Jamaica’s Prime Minister Finally Mention Police One Week Before General Elections.

There was a gen­er­al say­ing around Election time that whichev­er polit­i­cal par­ty the secu­ri­ty forces sup­port in large num­bers is the par­ty which will be vic­to­ri­ous at the polls. I believe that in light of that the police as a vot­ing block and indeed an inter­est group should hold some sway , or have some lever­age inso­far as it per­tains to their vote in a block.
This does not mean by any stretch that the police as a group is a mono­lith, but police offi­cers like oth­er large groups are acute­ly posi­tioned to rec­og­nize where they get the best sup­port and sub­se­quent­ly where their per­son­al and orga­ni­za­tion­al inter­est lies.

JUXTAPOSE THAT WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S POSITION MERELY MONTHS AGO.
JAMAICA GOVT. TO POLICE REFUSE TO WORK, WE CONFISCATE YOUR PROPERTY…..
