  1. WHY Can’t THE GOVERNMENT USED THE PRISONERS TO FARM THE WASTE LAND SO TO MAKE FOOD PRICE LOWER FOR THE JAMAICAN PEOPLES , AND AT THE SAME TIME THE PRISONERS ARE LEARNING HOW TO FARM SO WHEN THEY GET OUT OF PRISON THEY ALREADY TRADE🖤💚💛🇯🇲👍🏻🙏🏻

    1. Our prisoners are the only ones who sits in prison comfortable with their cellphones.

  2. MR. HOLNESS, DO NOT LIE, YOU DONT UNDERSTAND AND WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND, WHY, BECAUSE YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN TO BED WITHOUT BREAKFAST, LUNCH, NOR DINNER. MR. PRIME MINISTER YOUR NET WORTH IS $192 MILLION. SHAME ON YOU

  3. time to chain up the prisoners together 3×3 to clean drain, chop bushes, farm up lands, stop having them waistng time wile the country going down

  4. How can you say you understand you’re have never put your foot in someone else shoes to have to be in some one shoes you can feel the burn or squeezed .you need to stop the people at the war from charging poor people tremble time the goods such as food in them barrels for clearances it s a disgrace .

  5. How can it pass when all the geriatric them drill dit down in a parliament, snoring as they pass there bedtime they are blighting the young people from getting a job in the house with a younger brain, not one of them does not even know how to turn on a laptop. Because they relied on the Secretary their great-gran should be reading them bedtime stories

  6. All mi ago seh is dat JPS stay winning. Nuh form a losing nuh inna dem ting.
    Future eva bright and pocket eva energetic!

  7. The NIS pension is just to pay for light and water bill. Heeeelp. Need heeeelp. Can’t buy medication. The JADEP medication assistance is not always available to us ,so we have to buy direct from the pharmacy. It’s high time NIS PENSION BE INCREASED

  8. Minimum wage needs to raise to $12000 because a lot of person’s hiring house helpers has no conscience if the can’t afford to pay do the chores for themselves.. also the government do not care for the poor them just a talk out them mouth and that’s it

    1. Exactly the likkle 9,000 weh raise it to everything get sky high that cyaa buy nth is like we jus work fi go bk a work kmt

  9. Time to enforce the “HARD LABOUR” part on the prisoners mek dem work on farm land “DO SUM”

  10. The lands need to be till to cut importation of goods in the country but the government and opposition party lacks vision for Jamaica. Eloquent speech can’t help the economy to go back where it once was where the USD was less for a JMD.

  11. We don’t need money from the government like that Teach to fish instead of fish for them and raise minimum wage

  12. WHAT IS THE GOVERNMENT GOING TO GET BACK FROM THOSE RECEIVING THIS ASSISTANCE .
    THE PRIME NUMBER COULD BE SETTING UP THE GOVERNMENT FOR THIS “ONE” TIME ✋ TO BECOMING A REGUAL EXPECTATION.

    GOOD LUCK TO ALL.

  13. Mr Prime Minister, thank you for the 20% you offered on light bill. For the first month my light bill dropped the 20%. Last month (and this is not a Joke) my light bill went up by 20% of my original bill. Am now paying more than $2000 more than i have ever paid for light bill. Its a shame.
    Why are we even thinking of handing out money to people.
    Why dont we pay them a descent salary so they can be better able to finance themselves.
    Yet still we are still trying to figure out why innercity people steal light and water they honestly cant afford it. Here I am with meterd light and metered water and struggling to do so. SMH

  14. I really recommend removal of tax on patties, a meal that the poorest of working people can afford..2 patties and a drink being priced so near to almost $1000.00 is sad indeed…

  15. Andrew(and all other politicians)doesn’t understand, he has never been in poverty, if the government pays for your bills, you will pay for it in the end. Higher inflation, simple economics

  16. To every Jamaican:

    “If you trust Government. You don’t know History.”
    — Luke Rudkowski

    “The 9 most terrifying words in the English language is ‘I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.”
    — Ronald Reagan

    “If you do not take interest in the affairs of your government, then you are doomed to live under the rule of fools.”
    — Plato

  17. Sir,
    The country does NOT need short term solutions. You need to Reduce crime rate
    Stabilize our society
    Make way for greater interventions
    Create jobs.

  18. But this too will pass, said Andrew.

    We need better-paid jobs or a raise in salary. We need more jobs and opportunities if the country is gonna move forward.

    Governments are foolish and selfish.
