That is why I say ,whoever it is they should be charged. I searched the pic and name and not getting it linked to any post like that. I doubt anybody would write something like that using their real name and photo, knowing people going to recognize them.

Ras, I doh really deal up with all that "dem too" arguments, nor I entertain or support any racial slander coming from either side esp coming from black ass trinis who arguing who more black and who better than who.
I doh follow any political blogs/pages on social media. I only read comments when posts get shared.
But what I would say is there seems to be a level of everyday accepted racial mudslinging that's synonymous with UNC and dey pages like is some form of proud strength to display that enriched the culture.
If u dont notice, or refuse to, or support it well word. If u find dem too does do it, word on that too

Rowley: Don’t blame Newman George for HDC/China deal collapse
Sean Douglas
NEWMAN GEORGE, Housing Development Corporation (HDC), is not to be blamed for the cancelled US$72 million contract between the HDC and China Gezhouba Group International Engineering Co Ltd (CGGC), the Prime Minister said at a briefing yesterday at the Diplomatic Centre, St Ann’s, to mark his return from a US trip.
Reporters asked about George’s naming as head of Paria Fuel Trading Company, following the failed HDC/Gezhouba deal.
“We didn’t put Newman George to run the HDC. This is not a Newman George thing,” Rowley replied. He said "many, many people" were involved in preparing this contract.
“The board of HDC is not Newman George. The management of HDC is not Newman George. We are not personalising this.”
He said the HDC was an agency which had come to a position.
Rowley said it was irrelevant and just an administrative issue if he as Prime Minister had also held the housing portfolio at the time the contract was signed.
Asked if he had confidence in George heading to Paria, Rowley said, “If I didn’t have confidence in him, I’d not allow Cabinet to appoint him there.”
Rowley said the project re-tender may not be for as much as US$72 million.
He said there is no shame over the contract cancellation.
The PM said the project was part of a debate over the powers of statutory authorities/state enterprises versus those of Cabinet, with different attorneys having different views.
“This (HDC) matter has been a fairly complex matter. Cabinet approved a framework agreement which is a non-binding, non-detailed agreement, meaning you are free to go in that direction. There are interpretations by some people as to what that means.”
“HDC proceeded to the point of a contract.”
He said by the time Cabinet discovered a problem, they gave the necessary oversight and monitoring which Cabinet cannot relinquish.
“Having done that, for many reasons including a review of its own position, Cabinet decided this should not go forward and we should start over.
“That is not anything for us to be ashamed of or to be worried about. The system has worked.” Rowley said Cabinet had not ignored queries raised.
The PM said Cabinet was unhappy with some aspects of the contract, including a conflict between the plan to sell apartments (which people may not be able to afford) and Cabinet’s desire to build rental units. He also lamented the old deal would have required the HDC to get help from several ministries and may have been too accommodating to a foreign entity.
Rowley said the project would be re-tendered and hopefully be more accommodating to local contractors and “significant local participation.”
He said some public-private partnerships were taking too long, but now they know what they are dealing with. Saying the price-tag may be less than US$72 million, he said local contractors are claiming they can build it cheaper than Gezhouba.

WTMC I really seeing here!
This waste of break about to squander 43 million dollars just on the cancellation alone and talking MCery about "the system has worked"? I always knew this moron, and his cabinet full of morons were shameless, but now even he admits it. Dummy approved a bobol contract as Housing Minister, and now trying to play saviour?
The most incompetent, shameless and corrupt admin we have ever had in T&T, is JUHN Scarfy and his thieving stink bunch. Yet his enablers like Tokesy, Red Kamla Bag, elitecorolla, Zitty, wing and one eye will try to spin even this humongous piece of utter fackery.
