The recent Micky – Jose Phillip brawl at Vasco should come as no surprise. It was just a matter of time as the clock had been ticking for far too long. This anyway is just a precursor of the tenor any election will henceforth take. A degree in Political Science will not take you too far. The less you are educated the better are your political fortunes. Money, muscle and dinner diplomacy as a medium of elections is here to stay.
We have seen MLAs and MPs being kidnapped and high jacked. We will soon see the same for voters. Thugs, bullets and swords will decide who wins elections. With votes being auctioned to the highest bidder the night before the polls, the theory of the secret ballot has long lost its sanctity. We have known of the 'road rage' syndrome. We will soon need hospitals to deal with the 'political rage' that is creeping in.
