00:00The murder toll is now at 166, with 14 murders recorded for the first seven days of June.
00:08It's a situation the opposition leader believes the government should explain.
00:14They convinced you and many people in the public that it was absolutely necessary to have a state of emergency.
00:23You say, OK, what do you want to do? Please support us. But look at the data to data.
00:28Right now, last year this time, it was 160-something murders. Right now, it's about the same thing. So you
00:39tell me.
00:40The opposition leader further notes. The pieces of legislation which were put forward by the government to help address crime
00:48have also yielded note.
00:50They told you that they needed to stand your ground legislation. And if you stand your ground legislation, home emissions
00:58were finished, everybody could be saved, you could shoot people, even in conflict, you know, they're rushing away, all the
01:05hand robbers.
01:06You know, up to now, they're trying to know what they have to stand your ground legislation.
01:10The last state of emergency, they told you they wanted to kill judges, they wanted to kill magistrates, they wanted
01:18to kill police.
01:20They wanted to kill ministers in the state of emergency. And lo and behold, they lock up hundreds of people.
01:30And when you hear the cry, when the state of emergency ends, they let go or not.
01:37You cannot believe anything that this government says.
01:42The opposition leader's comments come mere days. After six people were killed in South in three separate incidents, a brother
01:51and sister were gunned down in Shoguanas, and three people were shot dead in Malik.
01:57So they will come again with his also believe. Because in the parliament, they are telling you that crime only
02:05happened in PNM Constituents.
02:09And the other church round was in the parliament. They're telling him that all the murders weren't happening in Puerto
02:16Rico South because there were some children and other people that got killed.
02:20I like to tell people and remind them, the Lord don't speak. Last week, a triple murder and a double
02:30murder were done in the same prison.
02:34Yesterday, a double murder showed on us. Princess Don, Maruga. But they were not believe everything in the PNM Constituents.
02:47Beckels also took the government to task for its treatment of those with dissenting voices, in particular, the establishment of
02:55the no-protest zones.
02:57This government now no-protest in front of the diplomatic centre. But I'm trying to figure out why she put
03:06it in the diplomatic centre. And she's not there.
03:09What are you saying? Why? Imagine, Piafoy Airport.
03:21After Robinson Airport in Tobago, something wrong with these people.
03:28So let us pay attention.
03:32And you ask yourself, what is this government afraid of?
