    Interesting timing - it is now six months since border cops seized £70,000 in bundles of cash from the luggage of Dr Denzil Douglas as he left Gatwick Airport. The police were given a deadline – which expires this week – to investigate the source of the money. Does Dr. Harris know something that we don't know yet?

    That's good for all of you who always waiting on free plane rides to come and mess with the votes. You don't live here, you don't pay tax, social security or anything here, but you want to decide what happens here. Only who here feels it. So stay where you are and let us decide for ourselves. We don't need any outside interference. I am so glad Dougie can't send no planes for anyone. Borders are closed and will stay closed until after elections. Let the people who pay taxes here, build our homes here and live and work here decide who we want to lead us. Whether it be unity or labor.

      So what about remittances? What if they were not to send remittances to SKN? I disagree with this thought process that you should not be allowed to vote if you do not live in the country.

      But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere. 18 And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness
