Regardless of injunctions imposed by the court having a protest on Saturday is a stupid idea.

Finance Minister Colm Imbert is admitting to additional cost overruns at the ANR Robinson Airport, which differ from figures he provided to journalists during a media conference on Thursday. As of now, the cost is closer to TT$118 million (US$17.5 million) and not TT$16.9m (US$2.5m) he originally stated.

When you stole so much you can't even account for it. Worst finance minister ever.

Even reading it - airport at 16M TTD should sound absurd - probably out of touch with reality

KPB house alone cost 150M in 2010 - Imbert was in parliament when this was revealed ...

An unfazed Manning continued, "This facility, Mr Speaker, has more space than the Prime Minister's residence and, Mr Speaker, the best estimate that we have, the all-inclusive cost of building this facility is $150 million."

So why even put that misinformation out there to begin with, funny enough the man who knows how much a 10 percent increase in public servants salary will cost taxpayers down to the last cent but a project he fumbling with figures. Let the sheep be sheep yes. Ppl comfortable out here sleeping.

The problem with that is the government using the court to their advantage with injunctions for essential services such as T&TEC, Port ,Wasa and NIB. Forcing workers to report for work to deter protesting during working hours

What about the non essential? Lic office, BIR, Legal affairs, Customs etc etc etc. What's their excuse? Or is it the PNM union will not bite the hands that feed them. Where are you? Or do you just talk and hope someone else fights the battle... like paid influencer.

If it was Butler back in the day, you think he would have cared about court injunctions? more than likely the court would have no current :lol:

Union leaders back then accepted the risks of arrest and jail. Not sure about the crop we have now.

This is the problem they don't make them like butler and Adrian Rienzi again. We have self servers like the eat a food crew, the Jennifer Baptiste and errol mc cleod and dare I say it the Watson Duke types. The union leaders that want to transfer to politics to join the hogs eating out the trough

Wing enjoys the Oppression that workers are under, he gets off on it. He likes the modern day slavery workers are under. He gets a thrill seeing top politicians getting their massive increases while the common man suffers just to make ends meet.

You didn't answer the question. Probably because you didn't even go yourself.
