To Hon. Tillman Thomas re Allegations of Impropriety

We are aware that the political culture that pervades Grenada and the rest of the Caribbean is one in which the “old boys’ club” prevails, favours are to be repaid and a blind eye turned to certain wrong-doings. It is also a numbers game which promotes “win at any cost”. Changing the political culture and political environment that characterizes Grenada is an enormous challenge but one that must be confronted if Grenada is to rise from the gutter politics into which it has been dragged. Among other things, it requires that leadership, at all levels, leads by example.
