The Op­po­si­tion Mem­bers of Par­lia­ment (MPs) for Diego Mar­tin are fir­ing back at Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar, over her sug­ges­tion that cit­i­zens should talk to them about the traf­fic grid­lock in the af­ter­math of the Stink and Dut­ty fete in Ch­aguara­mas last Sat­ur­day.

All three MPs joined forces yes­ter­day to con­demn the PM’s re­cent com­ments which, in their view, was her at­tempt at gaslight­ing the Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment (PNM).

On Tues­day, the Prime Min­is­ter ac­cused the Diego Mar­tin MPs of po­lit­i­cal hypocrisy, say­ing they were the same MPs who cried for fete pro­mot­ers when the Gov­ern­ment clamped down on noise pol­lu­tion. She al­so ad­vised Diego Mar­tin con­stituents to take their traf­fic com­plaints to their MPs, coun­cil­lors and fete pro­mot­ers rather than the Gov­ern­ment.
