That's because they are basically PNM party groups, including the PSA which is the most pro PNM of all.hover11 wrote:It has an established process when it comes to collective bargaining and the finance minister coming on tv to announce negotiations is not how it is done. It is not a take it or leave it situation. Funny enough these are the same unions that wanted to shut down the country when kamla offered 14 percent yet here they are merely disgruntled when PNM offers 5 percent

What was the point of buying and investing in Magdalena when they now looking to sell it, what was the point of Caroni 1975, what was the point of the closure of the refinery only to look to reopen it. What is the logic behind buying new planes for CAL when they cannot turn a profit? What is the point in buying more busses for PTSC when they have so many that are unusable due to little or no maintenance. You see where I going this right.

Honour is it right or legal that Port workers and NIB workers who signed for 12 and 9 percent respectively since 2020 have not received their dues simply because of political interference. There are no negotiations, it is finished and because the minister of Finance believes that if he pays these group of workers such then the other unions will want the same. There is a process called collective bargaining and the minister cannot circumvent such. The union is still strong believe it or not. A general meeting will be called soon to decide the next course of actionThe_Honourable wrote:hover11 wrote:they loss the battle against the TTRA from forming all well and fine but don't worry something is coming, sooner than later, at some point the members will band together and do some noteworthy action that would allow them to be taken seriously.

Nothing is coming...
PSA membership for the most part bending the knee. They wanted the 4% since last year but it's stuck in the industrial court... and with the TTRA privy council loss, they want Leroy Baptiste out.
PSA elections due but politics as usual. Imbert's comments about 5% and blanking the PSA from negotiations is to rile up the membership more to vote out Leroy when elections are called.
