		<description><![CDATA[&quot;“It is without doubt, that the Hon. Marc Bean made a political career of emphasizing the Party’s position on good governance, education reform, and fiscal responsibility which are essential for social stability and prosperity.&quot;

An interesting statement since his behaviour in the House far from represented good governance (much less that of an actual leader); prior to the &#039;12 defeat, he spoke out once about the required education reform (a time when the PLP were in power and could have done something) was slammed by his party and never brought up the subject again until after the PLP lost, then proceeded to critize the OBA for not doing anything, while they tried to assess and address the multitude of issue facing the system that was left ignored and to fester by the PLP (not only limited to curriculum, but infrastructure, poor utilization...); and as far as promoting fiscal responsibility, didn&#039;t he promise to return us to the same levels of unsustainable spending that have left us without the ability to effectively finance government services and operations... how is that fiscally responsible.

For a party that is so fundementally fractured by ideologies and egos, what they have strived to cover with illusion of unity has still been shown in full public view to be little more than words, that this statement is far from reflection of what is reality at the heart of the PLP oligarchies. United only in pursuit of power, for nothing has changed since &#039;12, it is still party before country and her people.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Terry and Cedar Stump...it&#039;s so ironic that it rhymes with Trump because it is exactly how you think!

You never have anything decent to say and not even this one time exercise some respect by wishing the Hon. Marc bean JP MP well in his retirement.

They should have had an inquiry like the current one when we couldn&#039;t vote, own a home, closed Technical Institute and the list goes on and on so please keep your sanctimonious comments where they belong......buried under your cedar stump!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Marc did the right thing for the Party !!
Perhaps the party elders have been having a chat with him for a while now. 

What&#039;s the next step for the party?
Who is going to be the next leader? What&#039;s the rumor?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Politics  -  providing services for the general public paid for from the public purse, discussing the use of public funds by various government departments as well as introducing legislation----  I think this is the basic description -- how it is carried out can impact on one,s personal life and the future of many, particularly our seniors, our youth and those un-able to care for them-selves. Much thankls for those who have fought to keep the community moving forward.]]></description>
