Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar<\/a>Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar yesterday admitted to becoming stressed out after reading the reports of Deputy Director of Public Prosecutions Joan Honore-Paul criticism of her over the Emailgate probe. <\/p>\n

She made the admission during a Mother\u2019s Day function at the Diplomatic Centre in St Ann\u2019s.<\/p>\n

The PM initially began by recalling to the gathering \u201call the good times and memories\u201d she had as a child growing up. She then recalled a personal incident with her grandson, who had told his aunt that he was stressed.
\n
\nAfter the narration about the incident, however, Persad-Bissessar then said: \u201cBut I woke up this morning I was like my grandson, I am stressed. I open the newspaper (and) I am stressed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Persad-Bissessar said, however, that she opened a new school in Maraval hours before and after her stressful morning, \u201cthe day has turned out so wonderfully well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Persad-Bissessar did not specify what story or stories stressed her out, but the T&T Guardian\u2019s front page story had the headline \u201cDeputy DPP slams PM for Emailgate claims – No one cleared.\u201d<\/p>\n

Roundtable gathering<\/BIG><\/p>\n

Persad-Bissessar also commented on Wednesday\u2019s roundtable meeting in Port-of-Spain involving trade union leaders, former prime minister Basdeo Panday and others.<\/p>\n

\u201cRecently I saw a lot of men all ganged up and sitting at a roundtable. I saw all these men and their one aim was to get Kamla out,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to tell you … we women are very strong and with my strength and your support I will be the woman left standing.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said she would like to make sure she was not the first and last woman to head a government in this country.<\/p>\n
