A party that promised to take an independent path and build trust went on a crazy excursion with the notorious PNC raising old fears of a return to a Burnham-style dictatorship.

Get your backside of of here. The AFC has nothing to explain. The PNC is a surrogate of the PPP. That is a historically established fact of life. All the thieving and murdering of the last 60 years have been under the PNC and PPP watch. The PPP is now busy bringing in India and China to thief off everything left. Only the AFC can stop these thieves and have them locked up.
Billy Ram Balgobin is a stupid old goat. The AFC has no explanation to do. Billy go back to grade school and finish grade 5.
The PPP has to explain and tell the people of Guyana where is all the money they have been thiefin the past 22 years.
Where is all the money? what has the PPP been doing with all this money the have been stealing?

Quit the bull. The AFC has to have a partner to be effective since their vote count is meaningless without voting with one or the other group. Where has that option arose to vote with the PPP?
Do you think dog whistling about "Burnham style" dictatorship has any resonance when we are in the thrall of a corrupt, autocratic regime, bent on crony capitalism through friends and family enrichment and whose kleptocratic agents show no let up to their thievery?
A no confidence vote is quite appropriate in light of the PPP intransigence to changes to their governing strategy to allow for transparency and accountability. Imagine we have a tax office that is really a one family enterprise of a man and his children running everything. Then there is the Finance ministry being audited by the wife of the finance minister. These are not merely corrupt but in your face disrespect!
Take a look at the truck driver towards the end of the video. The PPP says the chinese cannot find truck drivers in Guyana so they have to import them.
These are hi-tech trucks the roads are also from an alien planet and thus it requires special drivers who cannot be trained in Guyana.
This is how all the foreign investments in Guyana are benefiting the poor Guyanese.

Billy, once again you take it upon yourself to presume how the electorate feel about the AFC.
The AFC has no problem explaining its decision to the people.
The issue is not whether the AFC is an independent party. The issue is the PPP's rampant corruption, cronyism, nepotism, self-aggrandizement and arrogance.
The AFC will explain to the people why it's high time the PPP be voted out.
Come hell or high water, the PPP has to go.

* Well said Billy Ram! Well said. The AFC has reneged on their promises to their supporters. They have revealed themselves to be lying, deceitful and untrustworthy.
* The AFC and their partner the PNC referred to the Guyanese people as "collateral damage" when they cut the 2012 budget and caused grave hardship to many Guyanese.
* In the next election the good people of Berbice will resoundingly reject the cunning AFC.

You and him are nutters. Where has the option to side on a prudent decision with the PPP arose? You are dreaming if the people in berbice will bend the knees to those crooks when the are under extreme duress neglect of basic infrastructure, protections from criminals, job options etc. People are not leaving the region because it is a center of economic activity. It is the center of neglect and these are the PPP's native support base. They are in for a trouncing and it is berbicians who will do them in.

OK Ray and Gilly.
Where are the PPP yokels? Explain to us why Bai Shai ling can ship over 4000 truck load of logs out of the country yearly and they have no license to export ( hence they pay no royalties) and we are left with thousands of acres of waste lands!. We need this corrupt regime who has to be taking large kickbacks as the African leaders are taking since that is how these companies practice.
As I noted yesterday, they follow no laws because they can always pay off a corrupt official to ignore the law. I think this is in need of citizen action. We need to stop these trucks from moving and start spiking trees to stop the chain saws from hewing them down.

What kind of man is he to refer to his wife in that manner?. No, it's not his problem. He thinks it licence for his perversion and adulterous life. He brought it to this forum for discussion.

The point being made is Berbice is missing some 16k votes this time. Mean while, the PPP has not changed it's corrupt ways and the county bears the burnt of its negligence given it is rural, made up of heaps of poor people and whose livelihood is tied to subsistence farming, fishing and as laborers in the sugar industry. Sugar is dead, piracy takes at least a few fishermen each month, criminality is rampant, junkies exist in every village and no industry of any substantial job opportunity has come in. The Chinese are pillaging the place and they are making more than the budget of the county in their thievery yet they pay no royalty and hire no one. Chalk that up to a vote count for the PPP en mass only if the place is populated by sheep.

I would not say he has a low IQ. He has been hanging around people with low IQs for too long so he thinks himself a genius. Normal people makes him feel inferior hence he begins the self inflation with words like "losers" and pretensions to sophistication with his threads on ostentatious consumption.
The point being made is Berbice is missing some 16k votes this time.
Stormy:
* So what if 16,000 Berbician votes are missing ?
* Let's assume all those 16K voters are PPP supporters.
CHECK THIS:
* In region 6 alone the PPP(32,360 votes) defeated the AFC(11,634 votes) by 20,726 votes.
BOTTOM LINE:
* The PPP will still win Berbice.
* Anyway, President Ramotar, his party and PPP supporters are determined to win back a majority in the upcoming elections. The 48.6% the PPP received in 2011 was an aberration, a deviation from the normal. The PPP will win 50+% in the next election like they did in 1992, 1997, 2001 and 2006.

What supporters will come out in strong numbers? why have they been failing to come out the past 3 successive elections??
Why are more indians migrating and dying to flee Guyana under the PPP's oppressive and corrupt rule. That is the question you have to ask yourself.
What supporters will come out in strong numbers? why have they been failing to come out the past 3 successive elections??
LETS US REVISIT THE PPP WINNING % IN THE LAST 5 ELECTIONS
1992---53.5%
1997---55.3%
2001---53.0%
2006---54.0%
2011---48.6%
========
* It is true that the turnouts in the last 3 elections were below the 1992 and 1997 levels.
* But the number that matters is the % of votes the PPP received.
* THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE.
* The only election in which the PPP did not win a majority was the 2011 election---and that was an aberration---a deviation from the normal.
* In the next election---President Ramotar, his party and PPP supporters will work assiduously to ensure that the PPP returns to a majority victory like they did in 1992, 1997, 2001 and 2006.

And the PPP peaked in 1997 with 55 percent. Say it ain't so, Rev.
You know why the PPP peaked in 1997? Cheddi Jagan died the year before and Janet Jagan was Presidential Candidate. Sympathy votes for the Jagans, plus admiring votes for a first-time woman candidate.
The PPP will never perform like that again. It's downhill all the way to the dunghill this time.
THE CORRUPT AND UNDEMOCRATIC PPP MUST GO!
