If we took the time to raise our children in structured environments and taught them the values they need to be productive, respectful individuals, the need for policing would be significantly reduced. Policing should be a response to social problems but because of the poor job that has been done producing sensible individuals in this society we have given power to dysfunctional persons and act surprised when they abuse it!
Sands has nothing to offer this country as a politician, we have enough of them just like him. He would do a far greater service to this country providing his medical services to those least able to afford it.
The governments hurricane plan is "errybody pack up and leave". What if its a hurricane that comes right up the island chain? Where will people evacuate to then?
I have no confidence in any plans formulated by the government. From now on I think the office of the prime minister should keep an open line for suggestions from the general public for ALL major decisions they intend to make; only then some common sense suggestions may get through that won't break the bank or enrich cronies!
If only those in medical community had been more vocal throughout this COVID nightmare, we might have had a more sensible approach to addressing the issues that arose. If I learned one thing, the Dept. of Public Health is ill prepared to deal with any public health crisis. They lack the experience to think critically, plan and execute strategies. Without WHO guidelines, they can do nothing!
... and what do you say of the crimes against humanity committed throughout the British Empire under Queen Victoria, should her statue come down too? In fact what sinless person in history is deserving of a statue? Only fools view the past through the lens of the present and their limited perspectives!
It would be good to hear the truth about BOTH sides of this story before commenting, although the police usually seem to go to work "in fear of their lives"!
I hope he knows he is not dealing with the government. It may be a decision to break the hold of the union there, so lets see if he can force them to open sooner!
