Thank you, Mr. Speaker . Mr. Speaker , the Chartered Professional A ccountants Amendment Act [2019] I would like the op-portunity to speak ever so briefly to.

Well, I am not the Minister, and I think the Honourable Member is being very mischievo us, unnecessarily. If he went to Port Royal, he would have seen that the bunkers are being renovated as they would do on his course in order to pr epare them to have the quality condition to accomm odate a PGA event.

I mean, for the Honour able Member to stand on the floor of the House and say . . . I do not work for Port Royal, number one, but I am a private contractor that operates out of there. And I know golf. And if you look at those fairways like number two, it is like a mat. And …

It is not me who sits in Devonshire South Central where the majority of the voters are polarising and have not voted or thought about vot ing for anybody else but a UBP or an OBA all their life! It is not me who would get up and talk — [Inaudible interjections]

That Opposition Leader represents what Julian Hall wrote about in 2008 in his article entitled “Everythi ng Must Change.” And you know what? The Opposition Leader bought into a f açade!

I am just pointing out that, given the opportunity to know something and say nothing . That is what they do! That is what they do. They did it in Jetgate, and they did it in the December 2 nd debate. The Premier Burt did not make the decisions along with the police. He was not the decision -maker on …
