Dear Editor,
Was it Friday the 13th or the Selfish 13th?
Thirteen mistakes were made to retain Andrew Holness as leader of the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) and leader of the Opposition. This will affect him in the future, as 13 people, including himself, unwisely looked no farther than their noses, instead of to the future.
I do not see the JLP forming the government after the next general election. This will open another challenge against Holness and I do not see the delegates making another mistake unless they feel comfortable in Opposition forever.
I realise Holness doesn't take sound and reasonable advice, even with senior political wizards around him. I recall hearing Mike Henry publicly stating that he advised Holness not to call the general election at the time he did, but rather to test the waters with the local government election. We all saw the result. Now Delroy Chuck has offered what I consider to be sound advice that he takes a sabbatical and upon his return he would sweep the PNP out of power. Instead, "the 13" have created a "Monday the 13th" on you.
Holness, those 13 votes are going to be your nightmare. They were not looking out for your interest, but for theirs, and only time will. The same way I have said it is the way it is going to occur.
