Kick Kamla out.

Crab in barrel dance as expected.

They making it too easy for the PNM

Question is can the country survive another five years of PNM

Battered wife syndrome, maybe.
trinbago is resilient and we will survive, but have bitter pills to swallow no matter who in power. Anyone believing the UNC bringing sunshine and rainbows (not literally, but erm, ahhhh lewwe stick a pin in that), is delusional. That really applies to all challengers.

if they remove one source of revenue, they will have to get it elsewhere. That's as basic as it comes.
Oil and gas party done.
As a country are living above our means and depleting our savings.

All the parties are saying the popular things to try to win voters, but nobody balancing the sheet. Only when whoever in power come, you'll get the medicine you "have to take". And then a picture of doom, gloom and "we go do the best we could given the circumstances" kinda talk.

There is no magic wand, and nobody making economic sense and everybody just talking stupidness to get a chance in the hot seat to ride the benefits. RED/YELLOW/ORANGE/WHITE/GREEN/PURPLE. All BUGWAANAAS.

Convince me otherwise.

see, that is something I don't get.

Oil and gas done, but budgets increasing every year.

the state is not swallowing the medicine

[paid_influencer]

kamla could do basic things that will help T&T

like having a minister of national security with a crime plan

or having a minister of finance with a background in economics

this election is the first in my memory that a PNM party will take the election stage without even a fig leaf to cover their lack of a crime or economic plan

If we could survive 10....another 5 is easy

The state acts on behalf of the people.

Are the people ready for no GATE, no subsidies on water and electricity, no subsidy on diesel, public sector layoffs, reduced health care services, paying for the CXC exam fees for your kids like some other Caribbean islands do etc?

^ Funny thing about that.If the racist views of PNM sycophants are true, then the people being most affected by that would be the typical PNM voter

PNM is racist towards Africans.

A 1% African party that keeps black ppl behind

Just for context and to show how much of the annual budget is actually spent back on the people

The Government of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago (GORTT) allocates significant financial resources to transfers and subsidies – 53.6 per cent of total expenditure in fiscal year (FY) 2021. ‘Transfers to Households’ amounted to $9.2 billion in FY 2021 and accounts for the largest share of expenditure (33.9 per cent) under transfers and subsidies.
In recent times, due to energy market pressures and the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), the GORTT’s fiscal space has narrowed. Consequently, to ensure fiscal sustainability, the GORTT has sought to reduce ‘large ticket items’ under transfers and subsidies (for example, the fuel subsidy and government assistance for tertiary education). Further, in the budget statement for FY2022, the GORTT alluded to making additional reductions in transfers and subsidies – by shifting towards a market-based pricing approach for electricity and water utilities and increasing the retirement age.
While these changes may improve the countries fiscal balance, households may have to adjust especially those where a large share of household income/expenditure is supported by transfers (senior citizens’ grant, public assistance, etc.) and subsidies (transportation, utilities, education, health care and inter-island travel).

Mickela beating the ground in toco/grande.

Not sure if this was posted before but the bridge they open just the other day in chaguanas closed now. Desperation setting in, rushing to open thing in opposition constituencies, they know their days are numbered

[sMASH]

Allocation on the budget and actual release of the funds from the banks to the projects are two different things.

Over the years I've noticed many times corporations say they not getting the solid liquid cash. And ministries saying they didn't use the budget allocation .




Thst might be becsuse they advertise a lot more via the budget than actually make available . The ministers know if they get 50m in the budget they realisticslly only could use 5m.

So they sound good in parliament and the country will be running down.

[sMASH]

I want an update on the lavantee transport hub... How has it improved the lives of the peole and the effectiveness of the businesses

It was $700,000

Solid liquid cash?

Lots of talk going around about early election. Some speculating as early as December (highly unlikely, but brilliant idea). Left to be seen when the PM appears in parliament.

We're projected to hit 600 murders early to mid december and that would be a heavy talking point if elections are called that month so highly unlikely.

Lots of projects slated to finish in 2025. I would say August since he called GE and LGE on that month in the recent past.

Now if Rowley want to be a lil wicked, he could call it on Monday April 21st 2025 as Kamla's birthday is on the 22nd

Use the upcoming budget as a guide , most of the policies start from January in the next year, unless colm says effective immediately like he did with increasing gas prices. If he says effective January and the budget filled with election goodies don't expect an early election. December is not enough time to mamaguy ppl to vote for them. Elections are won by the marginals who always on the fence not the die hard supporters

Cause Trinidad have injuns and PNM spreads racism via Socal Media on word of mouth.

They conveniently use Africans to win elections then spit them out after elections.

Meanwhile 1% & Injuns collect PNM contacts.

You urself as a PNM blogger collects scraps
