Protest Canceled? Government Denies Interference | Trinidad and Tobago News

The Public Utilities Minister denies any government meddling in a canceled union protest, calling claims of intimidation baseless and urging the union to speak directly with police. The dispute centers on a contested wage agreement—union insists on a 10% raise plus cost-of-living adjustments over six years, while the Minister says no such deal was ever offered. Police revoked protest permission hours before the event citing State of Emergency rules, sparking accusations of pressure from above. The union vows to keep pushing, hinting at future actions targeting TSTT board members’ business ties. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
