Mark's race. Hasn't shaken a soul. Vaz cussing the PNP for their stance on the rural school buses. Of course, many have broken down. One got stuck going up a hill. Others have crashed. He admitted issues with tyres. There is a video of one where members of the public are saying: yu nuh hear she seh it cyaan guh inna reverse. Of course these are OLD US LHD buses. He brought the buses a political ploy and now the issues with the buses are blowing up inna im face an im bex.

Btw, I find that places like Twitter and TikTok will flood you with the OPPOSITE of your support for engagement. Twitter constantly shows me ideologies OPPOSITE to mine from education to politics. I make my life easier by muting, blocking & ignoring. I watched a few PNP things on TikTok and now I get some JLP things.
