DEAR EDITOR,
I am forced to write because I am deeply saddened by what I saw and heard take place in parliament. I saw a video. I am embarrassed for my country, if that video has gone worldwide.
I cannot believe that the Speaker of the House allowed those people to misbehave like that and not take any disciplinary action. I am also appalled that the Coalition is allowing the opposition to rule the country in a system of lawlessness from the opposition benches.
Is there no group that upholds moral standards? Is there no group that could demand from the Speaker that misbehaviour in parliament must be dealt with appropriately and swiftly to deter others from perpetuating lawlessness in the honourable house? I sincerely hope that the people of Guyana will hold any government to a higher standard of morality and decency. I am truly disappointed.
Marva Ramsay
