Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley yesterday said he was supporting Opposition Leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s continued leadership of the United National Congress (UNC).
“Leave her right there. Don’t move her,” he said, as he criticised the “embattled leader” who was “fuming over everything” (the Government did), “hoping for a knock-out punch”.
He was speaking on the Supplementation of Appropriation by $2.3 billion in the House of Representatives, at the Red House, Port of Spain, yesterday.
The Prime Minister said the Opposition went on a platform two weeks ago and announced to the world that the Government is bankrupt.
“Minister of Finance, maybe you should stop the parliamentary cheques. Pay them last. Since we bankrupt, there is no payment to be had.
