JLP, GOJ separate
Dear Editor,
Does anyone remember Trafigura? PM Portia Simpson Miller responded, “Don’t ask me, ask the PNP.” To this day, Mrs Simpson Miller has not commented on the matter!
The PM has thoroughly answered all relevant questions relating to the Manatt, Phelps and Phillips issue.The PM has maintained that Manatt Phelps and Phillips was sanctioned by the JLP, not by the government.
The JLP is in government, but the JLP and the Government of Jamaica are separate organisations.
President Obama has many lobbyists for the democratic party, but they do not represent the US government – a common political practice.
