How uno get up and voted for a party that failed in health , security and education? How is that possible? This would never happen in Barbados. The jlp will continue to win because most Jamaicans don't care about those things I mentioned. Figures don't lie. The facts are there

Andrew. This is deadass your THIRD TERMMMM bro. There are kids who have been alive for a decade and know no other prime minster but YOU! Pleaseeeeee stop the blame game and get to it.

The events that took place in September 2025 can be analyzed from two competing perspectives. On one side, the people of Jamaica heard our proposals for progressive governance of integrity that is accessible to all Jamaicans, and it resonated with them. The people heard our plans to build society from the base upwards, rather than the top-down approach, and it resonated with them.

If we are to understand many of the challenges Jamaica faces today, we must honestly reflect on the policy decisions made in the 1990s by the People’s National Party, which led to the Financial Sector Adjustment Company crisis. When the financial sector collapsed, the government at the time created FINSAC to bail out failing institutions, and that intervention cost the country approximately 42 percent of our entire economy. As a result, Jamaica’s national debt rose dramatically, from about 72 percent of GDP to nearly 130 percent within a few years. At one point, almost 70 percent of the taxes collected by the government had to be used simply to pay interest on that debt. This meant there was very little money left to maintain roads, repair hospitals, build schools, or invest in the infrastructure our people depend on every day. For many years, the country had to focus on stabilizing the economy and restoring fiscal discipline so that we could rebuild our financial strength. My commitment is to ensure that Jamaica never returns to those kinds of policy decisions that placed such a heavy burden on our people and our economy.
