Forwarded Independent Comments and Report:


In her address to CATRICOM heads this afternoon T & T PM Kamla Persard Bissasor gave the impression that she is a Caribbean woman. Although spending 11 years in Jamaica and some years in Barbados where her son was born yet she seemed totally disconnected from her colleague heads. She showered praises on Donald Trump and Marco Rubio and thank them for their support of T & T (divide and rule). This is the lady who bad mouth CARICOM and publicly stated that the group has lost it way. Surprise to see her at the meeting in St Kitts. At the end of her address and Lukewarm appreciation, the camera focus on Mia Mottley who could not hide her stoned face.

Thomas wants ‘truth shared’ about his arrest and removal from Barbados

Ask Mia how this could happen and why it's hidden. The Barbados government settled out of court and used Bajan taxpayers' money; it cannot be disclosed.

“The admission of guilt on the Rowley government’s part, in my opinion, should be duly investigated to understand more of who, how, and why the loss of individual rights could be so easily swept away with due process. While speaking at the Caricom Summit in St. Kitts on Tuesday evening, Persad-Bissessar called the Thomas matter a kidnapping of a T&T citizen that was coordinated by the then government.

She suggested it was facilitated by Caricom. “He was placed in handcuffs, transported to the airport, and then back to Trinidad. I think an RSS (Regional Security Services) plan was used to transport him. He was kidnapped,” she said. “However, as much as the Prime Minister voices her concern in relation to the deafening silence by Caricom over this fiasco, closure and accountability will never be revealed or take place via other regional bodies—inclusive of the Barbados Government, the Police Service in Barbados, or the Caricom Secretary General—as this would lead to utter embarrassment that no country wants revealed to the world.”

“I wrote to the secretariat of Caricom asking what happened. How could you have facilitated the kidnapping of a T&T citizen? Please let us know what was happening and how it happened. To date, that was 2022, I have not had a response from the Secretariat,” she said during her speech.

How many supported? "If Venezuela attacks Guyana, the US is allowed to use T&T bases."

They all were silent.

T&T has a huge crime problem: drugs and guns. Criminal organizations now operate on a scale larger than many of these islands.

What can CARICOM do ... "Call the Caribbean Sea an area of peace."

She is trying to solve T&T problems; CARICOM cannot.What has CARICOM achieved? T&T is the major contributor of funds to keep CARICOM alive.

I support her stand.
