How about we focus on why N.Burrell was recording in parliament in the first place ? Why are we acting like politicians do NOT know the rules of Parliament
Every week can't be a shouting match and the constant unmerited disruptions & esp when their side makes substantive presentations that wld now not make the news cycle.
Madness
As someone who has personally never wanted to leave Jamaica, I find you people who try to make fun of people who want to leave annoying. This country is in shambles, our infrastructure is poor, government services are terrible for the most part and socially we are declining.

Corpus Christi is one of the most beautiful feasts of the Catholic Church, dedicated to honoring Jesus Christ truly present in the Holy EucharistโBody, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.
๐ญ. ๐ ๐๐๐ก๐๐ก๐
The Latin words Corpus Christi mean:
"Body of Christ."
This solemnity celebrates the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and invites the faithful to adore, worship, and give thanks for the gift of the Holy Eucharist.

Traditionally, Corpus Christi is celebrated on the Thursday following Trinity Sunday.
In some countries, including many dioceses, the celebration is transferred to the following Sunday so that more of the faithful may participate.
The feast occurs approximately sixty days after Easter Sunday.

The feast originated in the 13th century through the efforts of Saint Juliana of Liรจge, who promoted a special feast in honor of the Eucharist.
Following the Eucharistic Miracle of Bolsena, Pope Urban IV established Corpus Christi as a feast for the universal Church in 1264.
The beautiful Eucharistic hymns associated with the feast, including Pange Lingua and Tantum Ergo, were composed by Saint Thomas Aquinas.

Corpus Christi reminds us that Jesus did not leave us alone.
He remains with His Church in the Most Holy Eucharist, offering Himself as spiritual food for the salvation of the world.
โ๏ธ "I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever."
โ (John 6:51)
โ๏ธ Lord Jesus Christ, increase our faith in Your Real Presence and draw us ever closer to Your Sacred Heart through the Holy Eucharist.
Kingston, Jamaica: Thursday, April 30, 2026
Following a meeting on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, between the Ministry of Finance and the Public Service (MOFPS) and the Jamaica Confederation of Trade Unions (JCTU), both parties are pleased to advise that an agreement has been reached to resume annual performance-based salary increments.
This development reflects the continued engagement and advocacy of the JCTU, as well as the Ministryโs commitment to advancing matters affecting public sector employees. A formal Circular will be issued by the Ministry on Monday, May 4, 2026, to provide details of implementation.
Employees will recall that Circular No. 20 dated November 18, 2022 suspended incremental movements for the period April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2025, during the implementation of the Governmentโs new Compensation Structure. With the completion of this reform on March 31, 2025, the conditions are now in place to facilitate the resumption of increments.
Accordingly, payment of annual performance increments, including seniority allowances, where applicable, will recommence in the 2026/2027 Financial Year.
The MoFPS and the JCTU emphasise that this step demonstrates the value of sustained collaboration in addressing public sector workersโ concerns. Both parties remain actively engaged in negotiations for the contract period from April 1, 2025, to March 31, 2028, and are committed to concluding these discussions as soon as possible.
While several items have already been agreed, efforts continue to resolve outstanding matters from the Compensation Restructuring Exercise. In the interim, the resumption of performance increments is a tangible and positive outcome for employees.
Both the Ministry and the JCTU acknowledge the ongoing contributions of public sector workers to national development and reaffirm their shared commitment to improving terms and conditions of service.

State services are not designed to be profitable, theyโre designed to be available and affordable..
It will never be profitable, the goal is to reduce theft but not to be profitable.
When we invest in protecting our people, the results show.
Over the past few years, we have strengthened our security forces, improved intelligence, and supported the men and women of the Jamaica Constabulary Force who put their lives on the line every day.
That work is now showing.
Fewer murders. Fewer shootings. Fewer families left in grief.
This did not happen by chance. It is the outcome of focused investment, careful planning, and a clear commitment to making Jamaica safer for every community.
We will stay the course, because every life saved is a future preserved. #AForceForGood
