Which Vivan Thomas is being awarded?
Skerrit promised that the people in the finance would provide budget figures to embarrass de leader of the opposition…….he failed!
Financial secretary resigned right after Skerrit promise!!!!
Why?
Almost absent mindedly….. Skerrit giving her some recognition…..now!
What happen…. she looking to feel some self worth that greener pastures failed to provide????
Imagine…. she still needs Skerrit?….or Skerrit still need her?
Will it be the local staff of UNDP receiving this award or some BIG shot being flown in…asking for the dust under my rug.
