Daly Bread: Tied up in Tobago; PNM and PDP should try one more time with 12 seats
On the date corresponding to today in last year’s Carnival calendar, I was tied up in Tobago with pan business, enjoying the morning after our attendance at the medium band 2020 Panorama finals which was held in Tobago.
Now all of Tobago is tied up. There is the deadlock in its House of Assembly following a six-six tie in the Tobago House of Assembly (THA) elections between the People’s National Movement (PNM) and the Progressive Democratic Patriots (PDP).
