00:00In a political meeting titled In Defense of the People at the Pleasantville Community Center on Tuesday night,
00:07PNM political leader Penelope Backels issues a call to her membership to return home.
00:13Those of you who voted for the UNC because of the fridges that you got,
00:22because of the money that they gave you,
00:25and because of all the false promises, in a hundred days you have realized that they cannot be trusted.
00:35The markings of the UNC's style of governance, she says, is on the wall.
00:40If you want a boss head in a hundred days, something had to be wrong.
00:45As a matter of fact, Backels says it goes back to day one in office.
00:50Go back to the day when our goodly prime minister was sworn in.
00:57Oh, I love the people of Trinidad and Tobago.
00:59Oh, I love the people of Trinidad and Tobago.
01:02I love you and I love...
01:06For real?
01:08What mother, sister, wife, leader?
01:13Love, love with one hand, and the next day, fire!
01:21And even the people, she says, are opening their eyes.
01:25There are places on the Bittum and in Lavantel,
01:30and in other places where they had up the flag,
01:33they're taking down every single one.
01:35So, I'm warning you,
01:45because local elections will come just now,
01:49you know, THA elections will come just now.
01:51They're coming with a new slogan.
01:54They're planning, they're waiting, they're strategizing.
01:57Because we don't like to say it,
02:00but they feel plenty and we don't-ish.
02:02The opposition leader also sought to restore credit
02:05for one major energy development
02:07back in the hands of the PNM.
02:10That Exxon deal that they signed,
02:13they're so bold-faced.
02:16They will not give former Minister Stuart Young
02:19and the Honourable Prime Minister,
02:22former Prime Minister Dr. Rowley,
02:24not a single credit.
02:27She cited the sending home
02:29of the commanding officer of the regiment,
02:31Colonel Keston Charles,
02:33on 605 days' leave.
02:36She said he was instructed to return after one day.
02:40Beckel says Defence Minister Wayne Sturge
02:42has questions to answer.
02:44So he needs to tell the country
02:47whether he instructed the chief of defence staff
02:51to send home the commanding officer.
02:54And he also needs to say whether or not
03:00that person was instructed
03:02to bring a person down from number 12.
03:0813.
03:0913.
03:12Imagine you jump up 13, you know,
03:15and you bypass everybody.
03:18Her information further suggests
03:20there are other pressing issues at Stobles Bay.
03:23Down there in Stobles Bay,
03:26the ration short.
03:30I want them to come tomorrow
03:32and say that is not true.
03:35I also want them to come and see
03:38whether or not they have enough stationery.
03:43Beckel's promises to restore dignity
03:45to workers, reset the economy
03:47and fight crime.
