I will disagree having Bharat Jagdeo in any form of National Government ,he had his stint of two and a half term Presidency and is corrupt. No Putinisque for Guyana.

What makes you think any current member can be trusted to form a national government? Granger and his goons are not fit to form any government. They are setting a shining example of how to be a bully and stay in power. No Putinisque for Guyana. I do agree with you here. However, you should first look at the past political events of the PPP and PNC and look at the current situation and tell the whole world who acted and who is acting like Putin and Kim Jung Un combined.

You need to read up more on Guyana ,both the PNC and PPP are to be blamed for Guyana troubles.

The discussion here is forming a national government and trust. The reason that both parties are responsible for Guyana's troubles is race dominance. This attitude has been entrenched in the psyche of the people. It is the PNC since 1964 who have shown that they do not play fair and will no accept defeat. A minority of 29% should not be allowed to dictate the lives of 71% using force.

Typical East Indian pun tap Syndrome.

Since 1950 Guyana has a Parliamentary, winner takes all political system. There is no such thing as constituent system.  Prior to 1950, the British had direct rule by a Governor General. That system ended in May, 1966.

By Constituent System, I mean the First-Past-The-Post (FPTP) which is also known as the single-member plurality or (SMP) electoral system.

The US, UK, Canada, Pakistan and India use it.

The odd thing ,Burnham died five years after the 1980 constitution was foisted on the people ,with a bogus referendum ,40 years after it's still there with little tinkering.

Democracy for me is where you have political freedom and equality. How about you Abu?

Exactly, but it is something that require a level of trust that don't exist in Guyana primarily due to PNC rigging and frigging.  PPP got the boot in 2015 only to install something worse.  Now, when Jango bais loose, they making all kinds of ridiculous accusations.

The non confidence vote should have taken us towards what you described if those parasites would have left office as required.  

Imagine if PPP come into office knowing a few votes can get them ass kicked out of power just like they did to PNC.

Clinton sold the USA to China by giving them Most Favored Nation status. Trump is correcting the ills of that evil now.

Where are the products for Trump's daughter being manufactured? Please don't give up that 9 to 5 Wall Street job of making coffee for the staff and serving in supplies made in China. Pray that China does not dump the US currency on the open market.

Invanka Trump

It's called 'first past the post'.. Georgetown had eight constuencies and PNC used to win all of them.

Bibi who claims to be an expert on Guyanese politics, with connections to the top people in many parties doesn't know about the electoral system that kept the PPP in power in colonial days.  It was nice of Ramakant to tell her a bit about it.  Cheddi agreed to a proportional representation (PR)system that took effect in 1964 and led to the coalition government of the PNC and UF.  Much has been written about Cheddi's approval of the PR system that is not used in the UK, USA or Canada but is in many other parts of the world in one form or the other.  Cheddi was a consummate democrat and those who knew him fully understand why he agreed to the new system.  It is a more democratic system as it preserves the principle of one person, one vote.  In a PR system Trump would not be president and Trudeau would not currently be Prime Minister.  In the US, Hillary Clinton got more votes than Trump and, in Canada, Andrew Scheer got more votes than Trudeau.

You covered everything and described it nicely like a professor.

I don't trust people who talk about national government.  They are either dreamers or scammers.  No replacement for democracy.  Count the damn votes and declare the winner. Tired of all the tricks and scams going on. 

 

Our dearly beloved Guyana, land of tricksters and scammers. Isn't that why so many fled to distant shores?
