GHANA BEYOND THE SUPREME COURT

Written by Orangeburg, South Carolina

17 May 2013

What will happen when the Supreme Court rules in the election dispute? Will there be peace or violence?

That we were a divided country before December 7th is clear to all—after all, this is the second election in a row that the winner has failed to win 51% of the votes. Unfortunately, the court case following the election has only worsened the divisions and tensions. Of course, it can be argued that if the petitioners had chosen the streets instead of the courts, our plight would be worse.

This case, regardless of the outcome, has already undermined quite a few reputations and national assumptions:

Shaun Bailey, the Prime Minister's only black aide, was 'frozen out by David Cameron's clique'

Written by Peter Dominiczak, Political Correspondent

13 May 2013

Shaun Bailey, David Cameron's only black working class adviser, has alleged that he was pushed out of Downing Street by the Prime Minister’s “clique” of Old Etonian aides, The Daily Telegraph can disclose.

Shaun Bailey lost his job as a special adviser earlier this year before several former public school pupils were drafted in to senior roles at No  10.

Mr Bailey, who was moved to a part-time role in the Cabinet Office, has told friends that he was excluded from Mr Cameron’s inner circle because he was “different” and repeatedly asked difficult questions about the Government’s priorities.

He is understood to have told the Prime Minister that he was concerned about the Conservative Party’s lack of appeal in black, working class communities, and has now expressed his frustration privately that his concerns were not heeded.
