Friday August 22^nd , 2008: Leader of the Opposition the Rt. Hon. Dr. Keith Mitchell has written to Prime Minister Tillman Thomas bringing to his attention his concerns about the number of persons who are being affected by harsh decisions of his Government. 

In his letter Dr. Mitchell made reference to a physically challenged woman with children who has been removed from the Public Assistance List and a number of persons who have been dismissed from their jobs on very short notice and in a very unprofessional manner.

Dr. Mitchell said his heart goes out to the persons involved and their families and calls on the Prime Minister to look into this matter and to live up to their stated position while in opposition that there must be no victimization nor marginalization of persons because of their perceived political affiliation.
