APNU+AFC Member of Parlia-ment (MP) Coretta McDonald has said that she cannot support the government’s proposed budget, which she says feeds crumbs to the people of the country.
Speaking last Friday during the debate of the national budget, McDonald said that the budget favours the already wealthy and doesn’t support the “small men and women”.
She said the budget shows no oneness. According to McDonald, there is no explanation of equity for all in the budget and therefore, “Budget 2021 demonstrated that there is no interest in leveling Guyana’s economic playing field. Mr. Speaker for this reason, I cannot lend support to an exercise that seems to feed crumbs to our people,” the MP said.
