Comments: Wait this is more than just the average Trinidadian complaining. There was a March taking place last Thursday by Members of the Movement for Social Justice and the Members of the Joint Trade Union Movement and they said they will stage a March every day in front of the Ministry of Sports until Anil Roberts is out.

If he does it leaves the seat open for elections. Now that seat is highly contested because it has switched politicians many times over. I will be waiting to see if the PM will call an election for that seat anytime soon. Did Anil Roberts serve his constituency well? If he did then the COP may have a chance again, but I doubt.

Minutes after Anil Roberts handed his resignation, The Guardian Newspaper had an interview with him. He looked visibly upset next to his wife who was comforting him. The following are some of the things he said:
QUOTE He said the last thing he expected was being asked to resign.
QUOTE "If a minister has been forced to resign or have to resign, having done nothing wrong, a minister of government, duly elected by the people, is put into a position to resign, then where do we go from here?" he asked.
Asked why his Cabinet colleagues were against him, Roberts replied: "You would have to ask them because, me, to tell you the truth, one of my weaknesses from having lived a life in sport is that I am too much of a team player. "My wife always tells me that I believe in people too much. I have learnt the hard way today. That is the regret I have."
