Tighten your belts

I imagine Darlene Compton is regretting her unfeeling comments telling Islanders to tighten their belts. It has certainly back fired on her, and deservedly so. The arrogance of some politicians is almost unbelievable. However, it happens so often these days we should be use to it by now. Busy having a bicycle rack fitted to her government vehicle and charging it to tax payers is all signs of grasping and greedy politicians. From the time when Sheridan charged a pack of gum to his government credit card to this latest attempt to squeeze money out of tax payers. When such incidents are brought to the public attention, there should be punishment in the form of a weighty fine. As it stands nothing happens, culprit keeps his/her head down for a while until we forget about it.
Next election there they are all smiles and full of promises they have no intention of keeping. We islanders must remember and issue our own punishments by not voting for these greedy politicians.
God Bless keep reading and remembering
