    The most honourable Portia Simpson Miller is my role model. She has set the bar for me. She is a marvelous woman! She shows me that there's nothing a woman can't do! I don't care what anyone says she's one of Jamaica's BEST PRIME Minister! I have been looking up to her from the age of 3 and now I'm 16... I'm still looking up to this gorgeous gem. Miss Simpson as a female you did an Exemplary job with Jamaica... I'm also a female and I share the same vision as you. You rock mama P! Much love!!💗💗

    I remember about four years ago, she asked Mr Holness where were her boys referring to Holness two sons. They went to her and she hugged them and they hugged her back. You could see the genuine love she had for those two boys. This happened at Gordon House

    I miss her. And those were the days. I was In my teens at the begining of the peak of her career, and I feel privileged to have lived in the times of a legend that's immortalized in Jamaicas history for centuries to come. I'll never forget the 2007 elections when I was in high school living in Manchester and the 2011 elections when I was at UWI and living in August town. I met her at a motorcade in 2007 when she came to craighead Manchester, little did she know how obsessed I was with her at the time. I was so depressed when she lost in 2007 I stayed in the whole day after elections while my labourite friends banged on my windows cheering and gloating at me, lol I'll never forget. Politics was so interesting in Jamaica. Haven't been back to Jamaica in almost 9 years I know the political scene is probably dry af with all those male bigots in parliament and the women that kizz their azz trying hard to be like them and blind to the gender inequality issues in politics

    Jamaica dismissed a mother without giving her a genuinely fair chance to fix Jamaica land. The love she portrayed will never return to us as a nation because it does not exist among present day politicians. We love you too madam Portia
