This  is more than sufficient proof that the  joint opposition is vendetta driven , and will stop at anything to secure narrow political points,many political commentators are saying , the  writing   maybe on the wall, a snap election maybe inevitable

True true........in their haste to be spiteful it doesn't occur to them that even their own supporters will be affected 

Contract workers are friends of the PPP and they are being kept on leash.

The proposed  Budget Cuts by the opposition would affect citizens in every facet of the society, the constituents across the political divide will all be affected, at the end of the day, Guyana would be affected.

There are friends of the AFC and APNU that are contract workers as well. The Amerindians are whose friends? the hinterland electrification programme which the targeted will provide electricity to thousands of amerindians. But then again Greenidge said the sugar workers are the PPP's problems so i guess the amerindians are the PPP's problems as well

Sorry that you and Councie would loose your jobs.

The Budget cuts would affect  all Guyana, the Guyanese populace are seeing the true nature of the opposition,totally anti-working class, and is literally putting them on the breadline

You know the Guyana constitution says the joint opposition cannot cut the budget, right ?

Rev

Even though,the joint opposition knows to their gut that they can't cut the budget, they  are  still trying ti inflict harm on the Guyanese economy

Gov’t accuses APNU of ‘racial slurs’, clashes over planned budget cuts.

The Government on Friday night lashed out at the main opposition A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) of promoting racism with regards to those who it is targeting in the planned cuts to the 2013 National Budget.

Housing and Water Minister Irfaan Ali, during a live programme on state TV questioned the opposition’s motive with references made by its executive Carl Greenidge at a news conference earlier Friday.

Greenidge told reporters that the aim of cutting financing for contract workers from this year’s budget is based on the fact that the government is employing contract employees based on race and political allegiance.

But Ali lashed out at Greenidge’s comments describing them as “heavy” and racially-charged.

He questioned how could Greenidge claimed that the public sector is politicized and ethnically biased, when there are hundreds of Indo and Afro Guyanese in key positions, based on their qualifications, citing his own mother who spent 35 years serving the education sector, before becoming deputy Chief Education Officer and Current Commissioner General of the Guyana Revenue Authority, who has high ACCA qualifications and served the GRA for over 3 decades.

Ali believes that the opposition is playing a dirty game by plugging racism.

Finance Minister Dr Ashni Singh who also appeared on the programme. Questioned the Alliance For Change’s rationale behind its muliti-billion dollar planned cuts to the budget.

He believes these cuts will dig deep into the administration’s development agenda with the CJIA Expansion, the four-lane highway, the ICT programme, LCDS, youth training programme, GuySuCo, GPL and the specialty hospital all on the AFC chopping block.

He is of the view this is aimed at stagnating development.

Singh also questioned the motive behind cutting the Guyana Elections Commission’s funding even as the agency prepares for local government elections.
