Pepperpot: No Valentine’s kiss for KD
My girls rarely agree on anything, but all of us are losing our previously enthusiastic admiration for KD Knight.

I started feeling that if I had the fare, I would travel myself — to anywhere but here. Could Mr Holness and Mr Bartlett please grow up?

Question of the week
Has Mr Edmund Bartlett been given the wrong portfolio of foreign affairs ministry?
