general election

Finally, with the People's Partnership Manifesto out, we can stand both manifestos side by side.

The People's Partnership Manifesto is available here (3 megabytes)- it was just released today.

The People's National Movement Manifesto is available here (20 megabytes). It was released earlier this week.

Last week Wednesday, I was on the phone with another blogger in Trinidad and Tobago. We were discussing the elections, the lack of real discussion on the issues by politicians and so forth. We wondered, the two of us, how it is that there are people who don't seem to care about it. After all, we said, everyone we knew was saying the same thing.

Today, someone asked me why I had not written anything about the upcoming General Election here in Trinidad and Tobago. My response was that there was not much worthwhile to write.
