The Senate is the appointed upper house of the bicameral Parliament of Trinidad and Tobago. The Senate sits in the Red House in Port of Spain. The Senate has 31 members: 16 Government Senators appointed on the advice of the Prime Minister, 6 Opposition Senators appointed on the advice of the Leader of the Opposition and 9 Independent Senators appointed by the President to represent other sectors of civil society. The presiding officer, the President of the Senate, is usually elected from the Government benches. A senator must be at least 25 years old.

The First Chamber (Dutch: Eerste Kamer [ˈeːrstə ˈkaːmər]), often known as the Senate (Dutch: Senaat [səˈnaːt]), is the upper house of the States General, the legislature of the Netherlands. Its 75 members are elected by the members of the twelve States-Provincial every four years, within three months of the provincial elections.
Members of the Senate are part-timers who often hold other positions as well. They receive an allowance which is about a quarter of the salary of the members of the House of Representatives. Unlike the politically more significant House of Representatives, it meets only once a week. Its members tend to be veteran politicians or part-time politicians at the national level, often having other roles.
It has the right to accept or reject legislative proposals but not to amend them or to initiate legislation. Directly after a bill has been passed by the House of Representatives, it is sent to the Senate and is submitted to a parliamentary committee. The committee decides whether the bill can be immediately put on the agenda of the full chamber or there should first be preparatory study of the bill. If a bill is immediately put on the agenda of the full chamber, it is passed as a formality without a debate.

A War for the ages, shifting of tide
Morality, hatred and ethnic divide
Onward to Mecca with crosses in hand
Attack without blessing in God’s holy land
Ancient division, revision of sight
Perception of hatred as man’s holy right
A war without end over God sheds no light
When souls burn in hell as the fields burn the night
I’ll send your son to protect my way of life
A war for the ages, shifting of tide
No boundary, no continental divide
Where doctors of spin ease ours minds when it’s said
That “the victor is proven by numbers of dead”
A warrior dies, a god left in place
Inspiring thousands to hatred of race
An empire rises, with ashes it falls
As we sleep with our enemies within these walls
I’ll send your son to protect my way of life
As souls burn in hell and oil fires burn the night
I the walking dead, woeful are the sheep
