These are two election promises that I have had in my back pocket for some time. Mrs Persad-Bissessar was very clear on these during the PP Government's campaign, and everyone agrees that they are good ideas that would make a huge physiological difference to local politics. The bonus is that they cost nothing to implement.
Simply:
1. Whatever happened to declaring a fixed election date, US-style
2. Changing our constitution to allow a prime minister only two terms.
Since I'm sure these have not been forgotten, I would like to know what's taking so long.
