This is a lesson Guyana’s politicians must learn
DEAR EDITOR,
The British parliament voted to delay the Brexit deal and required Borris Johnson, the Prime Minister, to ask for a three months delay. Mr Johnson sent an unsigned letter asking for an extension of the deadline but he sent a signed letter that states that to delay with be detrimental. Both the European Union (EU) and Mr Johnson are fighting for their political survival.
In 2016 when the United Kingdom (UK) voted to leave the EU, there were political movements all over Europe following suit. Frexit, Italexit and many other European countries were likely to leave the EU. Brexit was an existential threat to the EU but because of the chaos the UK has experienced everyone thinking twice. The UK will leave the EU but survival instinct for human is powerful.
This is a lesson Guyana’s politicians must learn. People will survive by any means necessary. If it is difficult in the formal system, the informal system will grow. Do your job as political leaders and stop managing poverty but aim to eliminate it.
Yours truly,
Brian E Plummer
