Trevor Pitman on ILM
« on: July 20, 2011, 09:26:52 AM »
I have just read T.Pitman's blog which i found very interesting indeed. He writes that ILM thinks that only the rich powerful members of the States and the privilege members of the public should only be interviewed at scrutiny. He states the ILM at a scrutiny meeting stated that he should not interview " A pipe fitter "  this is a statement in regard to Rico Sorda giving evidence in the enquiry into the expenses of the child abuse case.
Now i know of one other person who had the same thoughts as ILM and that was Hilter!

With the greatest respect CB it was actually Ben Shenton who made that comment - not that Ian Le Marquand would not agree of course.

For 'only a pipe fitter' Rico has done a fantastic job in his own time exposing matters that Shenton and Le Marquand are not too happy about.

Let's hope the Senator never needs a pipe fitter or any other 'mere' tradesman to work on his home. I know where I would tell him to go!

The charismatic Lech Walesa was 'only' an electrician and look what he did:

Rico!  For a being 'only' a pipe-fitter you are not doing badly at all.  How about standing for election and putting the arrogant B*******s, who criticise you in their place one day.

Ben Shenton is only a pen pusher with numbers. People like him just could not survive in the real world where money is meaningless and it is what you do with your hands that get you a living. Some people just cannot stand to work in an office, they want to be outside and creating things with their hands. Remember this too and that is you need to know your numbers when fabricating useful objects to make things work. A pen will not do that for you, you will be running to the pipe fitter to do the job you just cannot do.

You sure about the top paid chap? I cut one once and he had no blood in his veins. Not that I believe in vampires, or anything.

I was joking. All my family work in finance, apart from one who is an organ trafficker. He was too honest to go into finance, but good luck to him.

Just when one thought things could not get any worse up pops ILM to put is name forward for CM.
God almighty please give us some hope from this useless piece of establishment member from getting the CM. He has done and tried to cover up more than anybody else since he became a minister.
We are going to have to wait until 3 years time before we can vote out the ministers who will be in the house for the next three years and in that time they can do a whole lot of damage to the ordinary person in this Island.
