When people mek promise it mean that dem want something from you and dem setting you up fuh de kill. When is election time all dem parties does promise people de moon and de stars and dem would throw in de ocean if you press dem hard enough.

Once you vote fuh dem, though, dem does ask you fuh wait. And people does wait till dem deh pun dem dying bed if car ain’t knock dem down and de promise still don’t get fulfill.

Burnham did promise people a big pay increase and dem never get it. Instead he ask dem if dem want hydro. And even that dem never get.

This government promise cheap electricity and de price gone up instead of gone down. Now dem trying wid hydro and everyday it look like if that is another promise that de people would never see.
