Dear Editor,
When the country elected this Government it was with the understanding that it would do better than the Andrew Holness-led Administration. All of that is now appearing to be a big mistake.
This Government has a crisis on policy implementation. It is failing to execute settled policies effectively. Key government ministers are slacking off without any sort of accountability. Everybody is just doing their own thing.
Why is Fenton Ferguson still the minister of health? Why is Lisa Hanna still the minister of youth and culture? And why is Robert Pickersgill still in Parliament? The Government makes a lot of laws, yet the problems continue to plague the country.

Some years ago we were told that every community would have potable water, and what have we seen? Numerous communities are still without the important commodity. Our health care system and the economy is in shambles, and everyone seems to just be looking on waiting for the next big moment.
The failures of this government is becoming unbearable. Portia Simpson Miller is to be held accountable as she is the prime minister. Other governments around the world more successfully manage infrastructure investments, health systems and environmental resources, apparently with greater efficiency, less corruption, and better outcomes. Why can't this Administration learn a thing or two? The Government seems to have no clue as to what is happening on the ground in the country. It has been forever since we have heard the prime minister tackle any of the country's problems. We hardly even see her in Parliament.
We demand action and answers. In the December quarter of last year, the crime statistics went down and everyone praised Minister Peter Bunting about the crime strategy. A month later, we seem to be at square one. If the government cannot handle the affairs of the country in an effective manner, then maybe, just maybe it is time for us to elect a new one.
