Inniss slams teachers

MINISTER OF INDUSTRY and Commerce Donville Inniss yesterday slammed teachers and their unions for the ultimatum given to Minister of Education Ronald Jones last Friday.

“I am seeing a disconnect today that is a cause for concern. Any union that gets into the public domain and says that they must meet with me by a stipulated day or else, be jinx it will be or else. You are asking for students to respect you and you don’t want to respect other people in authority in this country?

“If any union leader, regardless of which union it is, wants to meet with me, there is a process to go through. You don’t get up in a highly charged meeting and say tell the minister meet me or else,” he stated.
