A wish list to Zimbabwean Prime Minister, Morgan Tsvangirai

First, Mr Prime Minister we would like to be apologetic for the situation that you find the country in, anyway it is not a new situation, you have seen it happen before your own eyes and that is what you have been fighting for in the past decade with very little success. And because it has taken so long for you to ascend to the throne, these things have become so urgent.

Mr Prime Minister, we wish to give you a very short space of time to sort out the economic quagmire that you find Zimbabwe in. Your role as Prime Minister has no yet been spelt out but we reliably understand that you are going to be endowed with the powers to head the government - something you have been dying for isn't it? We are very sorry that you could not get this role as President because Uncle Bob wouldn't let go of the sweet taste of power although he has licked the taste for the past 29 years.
