@DamionMitch With this Opposition, surely the intent of the vote was never going to be revealed to them before hand. Clearly not.
For them, it is PNP's interest over Jamaica's...

Speaker @JulietHolness repeatedly said the time being beyond 7:20......
They kept standing and remained defiant. Well the motion was moved and adjournment taken.
They want to run Parliament yet can't win election.
Mitch M. "if you want to make appointments, win first".
I have a lot to say on the parliamentary brawl. For now - it seems to me the reason parliament came to an abrupt end is because the time was beyond 7:30PM & no motion had then been moved for proceedings to continue beyond then so motion to adjourn was taken
@LeroyClarke16@emilymshields I can tell you, the PNP thinks they are making the Speaker's life miserable while @floydgreenja is having the easy time, managing the Parliament. Him just a laugh and execute.
Attorneys representing MP for St Andrew South Western, Dr Angela Brown Burke, have written to three parliamentary leaders demanding that they apologise for public comments they made last week following an incident inside the House of Representatives.

A man puts on a fake UWI gown for a joke and half the timeline acts like the university itself was attacked.
Meanwhile roughly eight in ten Jamaicans aged 19–24 are not in tertiary education at all.
The university is right to protect its Coat of Arms. Graduates are right to value what it took to get there. Neither of those things answers the more useful question: why does access to the real thing remain so difficult for so many people who are qualified to do it?
We celebrate the student who worked three jobs and still finished. We rarely ask why finishing required three jobs in the first place. One of those positions defends achievement. The other quietly treats hardship as normal.
The photograph is already fading. The numbers are not.
