    This dishevelled Kickitoff look-alike is being disingenuous to say the least or is downright lying.

    TWO years ago this bunch were told at the big convention of the cruise industry that unless the COST of landing in PdelE was reduced the number of cruise ships calling would be drastically reduced. The stupid bastards of the Broad Fraud thought they were bluffing: not a chance and this huge SIXTY-SIX percent drop when it should also have been increasing, just underlines the small minded people we are “ruled” by.

    I am sure the “government” can work out percentage changes; they just don’t like telling the truth.
