  1. This a WUTLESS govt for true. How can the Minister of LABOUR be left out of such negotiations. Only a dictator would make a decision like that. Hubiggety Cabinet soon rise up against him. He better stop playing.

  2. Foulkes was seen laughing at Laing today on ZNS. LOL! All he mussy was saying is DAS GOOD FA HIM!

  3. Err….question….where was the Minister of Labour yesterday when the BTC truck “broke down” on Bay Street and all hell broke loose? Was he suppose to meet Tommy there and change his mind when he saw the crowd?
