Was there another increase in the OPM budget?

I missed that one. WOW

It is sad that they would condemn the press reporter for his actions in a question, but not condemn Wilson for his ghetto actions in leaving the podium and wanting to fight the press reporter.

Further, Wilson apology is not an apology. He attacked a press reporter and has yet to apologize to the reporter. Saying he apologizes to the media is garbage.

Clearly his actions required his termination. It does not matter what a person calls you. To leave the podium to go in the face of a person to attack them is a clear no no.

So the government needs $10m to do a salary review.
Do they not have human resources departments?
Is the permanent secretary not able to review salaries in their ministries?

Typical money wastage.

Wasn't he off flying somewhere on a speaking engagement just couple days before the budget communication?

Clearly the Minnis camp is trying to create issues as they see the writing on the wall.

Miller complains about Free Town association election going forward, and there is a letter addressed to him after they had met on the issues he raises stating that all the elections would be stopped, except that the Free Town association, as those persons were going in unopposed.

People like these, it is time for them to go.

These are allegations, not proven facts.

So how can you assume they will do this as a government.

At least get the whole story.

Is this the same Valley Boys that said they would never rush in junkanoo with the New Providence Junkanoo Corporation running things?

Name me one government enterprise that has given service and is not bankrupt, and always depending on a subsidy from government to operate?

Government enterprises are not the answer. It is political and no accountability. Prune for bad financial operations.

Again, all taxes that you mentioned.

And even when you increase taxes as you say on foreigners, they look to go where they can get the best cost. So now we start to tax ourselves out of the market for their services.

Someone please explain this voodoo maths to me please. You not cutting expenses, not raising taxes, but finding new sources or income? What sources of income has our governments ever had other than to raise taxes on the people?
