LISTEN: Bramble wants to be on government board
Well known Laborite and transgender woman Washington Bramble is demanding that Prime Minister Gaston Browne appoints her on a government board, saying that she deserves that right
Bramble, in a voice note sent to Cabinet ministers yesterday, said “I need to be put on a board even if Gaston Browne has to create a board for me. I think I deserve that much”.
Bramble explained that she appreciates what PM Browne has done for her in the past “but I have to say I am entitled to more”.
“I want each of the Cabinet members to know, especially the prime minister, how I am very disappointed in the neglect and disrespect being meted out to me by the government…”
Bramble said she has worked hard enough for the ABLP to be appointed on a board where she can make enough money to build her home and live comfortably.
