You are a public official therefore your business is the people’s business . Please step down from your position if you don’t want to answer question from the public .

That's where many of you get it wrong; insofar as their private lives are not interfering with their public functions, they are exactly that: private.

stop chat bullshit so if that's the case go under them bed go count strokes

[@decijohn6855]

You are absolutely right Moe Moe! Christopher Tufton is the Minister Health, so if he was the man in the picture having sex with a principal of a business partner, then it becomes the Jamaican people's business! Ms Burton asked a very merited question, but the Minister bullied her and most are with him. That is why Jamaica cannot advance, because the Jamaican people don't demand much of these corrupt politicians. The Jamaican people stay satisfied with the corruption, crime, incivilityand and decay that is so normal in the country, today.

[@decijohn6855]

@avis spencer Of course he bullied Zara Burton. He essentially told her to mind her business.He asserted that his private businesse is his private business none of her business. Rumors had it that he was the man in a picture circulating on social media having sex with a business partner of the Ministry of Health. Being the Minister of Health, if he was the man in the picture, then his private business become the people's business. So, he should have answered to say he is not that man, in no uncertain terms. That is the answer Jamaica are looking for and deserve. But, we in Jamaica don't get straight talk from our politicians, and that is some of the reasons why Jamaica is so corrupt, crime riddled, ramshackled, uncivilized grimy and filthy! Jamaica, what a mess!

[@decijohn6855]

@avis spencer Avis, let me tell you this, I don't care about JLP or PNP, I care about Jamaica! Both parties are criminals. They should be carted off and thrown in prison! So, you are not sick of the crime and corruption both parties have showered down on Jamaica, year in year out? You are not hurting enough with the deplorable condition the country is in? You are not sick and tired of the violence, incivility, immorality grime and filth that we have being experiencing under the PNP and the JLP? They are crooks. They are sleeping with company officials who are vendors of government agencies. So, in these kinds of arrangements do you think the government of Jamaica gets value for money? Please don't talk politics here, because Jamaica politicians cannot show clean hand. Jamaica, what a mess!
