You mean for salary/backpay?

I suppose it’s capex vs opex.

Sure a facility will incur some opex, but that public wage bill is big enough to have its own gravitational pull

Am I the only person realizing the PNM losing ground support in key areas , took a drive in lopinot and five rivers last night, noticed alot of UNC flags.... i guess ppl truly fed up.

Jason,

What matters is what happens in the voting cubicle where citizens have to make their decision….privately and with confidentiality.

10 years ago and 5 years ago the people claimed to be so “fed up”, and what happened?

This time around, they are just pretending to be fed up so they wont “look bad”. It’s embarrassing and shameful to show support for the present Govt, so the easiest thing to do is go along….

But we all know what happens on election day.

You think Trinis get smart and genuinely fed up overnight?

Max i honestly don't think trinis will be that dotish to buy into this we were gaining experience over the last nine years bit. If that's the case probably they need to take a rest and gather all the experience they need in opposition

Just come back from a UNC walkabout with a friend who is a candidate. The people don't seem too enthusiastic about elections tbh. I think voter turnout going to be low. People just seem uninterested.

arima going for penny this is known

I want to know what the plan is with all that money to rent government buildings in town with a building being rented for 600k monthly. Here is the kicker, all that money does be paid on time yet the government does say in the same breath the money just isn't there to pay public servants or contractors .Ppl not demanding that government stop wasting public funds on rentals for such exorbitant amounts of money.

Where is the like button?

Fun fact the government spending 40 million dollars on RENT....dead money that only fattening financiers and at no point is payment late. With 40 million a month why is the government not building properties instead of renting to arse wari family?

Can't get the white powder wet... At no point along along all of our coast line.

They gearing up to ramp up transhipment heavy!

Funny enough can anyone name one thing Ms. Beckles did during her entire tenure as a politician ? Imagine she is a seasoned veteran and someone who came after her is now her boss...that's crazy

PNM built a complex to house BIR, VAT, registrars office etc in Sando. Kamla converted 2 floors to hospital bed space with elevators etc not equipped to deal with gurneys so that the landlords in Sando could continue to get paid. One of the upper floors was also made a UNC liming spot.
Whether you PNM or UNC that was nonsense

[hover11]

In the words of our esteemed AG....Big jackarse, small jackarse, same lasso

[Dizzy28]

Trinibagonians are you really going to elect a party that represents all that is wrong with society?

These people worship idols and their ministers have been blocking crime fighting legislation in parliament. This country was built on strong christian traditions and values.

Only a foolish muppet would jump for joy at the idea of importing older cars into the country. Do not get me wrong, I think it would greatly benefit our local car scene.

Do not be fooled. Mr. Young can do the same and much better. This is a disingenuous ploy to gather more votes.

At least four ministers swore their oaths on a Gita last month. A few others on the Quran. Your bamsee must be winced in each instance!

[Redress10]

Yeah

Kamla in serious trouble this election. Ppl not rushing to vote for her. They honestly don't seem bothered.
