*** The 2025 GENERAL ELECTION thread***

[The_Honourable]

So some of the Patriotic Front candidates didn't register due to intimidation while the APP party got sabotaged (allegedly) because EBC gave them the wrong forms.

See Alexander chilling outside Puna Market this morning. Yellow T-shirt but dressed like a police otherwise. There was no posse with him, no flag wavers, no supporters.

Resuming hangings in T&T is something the United National Congress can once again consider if it is elected to office. And under a UNC coalition government, a new commissioner of police will be appointed.

Correct me if I'm wrong isn't hanging still a part of our laws it just isn't enforced by the present government by extension our judiciary

[pugboy]

nope
under pratt morgan privy council ruling you have to clear a number of hurdles within 5 years
some of the hurdles rely on getting responses from mercy committee etc and they deliberately will take long to respond to make the timeline expire

The amount of parties running is a sign of a healthy democracy.

The social media comments under PF posts and updates are brutal. I can see how some of the might translate to real world escalation from some of the UNC zealots.

Interesting can the government intervene as the whole separation of powers comes into play. This would be interesting if hangings resume, I believe state executions would be an actual deterrent for criminals to think twice

I support it, nobody's gonna do it despite what any of them say on an election platform promise.

I support it as well, at least they offering a solution and a plan as it regards to crime instead of PNM just continue and hope crime fixes itself

Who badder in Puna? Civilian Zander or Zambo?

[pugboy]

the issue of hangings always arises each elections
but what’s the point of hangings if the actual detection rate is only 15% and subsequent conviction rate is even less than that ?

We are too corrupt of a society to be under the CCJ....how many judgments have we seen overturned due to the privy council? It's the only unbiased party here and untouched politically. No politician can make a call or shoot a message to a lord of the court to have their way.

[MaxPower]

We know about the PNM.


So what dreams are the UNC selling?

I need at least 5.

i used to think better to get rid of privy council but after all the foolishness last 10yrs and seeing how a govt could get away with nonsense
it is better to keep the privy council
the ccj is composed of judges from the islands who are products of same possibly corrupt systems

PNM paid Rhoda 50k a month.....na man but on UNC case for paid bloggers...that's crazy

[pugboy]

The thing about it is 50k is taxpayers dollars every month and these are the same men who vex public servants want a lil increase. PNM giving away money left right and centre

[paid_influencer]

So this is the video floating around of Stuwatee complaining about "paid influencers". I hear my name call so my comments after the video.



Okay, so at this point I have to do a quick sanity check on myself. This is the leader of the PNM complaining about buying influence. The leader of the PNM, the man who is supposed to be in command of the largest and most entrenched patronage network on the island.

I watching the video and seeing very two highly privileged nepo-babies. The two big nepo-babies didn't gain control of the party on merit by winning internal elections, but by friends and family to anoint them into the position where they are now. Now nothing wrong with that, happens all the time, and is something a patronage network is built upon in fact.

But these two nepo-babies seem to have believed the idea that people are voting for the PNM based on merit, instead of their vote being a ticket to accessing temporary or permanent jobs, housing, grants, contracts, food cards, etc.

maybe these nepo-babies really that stupid and think pnm supporters are voting for Faris and Stuart personally, as opposed to voting for the food cards, jobs, contracts, grants, etc.

Now if that is really the case, then expect a blow out. The "new leader" doesn't understand why the party has support in the first place, and how governance is used to maintain power.

And this is a next thing, hope I not going too off track - maybe Faris and Stuart are really believing their own propaganda about the PNM being race-neutral

Don't they understand how that scene above in the video looks? How Stuart and Faris, and Avinash and Renuka (despite neither winning a seat), and now Rishi and Lalla, being featured so highly on the campaign trail, looks to the core interest of the party? He could jump high or jump low - the PNM is the largest and most entrenched patronage network catering primarily to Trinidadians of African descent.

If the leadership doesn't understand that, and doesn't know what needs to be done to operate that type of machine, it is going to crash (until somebody who wins on merit like Penny can revive it back).



Nothing makes me more certain Kamla going to take this election away month-end, very likely in a landslide. Yellow is the code

PNM voters 5 years ago remain the same.

Right now its only social media and what you hear and see making u think Yellow is the code.

The whole country “fed up”…….

But when u see they in that voting cubicle….its a different story.

10 years ago, the people beat up and cry and bawling another 5 years of PNM and we go dead…who win?

5 years ago, the people beat up and cry and bawling another 5 years of PNM and we go dead…who win?

Nothing has changed with regard to the mentality and culture of the people. They remain complacent, happy ass, doh care and ignorant.

T&T can handle another 5 years of PNM easily.
