  • Whilst people are dazzling at the Diamond Ball some school children can't resume their educational studies. Ridiculous!!!

    I suppose had they not attended school there would have been a penalty to pay for the parents.

    What is to happen to these children and parents who might be working or have commitments and have planned in time for the semester.

    disgraceful an apology isn't sufficient..
