Do these people have any knowledge of the outcome of their sycophancy ? Or once born idiots one will forever remain as such no matter what their "titles", are.

Next it will be a complete boycott of Parliament - the usual NPP strategy if things go against it. Nation wreckers; that's what NPP members are!

Hopefully the various foot soldiers and youth organizations affiliated with NPP and NDC are reading, listening and or the mental capacity to understand what their leaders are doing to Ghana on their behest.
In a nation where majority of the civil servants do go months without their monthly paychecks and or where civil service retirees get what amounts to half a day’s average wage in civilized western nations as their monthly retirement insurance stipend, we have these shameless MP's belly aching about their money that does not come from actual national revenues but from loans they seek through mortgaging of the future of the next generation of Ghanaians
If these MP's were doing such a wonderful job, Ghana would not have to be seeking loans of any kind to meet things as trivial as monthly salaries. Yet these are the very same MP's who do not have moral wherewithal to call on these abject fools called foot soldiers to die in the name of parties and tribal affiliated organizations.

Ooooh, so when it comes to their benefits and conditions of service, they know how to work together and want to sit and cooperate! Hypocritical, crass and mind boggling. Why are we surprised?

"Mr Agyemang Manu, MP for Dormaa West, disagreed with the Deputy Majority Speaker stressing: “What is the value of the order paper... "

How selfish can you be? The order paper required approval for loans to finance development projects benefitting the whole nation. You agyeman Manu and your fellow MPs forced the adjournment of the sitting in protest against the non-paymenmt of your fantastic emoluments. When President Mahama requested parliament to look again at the emoluments and end-of-service benefits, you MPs turned it down on a technicality.

Whose intersts are you serving, those of your constituents and the nation, or your narrow selfish ends?

This is even worse coming from such experienced MPs. You have all got to be thoroughly ashamed of yourselves! The masses deserve much better.
