Hopefully this will be talked about for years and not for 9 days. We have to shame these politicians because greed has taken over. I still say there should be a nationwide strike until they roll back these insane salary increases.
I am with you but that’s not it . They can keep dem getting dem salary . But them need to share 5.6 billion to each an every Jamaican are elecs no votes and all crime . Suck them mother
Oral the Prime minister register his business in St. Lucia to avoid paying taxes in Jamaica but expect the Jamaican people to pay his salary . Make it make sense
For the first time in my life, I am not proud to be a Jamaican. I have been living in the States for 33 years, and everyone who knows me knows that I am a diehard Jamaican patriot. I always advocate going back to Jamaica, and just last August, I bought land to build my home in plans to return home in the very near future. But with this current situation, I feel my mind changing. Not even the crime and violence deterred me, but this one is hard to swallow. These politicians sick stomach.
The silence from the opposition PNP is deafening...why!..because when and if they get back in control they will benifit from this whole charade...so why rock the boat and muddy the water. Ordineraly they would try to get as much milage as possible from it.
American politicians no sick stomach too? You sound krazi 😂 like American politicians aren’t the biggest scammers mind change because someone else decision then you don’t want Jamaica to grow if you believe in your country and want better go back and help to make change js
Most Jamaicans will not realize they tested this during covid-19. They tested to see how many of our rights they can take away without us revolting. They now have the population by the literal balls.
"Harry Truman ,former U.S president ,once said' show me a man who has become rich after entering politics and I will show you a crook'. that man is not a brogod
The people wanted him because he remind them of a sweet talking, charismatic obama, not knowing that the two of them are sneaky and evil as hell. That's what you get when you don't use discernment.
The government of Ghana reduced salaries of politicians by 30 % including the president to help the economy last year . They are also building 111 hospitals in 2 years for 111 districts since 2020. Most of them are completed and some 90% completed. Fully equipped with state of the art’s equipments and staff apartments and a program called 1 district 1 factory that has already built more than 250 factories in the last 4 years. Jamaica could learn from them.
What do you mean when you say learn ? Do you think the govt of Jamaica is clueless ? They know exactly what they are doing . Their mandate is to enrich themselves, nothing else.
So, are you expecting Jamaica to do the same like Ghana? Not every country can do like others. Ghana is a big and populated country with a better economy than Jamaica. Also, bear in mind that a lot of African countries also produce precious methods such as gold, silver, diamonds, etc etc. Do you think before you write things? Or, you're more of a narrow-minded person who doesn't expand your thinking?
@lCM , so are you saying Ghana is a rich country so they can roll back the politicians salary by 30% but since Jamaica is a poor country they can increase the salaries by 300%?
@@CBM902Q Actually, we are expecting you to defend any level of increase given to Jamaican politicians....TELL ME WHICH JAMAICAN POLITICIAN WOULD LEAVE HIS OR HER POST IF THEIR SALARIES WERE CUT BY 50%? Would the PM, Finance Minister, Opp leader, etc leave their jobs?
Say it again....power to the powerless, power to those who have the power and the insight for change, that will bring, peace and unity for our once blessed country. A change of direction for the whole country is needed, with a new political name. Let's try the party called "United We Stand" because we have the ruling party in power namely "Devided we fall" Wake up Jamaica 🇯🇲.
That is true but when the rich and educated rich whatever happens it doesn't affect them they dont give a shit, the poor, most of them dont educated enough to make a contructive vote so all they take is $5.000 and give the vote to that person..
Maverick, this is the most callous act I have ever seen from a group of governing politicians; can you imagine in a country where a man has to go to the corner shop and order a squeeze of toothpaste and two slices of bread and 1 tea bag, politicians get up and pay themself over 250 percent salary increase which runs into millions of dollars. While you cannot doubt Nigel Clarke's academic accolades, he's very short on intelligence and the Prime Minister is not far behind. SMH!
Politicians and members of parliament do not add to Jamaica productivity, they do not add to the GDP so this significant increase in pay is going to have a negative effect on Jamaica growth rate. Its bad.
They are really styling us neatly and us Jamaicans won't go down Gordon House and demand resignations. This is the pinnacle of madness and we nah united and run dem out. This cut me up real bad.
You're 💯 percent correct. Jamaicans have never voted on policies and have never had a say in how some of these recommendations are coined which may impact us negatively.
It's depressing when the ruling government operates in this fashion and when you look at the opposition you can't see what difference they will make. At the end of the day, someone has to run the country, and our nation only acknowledges either orange or green. Ohh what a country we have become!
So convenient to retreat to false equivalency. Not clear what purpose that serve other than to absolve the people responsible from the responsibility. The government implemented the fucking heist just like how the implemented other things that the opposition opposes but they have the power and they do it anyway. This specific issue is the Government doing.
Jamaica, you better get into these streets and protest this new abortion and homosexual bill!!! Look at Uganda, look at Kenya, look at France! Take notes! Get into these streets!! Do not allow this to happen. America is exporting her spiritually destructive "rights" because they know that any country that adopt these abominable practices God will push the destruction by fire button on them and take them off the map. America wants to bring everyone down into the pit with her. Jamaica needs to get right with God asap because the Islands will be swept away in the end times and if they are not saved in the rapture and are not martyred for Christ there will not be much chance for anyone on the island with the judgements that are coming. I heard in another testimony that God called Jamaica "Little Babylon" because of her apostasy. The countries that agree and legalize homosexuality will be flooded with powerful homosexual demons and in the end times they will be so powerful, it will be nearly impossible to resist the temptation to engage in same sex behavior. Legalization is a covenant with very wicked spirits. They will get access if you have any cracks in your life related to sexual immorality, fornication included. Jamaica will be majority homosexuals. This is why the anti-christ will not have a desire for women. Celestial spoke about this on The Master's Voice Prophecy Blog. These things are starting to happen already. Get in the streets and fight for God's standard, you will regret it when Jamaica falls deeper into depravity and destruction. Get into these streets. Play those songs. Get the neighborhood riled up! Bum bai bai! Play it!! Weep for your children when they start coming home with same sex girlfriends and boyfriends!!
Maverick, in addition to locking down this country tight like a sardine can, they all must resign! Nothing else will suffice. The insult is too grave! The outrage hurt like hell! Let's not stop demanding that they ALL RESIGN!
OPEN LETTER TO ANDREW HOLINESS ! I just saw a video a couple days ago , where a Canadian white man call Christ Must List , went to August Town and the cemetery is in deplorable conditions , the over grown scrubs and tree root busting up the graves you can look down into the holes and see the coffins so YOU and YOUR PARLIAMENT POSSE , need to donate some of that money towards fixing up that cemetery ! The people in the community said , that it was one’s maintain by the Government , who stop maintaining it because they say they don’t have no money ! 🙄
With a Populace Leadership culture, how can we actually justify getting qualified people to serve? These qualified persons are not necessarily Popular... At this rate, we soon have Social Media MPs...😂
like anywhere else this happens the only difference is the sophistication of the scheme the politicians use. The rate ppl are getting politically educated is slower than the advancement of tactics being used by politicians to mislead, steal and hold on to power, unfortunately. The faster you educate ppl on politics on what is being promised what is being done, what is good for you and your community in the long/short term the better. I've never been in Jamaican but it is the "Diamond" of the Caribbean and keep up your passion to help ppl, god bless you!
My brother you are speaking truth to power. Their political statement also suggest that the common man/ woman is too incompetent to partake in running government. They are so pompous that they have forgotten that academic qualifications are not the only measure of competence and sound leadership.
Let us stop using Most Honerable! What is HONERABLE about these Politicians? If this title was used for Marcus Gravey or Usain Bolt or Shelly Ann Fraser-Pryce, Asafa Powell, we would all respect it, because they have done great for this country, that is Honerable.🤔 These scammers have no SHAME!!
People should never be driven to enter politics to enrich themselves but rather to serve their country. Money should never be the incentive or driving force for anyone to enter politics, therefore that reasoning is faulty... I am still in disbelief!!!
Wishful thinking, Holness UK colonialist slave masters, King Charles, Boris Johnson, Tony Blair, David Cameron taught him well, with the ones next door propping him up...oh yes, there are those who know, who is who..
If they are doing it to get more capable and productive people they should wait until after the election when they get those type of people and offer them that salary package. As you rightfully said they don’t deserve it.
Well said sah!!! And if the opposition believes that this will deter the Jamaican voting machine from returning BroGad to power, they would have made a sad mistake. The Opposition had better start leading Protest marches all over Jamaica
Maverick it’s a good time to seize the opportunity and throw your hat in the ring to be PM. The opposition failed miserably to capitalize. Also the current leaders are certainly not the best minds so should we expect to see 90 % of them be fired and new people being hired ? Politicians in Jamaica don’t retire so none of the current dunce leaders will not leave. I thought there was a perception that Andrew and Nigel were Bright people. Well them expose them stupidity
I don't often agree with this man but he hit the ball out of the park with this one. The government take the people for fools and indeed pushed the envelope on their salary increase because they know it would cause a 5 minute uproar. The message that was sent to the general public is that they don't give a damn what they think very little of them. I've lost the little respect I had for these people who are selected to govern.
Very good point maverick..How they going to attract the best minds when these in office now will never leave with this triple increase in there salaries
A Kevin this...a this is the oral tracey I know. Me stop follow u sports explosion because it has became a migraine win argument radio show. I love this decisive fair analysis. ..well done maverick
You are so right my brother because away from the side tack inclusion via the senate a few of the brightest minds may be included otherwise it’s from the constituents the people a search for popular people to represent not even thinking about educational levels But the greater part of the thing is that the performance appraisal system for parliamentarians should be shared with us so we can assess on the outside as well A real hustling my brother because these increases are not in line with the growth of the economy Nigel says the other Caribbean countries have not recovered from Covid as We so they can’t do what we do with salary. We a search for the recovery from Covid can you feel it bro?
Oral. 💯 % agree with every word yuh seh bossy. One of the best takes I've heard on this issue to date. You captured all the social and political factors that facilities this type of behavior in the first place. I also believe that is a pivotal place we deh right now. If we allow this then it's like anything goes after this. Di hustling culture real iyah. But to your last point pls remember seh if you don't vote it's really a vote for the winner!
I think the government fails to realize the emotional impact upon the civil service. Today Police Teachers Nurse Soldiers and firefighters will be reconsidering their positions to maybe take their services elsewhere and the quality of our society suffers yet again
To be honest, these politicians in Jamaica will never stop down to make room for younger people to come into politics. These wicked politicians wont leave their seats until they die, because they love the free money and power. Smh.
You cannot blame them, we gave them a blank check to do whatever they want... politics in Jamaica is a family affair business and not about qualification
They want to attract and retain the best minds. The teachers, nurses, doctors and many other professionals are leaving for other countries. What was done to their salary to attract and retain the best minds?
This is down right crazy an madness going on in our country an no one to stand up for our people its terrible to see what going on people should not vote only the lord can help us my god 😭😭.
Pivotal is very important word fi real. I feel the election turn out will be catastrophically low , our democracy is on rocky foundations. The uic is still building and will need our support to grow faster. We are indeed in a precarious position.
They don't recognize the plight of poor people of Jamaica. They are worst than the scammers and i know that we will vote them back in power God help Jamaica 🇯🇲 🙏 🙌 😢😮
Looking at politics around the world you will see the notion of higher salaries for politicians does not deliver more competent people in to politics. The principal reason for entry to politics is service to the people and country not to feather your bed. The increase they are awarding themselves is vulgar and insulting to most of the populace whose struggle every day to make ends meet. The guilty should suffer at the ballot box as the excuse given is so feeble you have to laugh.
If the opposition is worth its salt, they would commit to reverse that atrocity. Holness seems to be a scammer! What they did is white collar criminality.
Love the reasoning maverick, di hustling culture bugs manifest themselves more and more with di fully dunce governance in general which clearly show they don't respect of care of the ordinary man and again you hit the nail hard about Jamaica and hits 9 days wonder mentality...smhsmh
Well said me G, me memba wen gas price did raise d labourites start riot Inna d country n it did affi roll back but dem undermine, insult n disrespect public sector workers n no actions taken.

The income tax threshold shud move from 1.5m to 3m...nothing Nigel sey mek any sense, he a educated t***f.
What do they mean by the "Best Minds?" Since when politicians need academic qualifications to enter politics? Who or what institution is going to interview individuals entering politics?
The positions do not require a resumé/qualification nor can people apply for them so how will they get the best minds?? Also, I didn't know there were issues retaining politicians because the ones who are there usually remain way past retirement age.
Hey Oral, me just come back from Rwanda, Africa. I lived in Canada for the past 31 years and mi tiad, so I wanted to find a place that reminds me of Jamaica but organize, safe and food is cheap.

Tripling salaries at a time when US is issuing advisory not to travel to Jamaica. This is bound to affect tourism. So where is the coming from to pay these grotesque increases???
This set a politician from the two party them know say them have some a the jamaican people in them pocket. So they can do or say anything and fi them cronies and supporters will agree with them . But what them a do a divide up the scarce benifits and spoils amongst themselves. But one day one day them bucket bottom a go drop out.
Well said boss. You represent many Jamaicans opinion, incuding mine. Its a win win situation for all janaican politician, the ruling government and the opposion. So at thr end of the day,its the majority of jamaicans that will lose,, especially the poor

If we allow this then it's like anything goes after this. Di hustling culture real iyah. But to your last point pls remember seh if you don't vote it's really a vote for the winner!
I think the government fails to realize the emotional impact upon the civil service. Today Police Teachers Nurse Soldiers and firefighters will be reconsidering their positions to maybe take their services elsewhere and the quality of our society suffers yet again
The sad thing is that ppl out there believe that they are rightfully entitled to such overwhelming hike👈👹
To be honest, these politicians in Jamaica will never stop down to make room for younger people to come into politics. These wicked politicians wont leave their seats until they die, because they love the free money and power. Smh.
Then they will be driven out by the people
LISTEN to me Andrew and Cohorts, GREED and POWER without CONTROL = CHAOS...JAMAICANS are getting FRUSTRATED...
@@algentles5361 true word👏🏽
Yes, they will...we the people will vote them out... we will demonstrate.. we will now be heard..
@@algentles5361 time for real action...
You cannot blame them, we gave them a blank check to do whatever they want... politics in Jamaica is a family affair business and not about qualification
Couldnt have said it better. Totally agree.
The power is in the ppl! They have to get serious & start a REVOLUTION.....
They want to attract and retain the best minds. The teachers, nurses, doctors and many other professionals are leaving for other countries. What was done to their salary to attract and retain the best minds?
This is down right crazy an madness going on in our country an no one to stand up for our people its terrible to see what going on people should not vote only the lord can help us my god 😭😭.
Total contempt of our intelligence.
You are perfectly correct, we need revolt against these political scams...
I agree. It’s a classic strategy to craft a message and say it enough and people will start to believe it.
Exactly so bro 💯
@Maverick - The question is, what are we going to do about it?
Clean man Tracey, Andrew and him crue are the pirates of the Caribbean.
Make way I am giving up my American citizenship to run for a position as a member of parliament in jamaica. That's where the money's at.🤑🤑🤑
Pivotal is very important word fi real. I feel the election turn out will be catastrophically low , our democracy is on rocky foundations. The uic is still building and will need our support to grow faster. We are indeed in a precarious position.
Facts oral facts I'm so mad
You are justice You are Jamaican my brother please we need you. Give thanks to God and you. Blessings blessings. Talk for us
Same so. Exact thing I was saying. I'm sooo sorry for us JAMAICA!!😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
OPPOSITION FAILED MISERABLY
They don't recognize the plight of poor people of Jamaica. They are worst than the scammers and i know that we will vote them back in power God help Jamaica 🇯🇲 🙏 🙌 😢😮
Looking at politics around the world you will see the notion of higher salaries for politicians does not deliver more competent people in to politics. The principal reason for entry to politics is service to the people and country not to feather your bed. The increase they are awarding themselves is vulgar and insulting to most of the populace whose struggle every day to make ends meet. The guilty should suffer at the ballot box as the excuse given is so feeble you have to laugh.
Facts yuh a talk brother 💯
If the opposition is worth its salt, they would commit to reverse that atrocity. Holness seems to be a scammer! What they did is white collar criminality.
Yes, same way Holness scam Usain money...
Love the reasoning maverick, di hustling culture bugs manifest themselves more and more with di fully dunce governance in general which clearly show they don't respect of care of the ordinary man and again you hit the nail hard about Jamaica and hits 9 days wonder mentality...smhsmh
Hit the nail on the head Zero.❤
Well said me G, me memba wen gas price did raise d labourites start riot Inna d country n it did affi roll back but dem undermine, insult n disrespect public sector workers n no actions taken. Dem sey dem attract better effective n efficient politicians n to also motivate the ones there now so how dem cyah pay public sector workers properly to motivate n attract them as well? Look pon minimum wage, dem sey it get a 4G raise but cost a living gone up n inflation ago eat out dat. 13G a foolishness, a 20G it shud a gone to. The income tax threshold shud move from 1.5m to 3m...nothing Nigel sey mek any sense, he a educated t***f.
Black unity matters all unity matters for this matter. I will vote for you brother we need you.
What do they mean by the "Best Minds?"
Since when politicians need academic qualifications to enter politics?
Who or what institution is going to interview individuals entering politics?
Every politicians n high rank public officials should have an job discription.
Time for US AS A PEOPLE TO STAND UP...DAMN...ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!!!
The positions do not require a resumé/qualification nor can people apply for them so how will they get the best minds?? Also, I didn't know there were issues retaining politicians because the ones who are there usually remain way past retirement age.
Hey Oral, me just come back from Rwanda, Africa. I lived in Canada for the past 31 years and mi tiad, so I wanted to find a place that reminds me of Jamaica but organize, safe and food is cheap. Brethen it's SOO GOOD OVA dea that me wanted to stay. Yardies, a pure foolishness dem politicians a gwan wid a Jamaica. Dem a enrich themselves and they are unaccountable. Jamaicans who are frustrated like me join me at giving back to africa (GBA) on youtuube. Since 1980 the country gone downhill and I don't think it's coming back so I'm out. Me sleep wid me door open in Rwanda.
Maverick it seems like we dunce plus tax and we can't even find the opposition, Dem look like the ruling party😢
God nah sleep enuh😢😢😢😢😢
Tired of the colonial puppet 🤡..... Vote UIC🇯🇲 #faildstate🇯🇲
Yeah, spread di word.
Best reasoning I've heard in a long time. Big up Maverick
You are so right so what we going to do about this
Great insight to this ongoing confusion in parliament.
These politicians are something else!
They are nothing else but a set of parasite...
This really really open my eyes on these politicians is al about friends and family no wife and husband should have identified ù
Exactly Sir!! Fire all of them and hire new people since the raise is to get the best minds!! Cause right now nuh “Minds” nuh inna parliament right now on both sides to how me see it!!
The thing is what are we going to do about it ? We all need to unite.
That's the truth 💯 Maverick!for real!!!
Tripling salaries at a time when US is issuing advisory not to travel to Jamaica. This is bound to affect tourism. So where is the coming from to pay these grotesque increases???
This move is to get their family and friends in this thing….straight corruption this
Real talk oral. Them insulting us big big time
This set a politician from the two party them know say them have some a the jamaican people in them pocket. So they can do or say anything and fi them cronies and supporters will agree with them . But what them a do a divide up the scarce benifits and spoils amongst themselves. But one day one day them bucket bottom a go drop out.
Well said my friend. Hopefully they will carry all the money with them. One GOD, one LORD, one MASTER.
How can we tell a scammer he is unethical in his actions for robbery of people when our own government does it to us dry eye 👀
Well said boss. You represent many Jamaicans opinion, incuding mine. Its a win win situation for all janaican politician, the ruling government and the opposion. So at thr end of the day,its the majority of jamaicans that will lose,, especially the poor
