The Prime Minister’s utopianism

I thank Prime Minister Mr Samuel Hinds for taking the time to clarify some of the comments I made in this column last week, in his letter “Shared governance not shared government” (SN 19/04/2013).  I have little doubt that it was his honest assessment of our condition.

However, it is rooted in a major misconception but one he could easily rectify if he begins to see the existing ethnic mistrust as essentially the outcrop of the manner in which divided societies are managed and their socio/economic results are perceived to be distributed,
