In the secretly commissioned poll that Pa-trick had done on his MPs, the one he wants to use as a reason to rid the PNM of 'poorly functioning ministers', Pa-trick himself scored dismally.

With an approval rating of less than 40% and a definite disapproval rating of greater than 50%, it seems to me that the country has begun to notice Pa-trick isn't doing at all a good job. Hmm, my 0.01% hope?

Quite possibly, this poll might be the truest indicator of the which way the political wind is blowing, rather that those other 'polls' conducted by foreign groups... makes me wonder who in Trinidad does the sampling on their behalf and where/how etc.
But back to my random thought: will the poll be a possible indicator of change? Time will tell....
