What took place in parliament yesterday confirms that the loyalty of the AFC's Raphael Trotman is with the PNC.

What took place in parliament yesterday and the lead up to it confirms what we here at Liveinguyana have been positing for years, that is; the loyalty of the AFC's Raphael Trotman is with the PNC.
It is our view that Trotman realised from the results of the last elections that the Afro-Guyanese who supported the AFC in 2006 all returned to the PNC and come the next elections he may not be successful in pulling Afro-Guyanese support again. His party's support this time around came from predominantly Indo-Guyanese voters. He knows come next elections that the AFC is doomed since the Afro-Guyanese have already returned home and the Indo-Guyanese are now licking their wounds and chiding themselves for supporting Ramjattan and Moses.
Trotman knows that if he does not make the right move at the right time his political career would be over. The opportunity came on a golden platter. His political career can only flourish in the PNC and his desire to return is clear for all to see. His claim of not desiring to be in parliament was a smoke screen. He allowed himself to be wooed by the PNC since they needed him for a majority. Unlike his previous stint with the PNC, he can now wield some power in the that party. His 'threat' of not wanting to be PM candidate and his 'desire' to not sit in parliament bore fruit. He is sure to use that weapon again this time against the PNC to get his way and to prove his importance to it.

The PNC nominated Debra Backer and Ramsaroop for the Speaker for the 1st half and the AFC nominated Nagamootoo for the 2nd half. Both parties agreed to the nominations and the only problem to iron out was which party takes the first term.
Suddenly the PNC dumped their nominees and agreed to Trotman for the entire life of parliament!!!!Who they fooling?
