Minister Ingrid Arrindell bids early farewell on Wednesday.
Good riddance!!! Say hello to Gracita, another persona non gra(ci)ta.
By far the worst Minister of TEATT since country status was obtained. Lack of knowledge on all fronts and just a puppet on Silvio and Frans’ string. This one made Ted Richardson look like a brain surgeon.
