The passage of the NRF Bill was legal and above board

Dear Editor,
The Opposition are making a last-ditch effort to appear rational and relevant in a modern, developing society, and they are doing this in the most unorthodox fashion; they criticise and oppose everything they can lay their hands on.
One of the areas in which they are pointing an accusing finger is in the passage of The NRF Bill in Parliament. In a matter now engaging the court, they contend that the bill was not legally passed because the Mace, which is a symbol of parliamentary authority, was not in place.
Now, we must ask ourselves the question: Why wasn’t the Mace in place when the bill was passed? Or, where was the Opposition when the bill was passed? To answer the above, the Mace was removed by the Opposition themselves in the worst form of hooliganism ever seen in known history. They stormed the Speaker’s chair and violently removed the Mace then left the chamber. Thankfully, the Mace was restored, and the bill was legally passed.
So, for the Opposition to turn again and say that there was a missing Mace and they were not consulted when the bill was passed epitomises the crass stupidity of these people. But this is not a new phenomenon when it comes to the Opposition, since their disgraceful exit from power.
These are the same individuals who would constantly make raucous noises, lie on the floor, and shout out at the Government side whenever important matters are being discussed. So there is nothing new under the sun in the way they conduct themselves in Parliament. For want of a better description of this sordid group, I would sum it up by saying “their behaviour stinks to the high heavens.”
So, to go into a court of law for a judge to validate such foolishness is ludicrous, at best. Now, the Justice hearing this case is very thorough, and he is delving in to every detail of the matter before him. He is taking the high road in giving each man a fair hearing, so he has requested that they put everything in writing before he tosses them out!
What is there to rule on when the plaintiffs are clearly out of place? In fact, if anyone should be punished, it is the Opposition, who can be so charged for domestic terrorism. The last time I looked upon this, I concluded that their actions constitute a charge, but their asininity knows no bounds.
In closing, I must inform and educate the Opposition that their negative approach to governance would get them nowhere. They are further alienating themselves from mainstream Guyana with these streetside brawls. Guyana needs an Opposition that would cooperate with the Government on matters of development and nation-building, and criticise when it is absolutely necessary. Engaging in this aggressive and confrontational mode would cause them to become the pariah they already are.

Respectfully,
Neil Adams
