(Trinidad Express) Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar said yesterday she will not be “jumbied†into calling an election date.

Instead, Persad-Bissessar said her Government will be moving another motion of censure against Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley to have him suspended from the Parliament for the controversial “emailgate†issue.
The Prime Minister walked with three files in hand, saying there were three independent forms of evidence which all show that the e-mails read by Rowley in Parliament in 2013 were false.
However, before going into the meat of the emailgate matter, Persad-Bissessar noted that there was speculation across the country that she was going to announce the election date at yesterday’s 26th anniversary celebrations of the United National Congress (UNC) at Rienzi Complex in Couva.
She recalled that former prime minister Patrick Manning called the general election early and lost.
“Listen carefully, the last time a man tried that he lost an election when he called it before time,†she told the crowd.
The PM said there have been repeated calls for her to call the general election and she will…but not yet.
Persad-Bissessar noted that her Government adhered to every election when it was due — the local government elections, Tobago House of Assembly elections and the by-elections.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
