If Da Noh Soh…

Clear the Land Checkpoint…
Word is that Clear the Land Castro has set up his own version of the Salvation Army Kettle Drive. You may have noticed the Customs checkpoint set up near Sandhill. Well, a source close to the dreadlocked Minister of State tell us that the ‘proceeds’ of that checkpoint are taken to a house not so far away which belongs to that very same fellow. Hmmm! Last year quite a few of the females in Castro’s division and in Castro’s ministry benefitted from his largesse with liquor from across the border! From the look of things at the checkpoint, this will be another good year for Castro, his family and friends….If Da Noh Soh!

Cream filled topping…
Poor Jeremy is still going around crying that he is the only one from out of the Association Concerned about Barrow) who got absolutely nothing from the UDP for his troubles. In fact, while the rest of the bunch enjoyed the plums, Jeremy was even refused land when he went calling at the Ministry of Natural Resources. Maybe he should talk to his old buddy Creamy, who was recently seen driving a spanking new green Dodge Ram pickup truck. The UDP has been very good to Creamy. And if its land Jeremy wants, then he’d be at the right place, or at least that’s what Creamy says. According to the carrot-topped supporter of the red and his brother Rommel, Gapi is their ‘special’ friend, their ‘bally,’ and anybody who needs anything done at the Ministry of Lands need only talk to them, for a special consideration, of course…If
Da Noh Soh!

Say it ain’t so…
Reliable word coming out of the Ministry of Finance is that the Prime Minister of Belize has approved the purchase of a brand new fleet of 2010 SUVs for his Cabinet colleagues.

We know that the Prime Minister drives a $250,000 luxury edition Land Cruiser, and that the Minister of Health recently got a Land Cruiser valued at $160,000. Now it looks like the rest of the Cabinet has demanded their share of the bounty as well. Say it ain’t so, PM, especially at this time when people are starving. Remember those BML workers who have been sent home…If Da Noh Soh!

PM Get the Sense…
Did you all see the Prime Minister on television eating his own vomit tonight? Seems like the bald-headed one got carried away by the weight of his ego and decided to issue ultimatums to the man who will most likely be the next Prime Minister of the superpower United Kingdom! Guess Dean has been getting pep talks from his first wife second lady who thrives on controversy and litigation cause it means more dollars in the already bulging bank account. Anyway, so after Dean made a fool of himself on the world stage and the British Press had their fun with him for most of the week, he was forced to backtrack in a hurry. A source inside the Ministry of Foreign Affairs told us that the PM received a not so nice memo from the UK reminding him of the role Britain plays in Belize’s sovereignty and instructing him to mind his manners. As we understand it, shortly after receiving the memo Barrow instructed his CEO in the Office of the Prime Minister to set up an interview with Channel 7 so he could backtrack in public. We understand that Barrow was also ordered to send a letter of apology to David Cameron…If Da Noh Soh!

Venezuelan Fowl Coops…

Remember you heard about UDP Senator Roosevelt Blades from Corozal setting up a company to construct houses from the Venezuela money? We had the scoop first.

Well get this one – the finny one was in Corozal this week inspecting the houses, and we understand he made quite a spectacle insulting Blades and calling the houses nothing but ‘fowl coops.’ Well, Finny, that’s what you get for dealing with the UDP…If Da Noh Soh!

SP Mayor under fire…
This columnist understands that the Mayor of San Pedro, Elsa Paz, is taking some serious heat tonight after she imported a luxury Jeep 2010 SUV to the island. See, there’s been a moratorium on vehicles on the island because of several traffic mishaps and overpopulation of vehicles. In fact, just a week or so ago, one man was refused a permit to bring a taxi to the island. But, hey, we all know that the UDP operate under different rules from the rest of the population. Besides that, Paz already owns three different golf carts. And didn’t somebody mention something about an economy in recession? For damn sure that memo didn’t get to Elsa Paz and the UDP…If Da Noh Soh!

Take off those plates…
Minister of Health Pablo Marin has still not taken the government plates off the Land Cruiser he bought from the Ministry of Finance for his own private use after he was given a brand new 2010 Land Cruiser. See, Pablo thinks the people of Corozal are as foolish as he is and don’t realize that he now owns the 2004 Land Cruiser.

Either that of Pablo is doing something out of the way and wants to continue to enjoy the privilege of government plates on his private vehicle (this is illegal, of course, but it’s not like the UDPs care about pesky things like legalities)…If Da Noh Soh!

Pablo’s Days Numbered…
There’ve been a lot of changes in the Corozal Town Council these days, including this latest. Word reaching this intrepid columnist is that the Deputy Mayor has just been replaced. As we understand it, Town Administrator Carlos Sawyers (the meat pie guy) threatened to resign because of some voucher funny business being conducted by the Deputy Mayor Aaron Babb. So the Mayor used the opportunity to move his sister-in-law, who is a councilor, into place as the Deputy Mayor. So now this is how it stands in Corozal – Hilberto Campos is the Mayor, his sister-in-law is the Deputy Mayor and his common-law wife is the general manager of the Border Management Agency. How’s that for keeping it all in the family? And this just in – Barrow has been holding talks with Campos to see how he can assist in setting up a coup against the really incompetent, really stupid Minister of Health Pablo Marin. Remember you saw it here first…If Da Noh Soh!
