Who are the real winners?

THE EDITOR: With both parties claiming victory in the recent local government elections, who are the real winners? The local government system continues to be a failed one with the citizenry being the main victims. A dependent system that relies on the government for funding therefore putting each corporation at the mercy of the line Ministry.

Trash continues to pile up in constituencies, drains continue to grow grass, citizens continue to make complaints with no resolution in sight, lack of funding continues to be the excuse so tell me who are the real winners? The citizens? I think not!

You see this victory simply is a political ploy of power that continues to brainwash party loyalists into thinking their party in power or gaining power while really nothing continues to be done to the benefit of the citizens.

Tomorrow and the day after the same issues will continue to plague your community with no solution while those in parliament continue to live in their well manicured gated communities sheltered from the everyday nuisances impacting the average citizen's daily lives.

So whether you red or yellow the same problems that plaguing your constituency will have no discrimination and continue to impact ALL citizens in that constituency regardless of party card affiliation! So you see the real winners are those sitting behind a desk collecting a fat salary while we the citizens still looking for solutions!
