THE SO-CALLED DISSIDENTS WHO HAVE BEEN PUT IN THE "NAUGHTY CORNER" OF THE PARLIAMENTRY BENCH SHOWED UP AND FIRED PLENTY SHADE ACROSS THE BOW OF THEIR LEADER AND PARTY!
UNC "Dissident" Dr Rai Ragbir: One of the proudest moments in this House was my vote for the Whistleblower legislation. I know voting has lost me favour from some in this House but I make no apologies. Now I have been sidelined by my party, forsaken and thrown away
Naparima MP Rodney Charles in his final Budget contribution acknowledges he's been called a dissident and says he has no problem with the name. He says in local politics, Rule 1 The boss is always right and Rule 2 If the boss is wrong, see Rule 1
Charles praised his colleagues, the other "dissidents" saying he is seated among honourable men and women. "When we speak it is not for party, not for principalities, not for powers nor frail humans omnipotent they think they are, but for God, family and country."
