Why Labour/MMM Alliance is Dangerous

I'll give you three reasons.

1. It wants to change our excellent system of government – one of our most precious assets – for something inherently unstable to satisfy the fantasies of a couple of politicians. We don't want to do this as it would open a can of constitutional worms. Our Westminsterian system of government has enabled four smooth changes of government since 1968. This has allowed us to forge ahead at a healthy pace until 2005. And established our reputation as a vibrant democracy.
2. It wants to make all kinds of dangerous changes to our electoral system on the basis of a very weak report which has been demonstrated to be flawed beyond repair. That includes party lists which shift the loyalty of MPs from voters to their leaders. And double candidacies which are a recipe to make arrogant politicians unaccountable.
3. Sithanen has been chosen as its Minister of Finance. His regressive 'reforms' which began in 2005 have thrown 22,000 Mauritians into poverty – that's 17% of all poor people – and thousands more into a 9-year L-shaped recession. And he has proved to us that he doesn't understand at least two things: how the economy works and percentages. That's a pretty big skills mismatch.

This alliance will never win a 60-0. Far from it. The political exhumation of the toxic bean-counter will not exactly help. But we will have to vote very wisely – for example Lalit is good, Rezistans not really and abstaining bad – and send a very clear and loud message that we don't want any of this nonsense.

Opposition Split Tickets Under Adult Supervision

Paul is to meet Pravind tomorrow to draw the common list of candidates under the watchful eye of SAJ who resigned as President to save his son's leadership. That's very unfair. Berenger should take Marraine with him so that the two parents can proudly watch their lads trade civilities. While they last.

By the way, I hope that you have received parental consent for reading this.

56% of Poll Don't Think Electoral Reform is a Priority

Ramgoolam Expected To Share Election Plans With Nation This Evening

During a joint press conference at Le Labourdonnais Waterfront Hotel in Port-Louis which starts at 20h. The PM will be accompanied by the Leader of the MSM, Pravind Jugnauth, as well as the Leader of the PMSD, Xavier-Luc Duval. Ramgoolam is expected to announce the dissolution of parliament and the date of the general elections.

People close to the negotiations say that an agreement has been reached to split the 60 tickets as follows: Ptr: 40; MSM:12 and PMSD:8. There are persistent rumours that we'll go to vote on Sunday May 8th.

Once Bitten, Twice Shy

That's Ramgoolam excuse for talking to the MSM. In fact he's scared that the two opposition parties may get together and drive him out of the Treasury building after the ballots give their verdict later this year. So he's trying to keep them as far apart. And as long as possible.

For sure none of the three main parties will be able to win the next general elections if the two other gang up against it. Unlike what Ramgoolam was able to do in 2005. The PM can blame a dismal economic performance for having fewer options at his disposal.

And the MMM can be thankful to its Leader for taking the game of political Nintendo to new heights.

Labour-MMM Alliance Good for the Uteems Not for Mauritius

Good for them because that's about the only way father or son could get elected in the next polls. Not good for Mauritius because that alliance would win all the seats without a serious plan for our country before breaking-up one year later. 

President Uteem has yet to tell us how this is in the interest of our country. I suspect he'll have a hard time doing that because he doesn't seem to understand that a former President shouldn't go back into partisan politics.
